Attention Artists!
Are you interested in creating a residency focused on teaching 21st Century skills such as Creativity, Collaboration, Cultural Understanding, and Critical Thinking? Then the next Teaching Artist Institute (TAI) Seminar is for you! TAI Seminar 1: Bringing Your Art Into the Classroom will help teaching artists connect their art form to 21st Century Skills through the development of an artist in residence program.
More info:
TAI Seminar 1: Bringing Your Art Into the Classroom will begin with an orientation meeting on June 10, 2016 (see link for all dates). All teachers (PreK-12, special areas, etc.) and teaching artists are welcome to apply!
This unique seminar is based on a collaborative teaching approach. Teachers and teaching artists are invited to apply as a team. Individual applicants will be matched with an appropriate partner. Each TAI Team will design and implement a residency in which teachers gain arts skills and artists gain valuable teaching skills. The residency will be field tested and co-taught by the TAI Team in the teacher’s home school.
