So why write an article for ARTicle?

  • Having an article published in our online journal about a project or activity can raise the profile of the visual arts in your school and community.
  • It is a special way of celebrating your students’ achievements.
  • You can help other educators seeking alternative approaches and new ideas.
  • Recording and reflecting upon your work is good practice as an educator.
  • Writing an article is a means of self-evaluation and formative self assessment.
  • It can be part of your professional learning.

 

Why not make a contribution? Many educators have said that it seemed daunting at the outset but was quite straightforward once they began.

 

 

What do teachers write about? 

  • Your article could concentrate on any aspect of practice that involves art either discretely or integrated with other subjects in a cross-curricular approach.
  • You might describe a particular artistic technique or process that was introduced which produced exciting outcomes. 
  • It might be that your school has introduced a different curriculum model that you find successful for the visual arts. 
  • You might describe how your own practice informs your teaching. 
  • Alternatively you might describe some proactive approaches in your role as an art subject leader. 
  • You might reflect on a school excursion to a gallery and describe how you connected the information gathered from the exhibition to lessons in the classroom.
