Arts + Open = Change: what's it all about?
Transformative leaders in education, teachers and learners, are taking on new roles with peers and students using new social tools and ways of sharing to address real issues, by telling stories, blogging, discussing, using the arts and co-creating together. How can these empowering roles be integrated equitably into our schools and to what impact?
Supported by the Ford Foundation, ISKME is working to create collaborative pathways for leaders in arts integration and education using Open Educational Resources (OER) and knowledge sharing practices. “Open education” is a movement concerned with addressing access and participation in learning through using freely adaptable, culturally relevant, shared curriculum and collaborative teaching.
- Where is this movement going? What is the potential impact
for learners?
- What is needed to support collaboration among stakeholders and
where are we headed?
The goal of the event is to bring stakeholders together in a setting for envisioning the potential for teachers, teaching artists, and others around these new processes for change in education.

About the OER in Arts Education and Social Justice Project
Through our professional development programs, teaching artist fellowships, partnerships with K-12 schools and higher education teacher centers, ISKME is building a pilot infrastructure around OER based on knowledge sharing for the classroom. Teaching artists and others can support each other in forging new pathways for integrating the arts into K-12 classrooms by sharing teaching strategies, creative expression, and curricular resources. The sharing of Open Educational Resources (OER) and related practices involving digital and social learning is the cornerstone of ISKME’s facilitation of teacher professional development and peer-based learning. Starting in mid-2009, ISKME launched a series of summer courses and fall seminars in teacher professional development focused on OER and teacher-led approaches. In addition to focusing on the use of Open Educational Resources (OER), our trainings are supporting teachers in modeling investigative project-based learning and experiential arts and design approaches for the classroom that can be adapted to work across disciplines. Participants learn about the concepts of “open” and resources that intended to be free and non-proprietary, and by extension, adaptable and shareable.
