Program Overview:
Welcome to Art Education at Adelphi University! The goal of the Adelphi program in art education is to develop art educators who can understand artistic development across the lifespan and the relationship of the sensory and kinesthetic domains to art making, awaken and support the exploration of ideas, feelings, experiences and materials, appreciate the role the arts can play in opening cross-cultural understandings, and maintain a lively commitment to their own artistic practice. The Adelphi program of study in art education includes foundational courses in art education philosophies and theories of learning and development in the visual arts. These major courses are supplemented by offerings in child and youth literacies and special needs education. Students also select from an array of studio and exploratory arts courses. Beyond the foundational courses and studio electives, students explore curriculum design and assessment, undertake small-scale art education research in the capstone masters seminar, and finally complete mentored student teaching. Aside from their work as art educators, exemplary students in the program have pursued professional exhibition opportunities on campus and beyond, national conference presentations, and publications in the field.
