Download or read book Perspectives on Learning Assessment in the Arts in Higher Education written by Diane Leduc and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on theoretical and empirical insights from art teachers in Canada and Europe, this edited volume explores the question of how learning in the arts can be effectively and fairly assessed in the context of higher education. The chapters consider a rich variety of assessment practices across music, visual and plastic arts, performing arts, design, fashion, dance and music and illustrate how knowledge, competencies, skills and progress can be viably and fairly assessed. Contextual challenges to assessment are also considered in depth, and particular attention is paid to the challenges of reconciling teaching in the arts, aimed at an intuitive transformation of the student, and assessing learning that takes on its meaning in subjectivity and sensitivity. This text will benefit researchers, academics and educators in higher education with an interest in assessment in the artistic disciplines and in the topic of creativity more broadly. Those specifically interested in educational assessment policy and the visual arts will also benefit from this book.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several specific objectives have had wide recognition in the arts community, namely: to broaden the audience for the performing arts, to determine the applicability of sophisticated tools of marketing to the problem of generating demand for the arts, to find the best predictors of arts attendance, and to develop strategies that will appeal to those who, by these predictors, are potential attenders. This research report summarizes a study conducted in 1977 by Alan R. Andreasen and Russell W. Belk. The investigators collected new audience data in a carefully controlled group of surveys in four southern cities (Atlanta, Baton Rouge, Columbia, and Memphis), and applied to these data a number of sophisticated measuring and marketing techniques to discover efficient and effective methods for inducing marginal attenders of the performing arts to become frequent patrons. Although no hitherto untried means to this end were uncovered, this publication makes advanced techniques more comprehensible and accessible to arts administrators. In addition, by analyzing characteristics that move or do not move people to attend performing arts events, and from that analysis deriving strategies capable of altering factors that lead to nonattendance, enough practical conclusions were reached to recommend an extended program of experimentation in the four cities studied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the work of social scientists, public policy analysts, policy makers, and arts-funding decision makers. The contributors seek to address serious issues confronting the future of the arts in America by defining the role of social science research in the formulation of public policies. The chapters reflect the diverse disciplinary perspectives and methodologies which make up the broad enterprise of arts research and cover a wide array of current issues in arts research and public policy, including: the current state of arts and arts education research; arts participation by ethnic cultures, baby-boomers, and older adults; emerging patterns of aesthetic choice; public arts policy in the future, and conditions for the growth and effective use of arts research. Academics and students in political science, policy analysis, sociology, economics, arts administration, and education, policy makers, and arts administrators will find The Future of the Arts a valuable resource. The contributors conclude that the future of the arts in America will be shaped by a wide array of forces. The challenge is in avoiding passive reactiveness to these trends, assessing their short-term and long-term influences, and strategically developing policy options that are within the decision-making control of leadership sectors in the complex arts policy world. Until recently, the political context of public arts policy has hindered the development and utilization of arts research. In many ways, this book illustrates the promise of research-based policy formulation for the arts in America.

This book was released on 2014-09-08 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of the hybrid artist-educator in schools and communities over the past fifty years has evolved significantly. Although education reform and political pressures during the last five decades have frequently interrupted steady and sustained arts education programming in the United States-especially in theatre and dance-the teaching artist today performs an important role in numerous educational contexts. Over the past fifteen years, the work of teaching artists has received growing professional attention and research: the Association of Teaching Artists (ATA) was founded in 1998 to support, advocate for, strengthen and serve the teaching artist profession. This volume, focused on teaching artists in dance and theatre disciplines, expands this developing area of inquiry and reveals topographies for teaching in and through these arts disciplines that have, until this text, been examined separately. Directed toward the last decade's growth and professionalization, the book asks: where and how is teaching artistry in dance and theatre happening? What is guiding, supporting, or complicating the work of teaching artists in dance and theatre arts today? What training and preparation do teaching artists receive? How do teaching artists effectively address the cultural diversity of the communities they serve? What are the political and economic influences that impact the work and delivery of teaching artistry? What has been learned on a large scale about the hybrid lives and work of teaching artists in dance and theatre arts? In sum, what is the status of the teaching artist today? This book examines pedagogical, artistic, and professional issues for two performing arts disciplines by using the voices and experiences of each form's practitioners and those who prepare them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: n recent years, the post structuralist theories seem to have created a split in theatrological research. But, as André Helbo analyses in this book , a dialectic theory of the semiotic and the symbolic exchange bring to light a specific paradigm. From his wide experience as a semiotician and a theatrologist, the author has developed an analysis for the theory of spectacle. Focusing his study on a critical theory of the performing arts, and examining the fundamental controversies, he then offers new perspectives and new instruments of analysis: the social aspects, readability/visibility, coherence, the spectacle contract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Past studies examined the role of performing arts within a STEM-based curriculum, but there has been little research to date on how to fully integrate the two into one unified program at the higher education level. A qualitative study was conducted utilizing a phenomenological approach vis-à-vis four focus groups with students engaged in the Performing Arts Scholarship Program at Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY. The commitment-trust theory of relationship marketing as well as self-efficacy theory were considered to ground the theoretical framework surrounding the success of the program and the experiences of a sample of 951 Performing Arts Scholars. Entering its fourth year of existence in fall 2022, the RIT Performing Arts Scholarship Program continues to evolve. Very little data has been collected as of the time of this study on the success of this program or the shared experiences of the students participating in performing arts at RIT. The results of this study confirmed that students are seeking to further blur the boundaries between the STEM and liberal arts degrees they are pursuing and their talents and passions in the performing arts. The researcher also uncovered how this program can be strengthened through the first-hand stories of participants involved in the music, theatre, dance, and technical production opportunities at RIT. Using those findings, recommendations are presented for other institutions seeking implement a similar model for STEAM education all while resolving certain tensions between STEM and STEAM to potentially come closer to finding a solid balance between the two."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, concerns about dancers’ health and the consequences of physical training have increased considerably. The physical requirements and type of training dancers need to achieve to reach their highest level of performance while decreasing the rate of severe injuries has awakened the necessity of more scientific knowledge concerning the area of dance, in part considering its several particularities. Scientific Perspectives and Emerging Developments in Dance and the Performing Arts is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research designed to reduce the gap between the scientific theory and the practice of dance. While highlighting topics such as burnout, mental health, and sport psychology, this publication explores areas such as nutrition, psychology, and education, as well as methods of maintaining the general wellbeing and quality of the health, training, and performance of dancers. This book is ideally designed for dance experts, instructors, sports psychologists, researchers, academicians, and students.

Download or read book Practice as Research in the Arts (and Beyond) written by Robin Nelson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project addresses the contexts of Practice as Research and how to undertake it. This second iteration updates thinking and practices but sustains a direct and clear approach on how to become a practitioner-researcher. New features include an extension of range “beyond” the arts and a case for intra-disciplinarity in Practice Research as an influence in the formation of the “future university”. A comparison is made between Artistic Research and Practice Research recognizing that research through practices with being-doing-knowing is central to both. Acknowledging the current crisis in legitimation, a broad view is taken of how things might be known by an onto-epistemology for the twenty-first century foregrounding the bodymind but sustaining rationality and community by way of Other/other dialogic exchange. Perspectives from around the world in Part II offset the more Eurocentric emphasis in Part I.

Download or read book Audience Engagement in the Performing Arts written by Ben Walmsley and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the concept of audience engagement from a number of complementary perspectives, including cultural value, arts marketing, co-creation and digital engagement. It offers a critical review of the existing literature on audience research and engagement, and provides an overview of established and emerging methodologies deployed to undertake research with audiences. The book focusses on the performing arts, but draws from a rich diversity of academic fields to make the case for a radically interdisciplinary approach to audience research. The book’s underlying thesis is that at the heart of audience research there is a mutual exchange of value wherein audiences ideally play the role of strategic partners in the mission fulfilment of arts organisations. Illustrating how audiences have traditionally been side-lined, homogenised and vilified, it contends that the future paradigm of audience studies should be based on an engagement model, wherein audiences take their rightful place as subjects rather than objects of empirical research.
