TEACHING AND LEARNING IN THE ARTS
Making Meaning: Cultivating Student
Reflection in the Arts Classroom Standards in Action:
Arts Lesson Feedback Sessions
Reflective practices are key to drawing out students’ understanding. Through reflection,
students demonstrate knowledge of arts content and concepts, and gain a deeper meaning
that goes far beyond facts and technical information. Activating student reflection allows
teachers and teaching artists to engage learners at the group and individual levels. Looking for guidance on your Standards-aligned lesson plans? Connect with other
teachers in your arts discipline and grade band who are eager to give and get feedback.
Arts Instruction Specialists will host and facilitate these sessions, at which each participant
will have a chance to share a lesson, ask questions about areas of concern or challenge,
and receive constructive feedback.
