    The basis of this course is to introduce Art Education on
    a level that anybody is able to understand, regardless of personal
    knowledge or any previous experience.
    This is necessary because many teachers are uncomfortable
    teaching art, owing to careless and mostly irresponsible remarks
    from their own teachers, about their own dissability in art.
    Based on the idea that to teach art in elementary and inter-
    mediate levels one does not have to be an artist but rather an
    imaginative and careful leader of activities.
    Therefore, this course will concentrate on simple technical
    know-how of materials and equipment, by introducing Drawing,
    Painting, Printing, Modeling, Pottery and Puppetry on a ready-
    to-take-home, classroom level to foster confidence in the teacher.
    To encourage further development, the philosophy and psychology
    of art education will be introduced by the application of art to
    other subjects for a comprehensive aesthetic education.
    All students will receive a book list for reading with notes,
    articles and handouts as the course progresses.

    maintaining a tendency for research to build on this established

    base, raiding personal aesthetic understanding and elevating teacher
    competence in "Art Education".
