Overview

The Art Education Program from University of Maryland embraces the artist-teacher concept which allows students to develop a strong studio practice while preparing to teach art at the P-12 level in today’s diverse schools. It provides a solid foundation in the liberal arts as well as knowledge and specialized skills in studio arts, art history, educational best practices / teaching strategies, curriculum planning / writing and classroom management. Thus, it creates a balance between the studio arts, art history, educational theory and best practice needs of successful future teachers.

Features

Under the supervision of faculty members, students receive pre-kindergarten through 12th grade (P-12) applied learning experiences in each art education course and also participate in an ‘After School Arts Program’ at a local school during the junior year. In their senior year students become immersed in a Year Long Internship.

During the Fall Semester they have the opportunity to spend a designated time each week in assigned field placement schools - elementary and secondary - to get to know the school, their mentor, students, day-to-day teaching as well as curriculum and instructional duties. During the Spring Semester they return to the same schools / mentors to ‘student- teach’ full time in each placement.
