Colleen Y on 22 Nov 10Winner, Ellen, and Lois Hetland. "Art for our Sake School Arts Classes Matter More than Ever-But Not for the Reasons You Think." Arts Education Policy Review. 109.5 (May 2008): 29-32. Academic Search Complete, EBSCO. Web. 21 Nov. 2010. Winner and Hetland outline why the arts are essential to learning. As the title denotes, the reasons are not what you might expect. They carefully observe a handful of Boston art schools to find exactly why art is so important. Going in depth to support each claim, they use specific scenarios from their fieldwork.
