Abstract
Reflective Practices in Arts Education brings together a multi-disciplinary group
of authors who explore meanings of reflection and its applications to a range of
arts education contexts. The major theme of the volume is that reflection is central
to arts engagement, and is particularly important for those concerned with facilitating
learners' engagement with the arts. The volume aims to spark conversation about reflection
in an extended community that includes practitioners who work in schools, artists-in-residence,
teacher educators, and researchers in arts education.
