This led to an ‘educational emergency’, generating proposals for what some authors have called Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). This article describes the teaching experiences of nine visual arts teachers from northern, central and southern Chile, who implemented their pedagogical proposals by dispensing with the workshops and materials commonly used in visual arts classes. The study examined the processes of uncertainty experienced by the teachers by collecting and analysing ‘in situ’ accounts and arguments using a qualitative approach. The main results indicate that the teachers showed agency and a great capacity to be flexible in response to changing scenarios. It can also be observed that ERT emphasizes the ambivalent position of visual arts as a subject in schools and demonstrates the difficulty that some students experience accessing and using certain technologies, questioning the belief that they are ‘digital natives’.","PeriodicalId":43940,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education through Art","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135588830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, scant research exists about children’s and youths’ insights into and encounters with generative AI. Building on sociocultural and new materialist perspectives, this exploratory study proposed to address this gap by exploring middle schoolers’ ( N = 10) creative interaction with generative AI, particularly with text-to-image generative models. Qualitative content analyses of emerging learning activities evidenced how generative AI-formed relations were externalized through novel digital artefacts and collaborative discussions. Ideas evolved through peer collaboration organized around creative making with AI. Teachers facilitated relations between people and technology using dialogic teaching, providing room for unpredictability and critical reflection on the impacts of generative AI, especially authorship and copyright. The study concludes with a discussion of the potential uses of generative AI in future art education research and practice.","PeriodicalId":43940,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education through Art","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135587854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings indicate that (1) teacher identities were formed by their past personal experiences, (2) past personal experiences influenced their teaching philosophies, (3) making art helped to synthesize ideas for future teaching and (4) developing reflexivity and clarifying teaching philosophies influenced future teaching.

This article highlights the investigation of a US Gallup Student Poll on South Carolina arts-rich schools. More specifically, the study focuses on how states determine a school’s effectiveness and can be held accountable for the ideals of a whole-child education instead of using the narrow lens of test scores. The authors delve into two poll categories that had significance for these schools. Engagement and hope stood out as convincing measures for the arts. The data presented in this article provide a persuasive argument for how the arts can account for school effectiveness. Although the project is closely related to schools in the United States, it is presumed that results from this study are relevant for colleagues in other countries as well, where similar accountability measures prevail.","PeriodicalId":43940,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education through Art","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135588012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through a youth-framed participatory research design, the project team engaged local youth in researching young people’s marine pollution understandings, attitudes and behaviours. It then supported their ideas as they created, instigated and assessed an intervention campaign, targeted at Schoolies tourists, to reduce the amount of beach litter (). The young people conducted video interviews with their peers, created visual diaries, took photographs, and designed and implemented an intervention plan. Seeking a feasible action and realizing the enormity of the issue of marine pollution, they decided to target the beach as a specific site for intervention, and in particular, the issue of cigarette butt litter. The young people then engaged in a suite of arts-based analyses, including photographs of the intervention in-process, a documentary film, visual diaries () and a collaborative, large-scale canvas painting (; ) as an analytical riposte.","PeriodicalId":43940,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education through Art","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135588014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the last decade (2011–22), Ghanaian ceramic art appears to have had a stagnant traditional practice and has struggled to be seen, heard and valued within local and global contemporary art discourse. Reviews and reforms of art education in college and tertiary curriculum have provided critical interventions to address this situation. Discussing the works of Japheth Asiedu-Kwarteng, Eugene Ofori Agyei, Frederick Ebenezer Okai, Alex Awuku and other artists, this article reveals how young Ghanaian contemporary ceramic artists are navigating a path to creating new artistic identities and pushing the boundaries of conventional Ghanaian ceramics. These developments also point to the meaningful expansion of ceramics in contemporary art education more generally.","PeriodicalId":43940,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education through Art","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135588019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
