  • Visual Arts Integrated Curriculum in a United States Elementary School: A
    Visual Arts Integrated Curriculum in a United States Elementary School: A Desired Pedagogical Strategy for Implementing the Integrated Curriculum in the Jamaican Primary Schools Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Verona Barnes M.A.T Graduate Program in Art Education The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Vesta A Daniel, Advisor Patricia L Stuhr Robert Hite Copyright by Verona Barnes 2010 Abstract The purpose of this study is to identify how Visual Arts can play a pivotal role in the implementation of an integrated curriculum in elementary education. In order to increase my knowledge base I reviewed a body of theoretical and philosophical writings that revealed how the arts, especially Visual Arts, have been valued in the field of education. Next I use case study methodology to investigate how an exemplary Visual Arts educator/teacher has been putting theories to practice by providing state-of-the-art teaching and learning in, with, through and about Visual Arts, as well as how she has been using Visual Arts as anchor for and an engine to drive an integrated curriculum in an elementary school setting. I explain how the data was collected using a triangulation research design process. These included on site observations, reflective journaling, interviews, and artifacts and document analysis. I reported and analyzed the data to ascertain the knowledge, skills dispositions and commitments the Visual Arts teacher displayed that reflected theoretical and philosophical knowledge of best practices related to art education, general education and teacher education.
