Episode 268 - TAB in Practice: Choice, Creativity, and the Artist's Mindset
Laura and Matt GrundlerJen Ferrari and Jill Hogan
What does it mean to teach students to think and work like artists? In this episode of #K12ArtChat, the Creativity Department welcomes Jen Ferrari and Jill Hogan, co-authors of What Artists Do: TAB Pedagogy and Practice for K–12 Choice-Based Art Classes. Drawing on their research and experience, Jen and Jill explore the principles behind Teaching for Artistic Behavior (TAB) and the many ways educators can bring choice-based learning into their classrooms. They share practical strategies, assessment frameworks, and ideas from fellow art educators, offering teachers new ways to foster artistic thinking, student independence, and creative ownership in the art room.
