North Texas institute for Educators on the Visual Arts Advisory Board Meeting December 1, 1992 Amon Carter Museum, Fort Worth issues and Concerns Discussed Making connections between DBAE and TAAS testing is important for school districts. School districts want hard data to substantiate the effects of teaching art upon learning outcomes in other disciplines. The TAAS connection can provide that data. Principals need a more active, visible role in the Institute. Can we get principals together to hear a peer advocate? How can we best go about this? Allison reported on the progress on the Study Print Collection and an additional benefit of the project - "bonding" with other museum educators. (Our teachers have also commented on this in the Institute). The Board requested a monograph on advocacy. Tuesday, February 2 was tentatively set as the date for the next board meeting. The topic of advocacy and another student demo were suggested for that meeting. How can the Institute expand to reach middle school and beyond? A suggestion was made that the Institute might continue in a different form after the initial five years - perhaps training trainers (both in Texas and out of state) to return to work with their own home districts.
Telecommunications and distance learning need clarification.
