Does Experience in the Arts Boost Academic Achievement?
Eisner, Elliot W.
Art Education, v51 n1 p7-15 Jan 1998
Examines recent research considering the effects of art experience on academic achievement. Discovers the most cogent research concerns the intentional use of the arts to increase reading and writing. Proposes three new ways of considering the efficacy of art education: arts-based outcomes, arts-related outcomes, and ancillary outcomes of art education. (MJP)
