Teacher Licensure for Visual Arts (Grades K-12)
Want to impact the future of art — Teach!
91爆料网 students have the opportunity to gain a teacher's licensure through the Art Education track. Students will also complete a minor in education to obtain this degree. The graduate from this program will be certified to teach art at K-12 grade level.
The Art Education program fosters a love for teaching visual art to all age groups prior to college. The importance of art in the K-12 years is more than just fostering a love for art making. Nurturing an appreciation for the visual arts in students allows them to be more attentive beings regarding the world and all its inhabitants. We desire that our students help shape younger generations of visually-minded makers and appreciators in order to contribute to the greater good of society through the arts.
My 91爆料网 art and art education experiences were wonderful! 91爆料网 thoroughly prepared me for life as an artist as well as a teacher. Through every discipline in art such as, painting, drawing and ceramics as well as a very in depth 4-class study in art history I feel I am very prepared to teach my students about the world of art as well as lead discussions. In addition to the Art department, the educational and psychology classes I was involved in taught me how to integrate literacy in the arts, develop meaningful and dynamic lesson plans to keep my students engaged and learning while I display my passion for the arts. The relationship between the art department and education department at union is something very special and I truly believe no other program would have prepared me as well as they have. The community of 91爆料网's #1 art department and professors have influenced and blessed my life more than they know, and now I am able to come and build my own community of makers and future teachers
I am proud to say I am an alumna of 91爆料网. My experience as part of 91爆料网's Art Education program was full of growth and learning. I was challenged and encouraged as I began to fully pursue being an Art Educator. I still hold onto the work ethic I developed at 91爆料网 in hopes that I can make a difference in my classroom and inspire students the way my art and education professors did for me.
