| Description |
The following Master of Education in Curriculum and instruction thesis explores the therapeutic properties of visual art as a resource and tool for K-12 teachers with students experiencing trauma. |
| Abstract |
This project is an exploration of how visual art can be a tool in healing for students who have experienced poverty or trauma or both. The existing research on art as an aid has been explored mostly as a means of intervention or therapy, and is beginning to be researched as an everyday tool for both art teachers, and general education teachers. The lesson plans developed as part of this project are intended for K-12 teachers, whether or not they have an art background. The lesson plans are relevant for students who may (or may not) be experiencing trauma. Though the plans have not been created as a means to address the trauma that has come with the unexpected coronavirus pandemic, the pandemic has been a source of trauma for many, and these lessons are certainly one way to help students heal from that trauma. |
