31. Focus: Artistic Literacy and Proficiency in the Arts

32. What is Literacy?

33. 21 st Century Literacy “Adolescents entering the adult world in the 21st century will read and write more than at any other time in human history. They will need advanced levels of literacy to perform their jobs, run their households, act as citizens, and conduct their personal lives. They will need literacy to cope with the flood of information they will find everywhere they turn. They will need literacy to feed their imaginations so they can create the world of the future.” (IRA: Adolescent Literacy: A Position Statement)

34. P21 Framework for 21 st Century Skills P21 website: http://www.p21.org/http://www.p21.org/ Image Citation 11

35. Artistic Literacy What is artistic literacy?

36. Artistic literacy is the knowledge and understanding required to participate authentically in the arts. –Fluency in the language(s) of the arts is the ability to create, perform/produce/present, respond, and connect through symbolic and metaphoric forms that are unique to the arts. –It is embodied in specific philosophical foundations and lifelong goals that enable an artistically literate person to transfer arts knowledge, skills, and capacities to other subjects, settings, and contexts. (January 2013 – National Coalition for Core Arts Standards Framework)

40. Sequencing

41. High School Proficiency Levels BeginningIntermediateProficient*Advanced* Standards are for students with no or limited K-8 progression in the arts education discipline (dance, music, theatre arts, or visual arts). Standards are for students who have had a complete K-8 progression or who have achieved beginning level standards in the discipline at the high school level. Standards are for students who have achieved intermediate level standards in the discipline at the high school level. Standards are for students who have achieved proficient level standards in the discipline at the high school level.

42. High School Sequencing

43. Beginning Standards are for students with no or limited K-8 progression in the arts education discipline (dance, music, theatre arts, or visual arts). Limited or No Experience If the student has no or limited K-8 progression in the arts discipline (dance, music, theatre arts, or visual arts) Limited or No Experience in the Arts ASSESSMENTASSESSMENT

44. Intermediate Standards are for students who have had a complete K-8 progression or who have achieved beginning level standards in the discipline at the high school level.

45. High School Options Electives Requirements (Future-Ready Core) – 6 Electives requirements (NC Scholars) Interest or specializations 4-unit Concentrations

46. Pit Stop What practices are currently being used to assess proficiency and place students appropriately in your district or charter school? How could these practices be improved?

47. Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects

48. Shared Expectation “The Standards insist that instruction in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language be a shared responsibility within the school.....” From the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects, pg. 4

49. CCSS Standards Supplement Content Standards The intent of the standards is to supplement, not replace discipline- specific standards. (CCSS Introduction, Page 3)

50. Definition of Technical Subjects “A course devoted to a practical study, such as engineering, technology, design, business, or other work-force-related subject; a technical aspect of a wider field of study, such as art or music." From Appendix A of the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects, (pg. 43)

51. CCSS Integrated Model “Although the Standards are divided into Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language strands for conceptual clarity, the processes of communication are closely connected, as reflected throughout this document.” Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science and Technical Subjects, Introduction, pg. 4

52. Research and Media Skills Students need the ability to: gather, comprehend, evaluate, synthesize, and report on information and ideas conduct original research in order to answer questions or solve problems analyze and create print and non- print texts in media forms old and new “The need to conduct research and to produce and consume media is embedded into every aspect of today’s curriculum.” (Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science and Technical Subjects, Introduction, pg. 4)

53. 1.Building knowledge through content- rich nonfiction and informational text 2.Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in evidence from text 3.Regular practice with complex text and its shared vocabulary ELA/Literacy: 3 shifts

54. ART IS TEXT!!!!!!!!

55. Creative Practices

Summary: CCSS and the Arts Shared responsibility CCSS supplement, but do not replace discipline standards Creative practices referenced throughout the CCSS for ELA and Math Art is text Resources: – Coleman article and blog – College Board Research – Online Learning Module – Wiki – RESA 2013 – Other Resources

57. Pit Stop What are the implications for Artistic Literacy, Proficiency, and alignment practices with the CCSS with Arts Education in your district or charter school?
