Teaching Adults with Varying Abilities: Pre-service Art Teachers’ Reflections

Abstract

This study focuses on how one art education program has started to offer pre-service art teachers experiences working with adults with varying abilities. Weaving together the course instructor’s thoughts with the pre-service teachers’ reflections and adult artwork, this poster introduces the junior-level art education course that required pre-service art teachers to lead an art gallery tour and hands-on printmaking workshop to adults with varying abilities. Because it was the first time this experience was offered, this research aims to highlight the pre-service teachers’ reflections that hold implications for future use in our own program as well as other teacher education programs.
