The field emphasizes that development is shaped by the interaction of biological characteristics, relationships, culture, family, community, and broader social environments.
- Arts Integration in Elementary Curriculum 2e (Zhou and Brown)
- Many teachers, schools, and arts programs benefit from knowing the different ways the arts can be present in schools. Without making a distinction, opportunities can be missed, programs can lack clarity, or the arts can seem like something too unwieldy to incorporate. Making a distinction among the approaches can help narrow or focus objectives as well as help educators select the most appropriate approach based on their objectives.
