About this Event
Please join Sarah Tambucci and Pamela Krakowski in the study of Pam’s book, Entering a Child’s World. Wendy Milne will also join us as the moderator. This book explores the teaching of art in both the classroom and museum settings. Educators who work with elementary and middle-level students as well as special populations such as preschool, senior citizens and museum visitors will find valuable and insightful information in this book. Higher Education instructors will find many of Pam’s ideas informative to preparing art education students entering the field.
Throughout the book, Pam explores narrative sensibilities that allow her to listen to her students' thoughts, feelings, interests and concerns. Pam shares, “Over time, I began to see a dynamic tension between (normative and narrative pedagogies) . . . What my students have to say is important, and I have a body of knowledge, skills, and concepts that I believe are important for them to learn.” With curiosity, caring and respect, Pam has found ingenious ways to enter the children's worlds of imagination and play, interweaving lessons of art and artmaking into what matters most to her students — young and old.
