Achieving Academic Success through <strong>the</strong><br />
Creative Process<br />
This institute will focus on <strong>the</strong> concept of<br />
arts integration, which is an approach to<br />
teaching that uses <strong>the</strong> fine and performing arts<br />
as primary pathways to learning. The goal<br />
of arts integration is to increase knowledge<br />
of traditional subject areas while fostering a<br />
greater understanding and appreciation of <strong>the</strong><br />
fine and performing arts.<br />
Participants will learn how to develop daily<br />
lessons in math, science, reading and writing<br />
that use <strong>the</strong> arts to engage students fully.<br />
