Art, Craft and Design offers many opportunities for teachers to develop higher level thinking skills in their pupils, through engaging them in learning conversations, the use of effective questioning, shared learning experiences and exploring contemporary as well as historical concepts in Art.
Recent research and OfSTED reports show that best practice involves all of the above and is not just about “making”. This course will help you to make research tasks a journey of discovery rather than an onerous written task, encourage you and show you how to harness new technologies to motivate pupils in enquiry-based learning. It will help you to develop pupils into artists, who think, who create, who do and who make.
