SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Many subjects in the school curriculum ask students to make various kinds of practical and arts based productions. These might include: paintings; creative writing; performances; recordings; videos and multimedia digital creations. Within the subject areas many interesting contradictions arise when students are required to be cultural producers in this way, and these contradictions are most acute when teachers and students evaluate media arts work." "This book aims to debate these different conceptions of young people as cultural producers. Each contribution will give examples of practice from a subject discipline including English, Art, Music, Drama, Media Studies, Design and Technology, Gallery Education and Digital Arts. This will enable those involved with primary, secondary, further, higher, gallery and community education to learn from each other and to develop a coherent approach to the range of creative work produced by young people. By focusing on questions of evaluation and containing a range of practical examples the book will set an agenda for creative work by young people in the school curriculum and beyond."--Jacket.
