Introduction Arts teachers help students develop knowledge and fundamental skills while weaving in opportunities for creativity and independence. The challenge is to achieve a balance between teacher-led instruction and active, self-directed learning. To achieve mastery, students cannot be passive consumers of knowledge; they must actively construct and apply what they learn. How do teachers help students develop as artists? - Assignments reflect increasing knowledge, skills, and experience
- Instruction is thoughtfully sequenced to support student development
- Artistic roles are age- and level-appropriate
- Students experience increasing mastery and autonomy in the arts
