Multicultural Reasoning and the Appreciation of Art.
Stout, Candace Jesse
Studies in Art Education, v38 n2 p96-111 Win 1997
Explicates a multicultural approach to art education that enhances critical thinking. Grounds this approach in the philosophical principles of constructivism that emphasize the student's construction of meaning rather than the passive transmission of knowledge from a teacher. Discusses the possibility of multicultural reasoning and its incorporation into art education. (MJP)
