No file chosen
In a future version of the workbook, we would like to include vetted video links to support arts integration implementation (i.e. footage of teachers demonstrating lessons, exercises, or creative teaching strategies.)  Please upload any videos you would like the writing team to consider.
No file chosen
If you shared videos, please identify appropriate placement by chapter or page if you have a specific idea.
For future workbook editions we are going to integrate content relating to Culturally Responsive Arts Education and arts integration. A culturally responsive pedagogy requires arts and non-arts teachers to consider their students' cultural backgrounds, languages, learning styles and values encountered at home and in their communities in order to empower students to become learners who appreciate their (and others') cultural heritages and lived experiences and utilize their learning styles to develop critical thinking and act on unjust issues.

We ask that you attach any relevant CRAE arts integration resources you think we should consider for inclusion in the workbook.
