My research and teaching interests focus on
curriculum development and the aesthetic development of children and
adults with a special emphasis on diverse populations. In general
education I am interested in authentic instruction and assessment
and the development of reflective practitioners.
Prior to coming to higher education I taught
elementary and middle school art in urban schools for 12 years and
served full-time as the art curriculum specialist for the Portland
Oregon public schools for 10 years. During this time I wrote grants
to the Getty Institute for Arts Education to design and implement a
discipline-based art education program in the Portland schools.
After that grant was completed I established the Northwest Institute
for Discipline-Based Art Education at Lewis and Clark College in
Portland in order to provide staff development and support to many
school districts in Oregon. I also headed the visual arts committee
to develop state standards.
Following the completion of the doctorate, I taught
for five years at Arizona State University and had an opportunity to
develop online curriculum for the Getty’s ArtsEdNet Web site as well
as other Web sites and print sources.
With deep experience in public school teaching and
administrative levels, as well as professional and state level
committees, I bring to higher education significant knowledge of the
real world of public schools.
