Conarro, Ryan
Teaching Artist Journal, v9 n3 p175-182 2011
In this article, the author relates his experience working for the Department of Education as an "arts content coach" and visiting in rural Alaska's schools. He shares how he is guiding the youths in analyzing the visual elements of stage pictures so that they can create their own tableaux of important historical inventions. He asks some vital questions about the arts, education, and cultural context.
