Exploring Art for Perspective Transformation: International Issues in Adult Education, cartea 32
Autor Alexis Kokkosen Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 mai 2021
The learning potential of aesthetic experience is, however, barely exploited within educational systems. In addition, although major scholars have contributed to a deeper understanding of the liberating dimension of processing important artworks, there has been surprisingly little discussion in the relevant literature focusing on educational practice.
Exploring Art for Perspective Transformation provides a comprehensive analysis and synthesis of theoretical views pertaining to the emancipatory process of exploring art. Moreover, it presents the educational method Transformative Learning through Aesthetic Experience (TLAE), with reference to particular examples of implementation. TLAE is addressed to adult educators and school teachers regardless of the subject they teach and their theoretical background on aesthetics. It involves engaging learners in exploring works from fine arts, literature, theatre, cinema and music with a view to promoting critical reflection on one’s potentially problematic perspectives.

Recenzii
“It is really a well written and presented book. I like it as it does exactly what it sets out to do in every respect. I think every idea it expresses is clear and accurate. The originality of the book lies in the methodology section that rests on the theory section.” – Ted Fleming, Adjunct Associate Professor, Teachers College, Columbia University, New York
“This excellent book covers the literature in a hugely important field thoroughly & is written in a highly accessible fashion. I think this will be essential reading for the next generation.” – Viv Golding, Honorary Associate Professor, School of Museum Studies, University of Leicester
"This is a beautifully written book that was difficult to put down. It's readability and accessibility make it a timely and thoughtful contribution during these uncertain times when all of us – researchers, scholar-practitioners, and educator activists – are seeking ways to generate the conditions that support learning processes that sustain transformation." – Aliki Nicolaides, Associate Professor of Adult Learning, University of Georgia, and Director of the International Transformative Learning Association
“In illuminating the essence and significance of transformative learning theory, Kokkos highlights the potential contribution of arts and esthetic experience to perspective transformation and critical thinking. Importantly, this book amply demonstrates that specialized knowledge is not a prerequisite for using art as a springboard to development of critical awareness, nor is arts-based education limited to older students and esthetic coursework, but rather, 'the use of art as an impetus for reflection can be relevant to all possible topics and, as a result, to all subject matters.'” – Kathleen Taylor, Admissions Committee Chair, Doctorate in Educational Leadership, Kalmanovitz School of Education, Saint Mary’s College of California, Facilitating Learning with the Adult Brain in Mind
