EDU260: Learning through the Arts

Focuses on how the arts shape and express experience and their potential for learning. Consider the arts as ways of knowing and making meaning. Explore how the arts, creativity and culture help us know what it means to be human, focusing on your own play and story, creativity, imagination, transformation, improvisation and aesthetic understanding. Develop arts literacy and your capacity to engage with, reflect on and make informed judgements about the arts.
