Inaugural VADEA Conference 2009
3rd & 4th July 2009
Encounters with the real:
contemporary art and art education

This conference focuses on building the professional identity and recognition of Visual Arts and Design educators K-12. Through a program of keynote speakers, the conference objective is to enhance teachers’ professional knowledge in relation to how the practices of artists, gallery directors, critics, and curators can be interpreted relative to the choices teachers make as part of their teaching practice and in the learning opportunities offered to students. Special interest group meetings will provide forums within which newer and more experienced art and design educators from urban, rural and remote areas across NSW can actively contribute to the field of art education by exchanging ideas and debating issues. A range of workshops aims to assist teachers in their translation of artworld concepts and theoretical frameworks into practical ‘takes’ on the development of case studies and other approaches to programming. In all, the conference aims to build the profile of the value of student learning in the Visual Arts and Design and establish a platform for future professional development and advocacy.
