Drawing to Learn – eBook

eBook • 260 pages

From the author, Dr Margaret Brooks: This book is the theoretical companion to my more practical book, ‘Authentic Art with Children’. It lays out and discusses a theoretical framework and rationale for teaching the visual arts with young children. I carefully unpack a Vygotskian, social constructionist theory with many examples to clarify some difficult concepts. I believe we need to know why we are teaching the way we do and have the tools to critically evaluate what we do.
