This book suggests teaching practices based on the connection between aesthetics and arts education and shows that this kind of integration promotes enriched learning experiences. The book explores how the core ideas of four main aesthetic approaches -the representationalist, the expressionist, the formalist, and the postmodernist- translate into respective ways of designing and implementing experiential aesthetics-based activities. Containing relevant examples of interventions used in classes, it analyses the ways in which the combination of different aesthetic approaches can support varied, multi-faceted, multimodal and balanced teaching situations in school. This innovative book will appeal to academics, researchers, professionals and students in the fields of arts education, early childhood and primary education and curriculum studies"-- aEnglish. 0aArtxStudy and teaching (Early childhood)xActivity programs. 0aAestheticsxStudy and teaching1 aMouriki, Alexandraeauthor.
