So how do you get help from teachers of the arts?
One thing is a given – inquiry-based approaches involve following students along paths that you might not be able to predict – and that involves responsive teaching.
I’d recommend that you go and search out your arts teachers. They are usually really passionate about their subject area, just as you are, and may be eager to share their expertise.
For starters you might ask some of these questions to get a conversation going (and glean an invitation to observe):
- What techniques are used to build an effective community of learners?
- What strategies and structures are put in place to manage a classroom that focuses on discussion, sharing and reflection?
- How do teachers handle the fact that the endpoint isn’t always what is planned or expected?
