What is it about?

This practitioner inquiry set out to help pre-service art teachers recognize and go beyond the constraints placed on them by pervasive curriculum patterns in conventional Korean teacher preparation. A series of assignments were designed to determine the nature of those constraints and pre-service teachers' strengths and to facilitate their reflective thinking during an art education course.

Why is it important?

Whereas the student responses to a preliminary questionnaire reflected limited views of art and art teaching, analysis of a sample of assignments at the end of the course indicated significant changes of beliefs and attitudes and potential for further growth; and highlighted potential curriculum content for inclusion in Korean art education.
