Child-Centered and Discipline-Based Art Education: Metaphors and Meanings (Abridged).
Jeffers, Carol S.
Art Education, v43 n2 p16-21 Mar 1990
Compares and contrasts discipline-based art education with Viktor Lowenfeld's creative self-expression approach, using growth, medical, and molding metaphors. Maintains that these two approaches are similar because the views of the child, the teacher's role, and the relationship between them has not changed. (KM)
