Status of the Visual Arts in Early Education.

Colbert, Cynthia B.

Art Education, v37 n4 p28-31 Jul 1984

To learn what visual arts education training early childhood and elementary teachers are receiving, questionnaires were mailed to 50 state departments of education. Results showed that children below the age of six are being taught by teachers with little training in the visual arts. Teacher education is needed. (RM)
