Author	Brostek, Melissa
Title	Implementing a Multicultural Art Education
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2005
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	The demographics of our society are constantly changing and continue to impact the curriculum of our schools. Educators are faced with the dilemma of how to address the diverse learning needs of the students in their classroom and Multicultural Education has emerged as the educational savior to address diversity issues. A multicultural education calls for total reform of the schools curriculum that is conceptual and interdisciplinary. A multicultural curriculum can foster problem solving skills and critical thinking skills in students that will, in turn, promote social action against racism and discrimination. Teachers must realize that more meaningful connections are made to a student's life from culturally relevant teaching. This study addresses the issues surrounding the implementation of multicultural education in our schools. An investigation of the 2005 summer program, Multicultural Arts and Technology (MAT), has helped in providing future suggestions for multicultural instruction through the arts. Questions addressed how a four-week summer art program can effectively teach students to value cultural identity and diversity. Research methods were based on finding the most effective ways to measure learning that occurs from a multicultural education. Implementation results of the summer program and documentation of recorded changes to the 2005 summer program are presented. This action research was based on the results made from the changes to the journal assignments, a diversity workshop, and pre and post tests of the MAT summer art program. Collected data included finding emerging patterns from students' journal responses, diversity workshop evaluations, and tallying of the answers to the pre and post test.
