Fostering Genuine Communication
Description
Arts teachers communicate with students, and students communicate with each other, in respectful ways that encourage communication of original ideas through the arts. In this session, participants meet a dance teacher whose students draw choreographic inspiration from poetry and sign language. A visual art teacher gives her commercial art class a fanciful assignment that enables them to communicate a concrete idea through several visual media. A theater teacher encourages student interaction around the dramatization and staging of fables. Finally, a vocal music teacher asks her students to use "descriptive praise" to critique the performance of a fellow singer.
