Abstract Art Education And ABSTRACT ART EDUCATION AND STUDENTS WITH EMOTIONAL DISABILITIES: HIGH SCHOOL CASE STUDIES OF POSTMODERN LEARNING, SOCIAL INTERACTION DEVELOPMENT, AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT Kelly Gross, Ph.D. School of Art and Design Northern Illinois University, 2017 Kerry Freedman, Director The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of inclusive postmodern visual arts education for students with ED. The research examines arts learning, social skill interaction development, and general academic achievement. Previous research in the field of special education has focused almost exclusively on behavioral interventions from behaviorist or cognitive approaches for students with ED. Instead, this research focuses on the ability of students to build art skills and change behaviors through constructivist pedagogical approaches. These mixed-methods case studies were implemented over a period of two semesters with four students, four teachers, and two high schools. From the two data sites, seven sets of data were collected: observations, artwork, interviews with students and teachers, GPA, class rank, and graduation status. A mixed-methods case study allowed for investigation into both the individual experience and the larger group experience while addressing the lack of quantitative research on this population in relation to art education. The findings from this study indicate that over time the students in visual arts developed fluency and skills in artmaking, which led to confidence in their work and better peer relationships. The artwork students produced illustrates how they observed, interpreted, and represented themselves through visual media. Data from this research suggest that exposure to art may help students envision other ways of being through learning about their peers and exposure to visual media. The findings from the transcript analysis correlate with the data regarding visual arts participation improving students’ ways of seeing the world and their habits of mind, in that both sets of data indicate that sustained engagement in the arts provides the largest differences in ways of thinking and behaviors. NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY DE KALB, ILLINOIS DECEMBER 2017 ART EDUCATION AND STUDENTS WITH EMOTIONAL DISABILITIES: HIGH SCHOOL CASE STUDIES OF POSTMODERN LEARNING, SOCIAL INTERACTION DEVELOPMENT, AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT BY KELLY GROSS © 2017 Kelly Gross A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SCHOOL OF ART AND DESIGN Dissertation Director: Dr. Kerry Freedman ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many people have played an invaluable role in supporting me throughout the process of attending graduate school and completing this dissertation research. My family and friends have been the greatest support throughout this entire process. My aunt, Dr. Patricia Gill Webber, inspired me to pursue a doctorate. My mother, Gwen Caranchini, led by example, always fighting for what she believed in. My children for the many holidays, vacations, and bedtime stories that I missed, yet whose excitement for me to finish this process never diminished. Many friends have helped make this dream come true: Dr. Kryssi Staikidis, David Dornblaser, Sussana Perret, the Fisher family, and countless others. Finally, I would like to thank my husband, Steve Gross, whose unwavering support allowed my pursuit of a doctorate; without him, none of this would have been possible. I would also like to thank the committee for working with me through this long process. Dr. Boughton, your advice in regards to analyzing artwork and your guidance through an initial pilot study were insightful and supportive. Dr. Johnson, you have been a great source of information regarding research methods for students with emotional disabilities and developing contacts with local teachers. Dr. Walker has been an excellent source of advice regarding the statistical analysis. Dr. Freedman, I want to thank you for your guidance and leadership through the planning, research, and writing process. You have believed in me and challenged me, and for that I am extremely grateful. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF TABLES ………………………………………………………………………….. x LIST OF FIGURES ……………………………………………………………………......... xii LIST OF APPENDICES ……………………………………………………………………. xiv Chapter 1.

Using the respective examples of Erwin Panofsky and Walter Benjamin’s interpretations of Albrecht Dürer’s 1514 engraving Melencolia I, I argue that although both approaches serve to illuminate Broodthaers’ film, the ambiguity and richness of signification found in the work are best captured by Benjamin’s allegorical method. More than cinema, the new techniques of the image (laser?) offer the way to a solution that is, I fear, momentous, if certainly interesting.

  • A Tale of Two Communes
    1 A Tale of Two Communes Noel: Ever since I was kid, I’ve been fascinated by communes and collectives. I grew up during ​ the 1980s in a white picket neighborhood in the old north end of Colorado Springs. It was mostly full of professionals and their nuclear families. But there was a secret side of the neighborhood -- a community of lesbians, including my mom, many of whom had kids around my age. And some of them lived together in a commune. It was in a big old victorian house next to a butcher shop called “Babe’s Meat Market.” And it was started by a woman named Bonnie Poucel. Bonnie Poucel: The vision was that we would live, collectively and that we would help each ​ other with our kids, and we would take turns with the work, you know, and that we would contribute financially according to our abilities, you know, and according to what we were making and that- that was the vision. Noel: My mom and I didn’t live there, and she didn’t live with her partner. She was afraid that I ​ could get taken away from her if a nosy neighbor decided to call child welfare... But Bonnie and her kids Jean-Jacques and Genevieve lived there. And my friends Tom and Brooke lived there part-time with their mom. Part of me was glad we didn’t live there. It was like a cross between a sorority house and a hippie grocery store. It was kind of embarrassing in that buttoned down neighborhood.

As this thesis examines the movements of subjective documentary between self-reflexivity and reflexivity, it argues against an understanding of reflexivity as something that is emotionally distanced from its object and thus relies on a strict separation from both the subject and what it documents, such as for instance the stable irony in many found footage or mock-documentaries.
