=Multi-Day Teacher Workshop: "Making Meaning—A Studio Approach to Teaching and Learning"=

====What goes on in students’ minds when they make art? What thought processes are put in motion through material manipulation, design, and aesthetic engagement? Get ready to learn by doing in this three-day workshop where you will discover and reflect on how art making promotes the application of prior knowledge, innovation, analysis, problem solving, evaluation, and other critical thinking skills. Participants will explore a variety of media (e.g., drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, digital, etc.) to reflect on making and learning. No special skills are required, only an open mind and a willingness to experiment.====

====One graduate credit will be offered for this program for an additional $100. Please send an e-mail to teacherworkshops@artic.edu to indicate your interest in this offering.====
