Troubled by how an increase in standardized testing in public schools and higher instruction has pushed arts education to the periphery of curricula, Croft and Clapp hope the group will offer suggestions for ways that creativity should be taught or encouraged in elementary and secondary schools, as well as in universities.“The arts are not in danger… but the arts don’t have the educational importance that the strength in society would suggest they might...
