Teaching Through Art

Curated series of tools, frameworks, demonstrations, and prompts designed especially for the needs of educators from across a variety of disciplines teaching school level learners. With an aim to encourage pedagogical methods that promote visual understanding, critical thinking, and enquiry-based learning, these tools are designed to be adapted to a wide variety of classroom needs. Through these resources we hope to build a pedagogical ecosystem where teaching through art is an everyday practice.

The tools have been organised according to the stages of learning in the classroom process:

SPARKING INTEREST

How to introduce a topic through an artwork/image? Use these tools when starting a chapter or introducing new topics to catalyse interest, cultivate curiosity, and connect pre-existing knowledge to new lessons by using an artwork or image as a prompt.

DELVING IN

How to sustain or reinvigorate interest through artworks/images? These tools will help elicit questions, encourage curiosity, and spark debate and discussion about a topic, allowing learners opportunities to dig deeper into topics of interest.

RESPONSE

How to use images/artworks as prompts for eliciting creative responses from learners? These ideas can be used as prompts for projects or assignments that learners create as a response to different topics in creative, visual, and experimental ways.
