CES seminars, workshops,
courses and institutes are based on the books we have written and the
books we are writing.
During more than 25 years working with teachers and students of
all ages under an enormous range of conditions, we have continued
to learn more and more about how to integrate the visual and
performing arts into the general curriculum, how to stimulate
and maintain student motivation and involvement, and how to
gather community support for what and how a school is educating
its children. These things are what we teach.
The wonderful thing about arts-in-education, however, is that there is no
end to the learning. Some of our current research includes
- the
best way to use the arts to teach history, geography, math and
science effectively.
- how to use fine
children’s literature as the basis of an interdisciplinary
thematic curriculum unit
- how the designing of
sets, costumes and stage properties can serve as the basis for
developing an interdisciplinary thematic curriculum unit
- how playwrighting can be
acknowledged and accepted as a truly transformative strategy in
literacy
- what the study and
practice of dramaturgy can offer to improve the quality of high
school theatre productions and enrich the general education of all
those involved
- how, through active
involvement in theatre production, junior high school students can
become active contributors to the school community
- how classroom
applications of the Theory of Multiple Intelligences can actually
transform the way teachers teach and the way students learn
