The Art Education concentration embraces the artist-teacher concept, allowing students to develop a strong studio practice and take coursework to prepare to teach art at the K-12 level. Students engage in philosophical and theoretical studies, contemporary pedagogical practices, and arts-based research to prepare for the complexities of the K-12 art studio. Student teaching, field work, and service learning is expected and prepares students to enter a career as an art educator.
Effective Fall 2022
A Portfolio Review is required to be submitted for review upon completion of three ART studio courses for continuing students and upon completion of two ART studio courses for transfer students and students who have changed majors.
The Art Education concentration requires a 2.75 cumulative CSU GPA, and that students pass the PLACE exam. Admission to the Center for Educator Preparation (CEP) is also required. Fingerprint and background check.
A minimum grade of C (2.000) or better is required in all Art and Education coursework.
