The class itself models several teaching and learning situations and strategies for both elementary and secondary levels of instruction. Students work in groups, with partners and alone. Peer tutoring is used for part of the creative movement/dance unit. Students are given the opportunity each semester to talk with an artist currently exhibiting at the art gallery. Students are expected to develop sequential arts-based lessons formally, thematically and experientially, drawing on in-class situations modeled for them. Students are made aware of Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Model and the importance of matching teaching and learning styles.
