Title: Art education in a climate of reform
First published: 2008
Description: "Art Education in a Climate of Reform first analyzes the changes in the social context of art and how these changes have impacted K-12 and university-level education. These changes, plus the current culture of accountability, have led many arts educators to question the goal or message of an arts-based curriculum. Charles Dorn and Penelope Orr reaffirm art's place in education by describing it as not just a discipline or form but an idea, even a language. Finally, they contend that art is a social enterprise essential to a complete education."--Jacket.
