Using Art Critically Sampler: Using Art Critically Sampler

By Jerome C. Harste, Vivian Vasquez and Peggy Albers

This Ebook is a sampler text for the Using Art Critically Series, a series of books on art strategies framed from a critical literacy perspective that can be used in K-12 and higher education/teacher education settings. Included in this sampler are the table of contents for each of the volumes along with two sample strategies that we hope teachers can readily use in their settings. The strategies across the four volumes are written in the same style drawing on a range of art forms and strategies. We hope that you will consider using these volumes in your own work and teaching.

Dedication

Our sincere thanks to all the teachers we have worked with through the years who suggested the idea of creating the Using Art Critically series, and who have generously agreed to share their wonderful art pieces. This book is for you. It would not have happened without you.

"As a literacy educator, I am concerned about literacy instruction. Rather than create critically literate individuals who can and do talk back to print, we have created a generation of consumers."
