Art Education and the Possibility of Social Change.

Albers, Peggy M.

Art Education, v52 n4 p6-11 Jul 1999

From a 2-year ethnographic study in a sixth-grade art classroom, explores two different roles of art education: (1) to acknowledge that as students become literate in art they demonstrate their ideologies in their artwork; and (2) to recognize how art can initiate discussions to help students transform their beliefs.
