Description: "Sponsored by the National Art Education Association and assembled by an internationally known group of art educators, this thirty-six chapter handbook provides an overview of the remarkable progress that has characterized the field of Art Education in recent decades. Organized into six sections, it profiles and integrates the following elements of this relatively new and loosely coupled field: history, policy, learning, curriculum and instruction, assessment, and competing perspectives. Because the field of art education is relatively new and loosely coupled, this handbook provides those inside and more importantly outside the field an invaluable snapshot of both its boundaries and its current content." "Like other research handbooks, the Handbook of Research and Policy in Art Education provides an indispensable reference volume for scholars, policy makers, and advanced students in the field."--BOOK JACKET
