What Happens When We Ask, "What is Art?"
Jeffers, Carol S.
Art Education, v52 n1 p40-44 Jan 1999
Explores the similarities and differences in findings related to three studies that focused on the content and context of students' and teachers' definitions of art in order to study the socialization process. Reveals that the researchers themselves perpetuate this process by solidifying the students' and teachers' learned expectations of what art is. (CMK)
