Education Week Webinar
Perhaps you joined in on the webinar that was held this past Tuesday, July 19th, on Integrating the Arts Across the Curriculum. I was glad I had the hour to listen to Sandra Ruppert, director of the Arts Ed Partnership and Shana Habel, dance demonstration teacher, Los Angeles Unified School District and co-president of the California Dance Education Association. The presentation was moderated by Erik Robelen, assistant editor from Education Week.
We know that integrating the arts is not a new idea. In fact, I was doing graduate work in 1974 when there was very little research available. Today I did a google search using “arts integration” as the key words and got 47,700,000 results. WOW! Those promoting the idea say that it is gaining a stronger foothold.
