THE ARTFUL EDUCATOR: IMAGINATIVE, INNOVATIVE AND CREATIVE APPROACHES TO TEACHING

Book ID/图书代码： 03480517C00001

English Summary/英文概要： Is teaching an art, rather than a science? Instead of measuring education and reducing everything to data, what if we looked at it through the lens of the arts? Sue Cowley demonstrates how teachers can become artists, sculptors, actors, dancers, musicians, playwrights, poets, designers and directors, no matter which subject or age group they happen to be teaching. The artful educator paints the air with ideas and weaves magic with words. They aren t afraid of a little risk, or of planning and delivering lessons a little differently. Learn how to be more creative, experimental, playful and imaginative in the methods you use to manage your classroom, and in the myriad ways in which you help your students to learn.

Discover what an artful attitude to education looks like, with plenty of practical, real-life ideas for artful teaching and learning. Sue has collected inspiring examples of how colleagues in a range of settings, from early years to secondary and further education, are already using artful approaches in their classrooms. Find out how to engage with your artful side, reinvigorate your approach to teaching and inspire yourself and your children with the pure joy of learning. Getting artful can involve borrowing techniques from the arts to use in teaching, getting learners hands-on with creating artworks themselves and also engaging learners with great existing works of art, cultivating the cultural capital that comes from this in the process.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 教育相对于一种科学更是一种艺术？如果我们从艺术的角度来看待教育，而不是把一切都简化为数据来量化它，那会怎么样？Sue Cowley向读者演示了不管是教哪个科目或哪个年龄的学生，老师们如何化身为一名艺术家、雕塑家、演员、舞蹈家、音乐家、剧作家、诗人、设计师和一名导演。一位艺术型的教育家可以用思想描绘空气，用文字编织魔术。他们不惧怕可能会面临的小风险，也不畏惧创新型课程稍有不同的课前准备和教授方式。你可以学到如何将管理课堂的方法变得更具创造性、实验性、趣味性和充满想象力，同时也可以学到各种帮助学生学习的方法。

通过结合艺术化教学中的大量实践和现实生活中萌发的各种想法来探索这种艺术性的教育态度。Sue收集了她身边一些鼓舞人心的事迹，从早期教育到中学教育和继续教育，她的同事们在不同课堂上已经开始了使用那些艺术性方法。你要学会如何融入你自身带有艺术细胞的一面，改善你的教学方法，用对学习纯粹的热爱激励你自己和孩子们。我们可以借鉴艺术的技巧并运用于教学之中，比如让学生亲自动手创作艺术作品，或是让学生欣赏大量的艺术作品并在这个过程中培养学生的文化资本。

这本书是为冒险家和不墨守成的人撰写的，书中囊括了一系列激励你与学生一起创新的各种建议。无论是对于助教、业余老师或是经验丰富的老师来说，《艺术教育家》是一个绝佳的资源库，任何人都可以找到创造性的教学方法。(YYW)

Awards/获奖情况：我全心全意地向老师推荐这本书。当时许多业内人士都说，因为要和学生一起应付考试的压力，老师对课堂教学的热情逐日消减。《艺术教育家》里阐述了各种实用的建议，也区分了那些看似华丽有趣却毫无意义的活动和那些真正使学生有兴趣学习某一课题或技能之间的重要区别。我相信，《艺术教育家》会帮助老师们鼓励学生不要为了学习而学习，而是真正爱上它。-- Isabella Wallace，教育顾问、作家和主持人

这本书是对应试教育这一概念的及时回应。Sue Cowley这本书的结合了相对的复杂性以及那些随时而来的问题。Sue Cowley自豪地将自己的信念通过比喻的手法表达了出来，她将教育比喻成一系列创造性艺术。为了使课堂再次充满灵魂，她对此也进行了充分有效的指导。有些人会把这本书解读为作者想要使这个职业更加注重理论研究。我不是。对我来说，Cowley在课堂上呼吁教师的创造性，这与注重实践的理念一致：根据不同的学术报告和艺术直觉教学。-- Duncan Partridge，英语协会教育主管

《艺术教育家》会将快乐传递给老师和学生。你即使不是一个有艺术感的或是有创新性的人也能很快沉浸到Sue热情友好的笔触之中。在阅读了几页之后，你就会忍不住想去尝试书中Sue提到的简单又创新的小方法，以及尝试那些被这本书激发的小灵感。--Pooky Knightsmith博士，儿童、青少年和学校项目主管，Charlie Waller纪念信托，儿童和青少年精神健康联盟副主席

I whole-heartedly recommend this book to teachers. It comes at a time when many in the profession have reported that the thrill and buzz of teaching is being sucked from classrooms by the obligation to just drill pupils for tests. Full of useful, practical ideas, The Artful Educator understands that there is an important distinction between pointlessly sugar-coating work with a superficial fun activity and actually inspiring intrigue and engagement in a topic or skill. I feel sure that The Artful Educator will help teachers to move pupils beyond simply tolerating their learning and help them to actually love it instead. --Isabella Wallace, education consultant, author and presenter

A timely response to the notion of teaching as content delivery for examination performance. Sue Cowley s book delights in its embracing of the complex, with all the engaging messiness that this entails. Proudly modelling her belief in the power of the metaphor, Cowley equates teaching with a range of creative arts, providing practical pointers for putting the soul back into classroom practice. Some will interpret the book as a riposte to the push to make the profession more research-evidenced. I don t. For me, Cowley s call for teacher creativity in the classroom sits perfectly comfortably alongside the idea of education being research-informed: practitioners guided by academic journals and their artistic instincts. --Duncan Partridge, Director of Education, English-Speaking Union

The Artful Educator will spark joy in both teachers and learners. You don t have to be arty or creative to find yourself rapidly consumed by Sue s passion and friendly approach. Within a few pages you ll be champing at the bit to try out Sue s simple but innovative ideas and all those ideas of your own that the book will no doubt effortlessly inspire. --Dr Pooky Knightsmith, Director of the Children, Young People and Schools Programme, Charlie Waller Memorial Trust, Vice Chair, Children and Young People s Mental Health Coalition
