Studies show that when students have more choice in how they learn, they gain confidence. This confidence translates to more positive interactions within the classroom. Participants in this course will examine various choice-based learning approaches in the art classroom with a critical eye toward their impact on assessment, advocacy, and management strategies. The course culminates with participants revising classroom approaches and curriculum based on their findings.
