The Handbook of Research and Policy in Art Education marks a milestone in the field of art education. Sponsored by the National Art Education Association and assembled by an internationally known group of art educators, this 36-chapter handbook provides an overview of the remarkable progress that has characterized this field in recent decades. Organized into six sections, it profiles and integrates the following elements of this rapidly emerging field: history, policy, learning, curriculum and instruction, assessment, and competing perspectives. Because the scholarly foundations of art education are relatively new and loosely coupled, this handbook provides researchers, students, and policymakers (both inside and outside the field) an invaluable snapshot of its current boundaries and rapidly growing content. In a nutshell, it provides much needed definition and intellectual respectability to a field that as recently as 1960 was more firmly rooted in the world of arts and crafts than in scholarly research.

Solid,
This review is from: Handbook of Research and Policy in Art Education (Hardcover)
This tome is a solid start to what ought to be a publication series every three to five years. There are always going to be ideas, articles, and perspectives that are left out-- and yet these may be very important resources. This book does leave some key areas unrepresented, but in general it is an important source work for educators, researchers, and libraries to own. The cost is another issue, so get your institution to purchase a copy if you can.
