The Art Education, Culture and Practice MA examines the relationship between art practice, culture and pedagogy and enables students to develop innovative approaches to educational research across sites for education, such as art colleges, schools, galleries and alternative spaces for art education. Previously known as the Art and Design in Education MA, the course's alumni go on to be key influencers in the expanded field of art education. This innovative course advocates the critical value of art and culture to address contemporary issues in and through the expanded field of art education. We position practice-based research as an interdisciplinary research approach enabling you to explore and question the material, social and political production of knowledge, teaching and learning. The course creates a critically engaged community of practitioners through a combination of studio practice, and a structured programme of lectures, seminars, site visits and live projects aimed at cultivating new possibilities for art education. As a student on this course, you will learn about art education and its social and cultural impact through practice and theory across a range of professional contexts. Key issues addressed include access and inclusion, globalisation and decolonisation, material and embodied learning, discourses of creativity, socially engaged practice, alternative educational models and digital, networked culture. This course is for those interested in the intersection of art and education with experience in both education and art practice. We are therefore looking for students with strong practical and theoretical interests in shaping art education for the 21st century. We invite applications from early years, primary and secondary school teachers, university and college lecturers, curators and freelance arts educators working in formal and informal educational contexts (local communities, galleries, hospitals, museums, prisons, etc.). We also invite applications from practising artists working or planning to work in galleries, schools, universities and other educational sites. This programme is also available on a modular (flexible) basis, with a duration of 5 calendar years.
