Introduction to the Curriculum

An ecological art curriculum employs art as a means for studying and promoting respect for the relationship and the interaction of all living things. It should be exciting, hands on, interdisciplinary, and should engage students through various methods, such as teamwork, research, integration of technology, and exploration of ecological issues in the students' community.

The goal of an eco art education curriculum should be to inform and enable students to utilize art and technology as a means of exploration, expression, and communication, in order to understand and assume their role within their community and the environment.

Personal Introduction: Yadira Toledo

My name is Yadira Toledo and I currently attend The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA. Together with my classmates,I've come up with these very interesting ideas on Eco Art Education!
Nature and the environment should be one of our many concerns. We need to appreciate and take care of it. Letting our students know about the dangers of climate change and pollution can enlighten their generation. We as educators really should advocate the beauties of art within nature as well as nature art.

Welcome to the World of Ecology Art Education!
