The Role of the Arts and Sciences in Planning Teacher Education Programs.
Duce, Leonard A.
It is imperative for the arts and sciences to have an integral role in the planning, implementing, and evaluating of teacher education programs on both the local and state level because: a) the arts and sciences are the educational source and cultural depository of the substance of most learning and teaching in our schools; b) they are themselves an educational enterprise which builds on and serves as a source for the public school enterprise; and c) their faculty members share with members of the education faculty the quality of being professionals in the educational enterprise. The arts and sciences have a responsibility to the total educational enterprise which transcends any one professional interest. They are primarily concerned with human values and development, and secondarily with professional development. The role of the arts and sciences in teacher education should be neither supplementary nor subordinate to the role of professional education but complementary to it. (HMD)
