EP 5: Teaching Artist as Researcher

The goal of the action research process is to encourage teaching artists to consider how they might assess the impact of their work in classrooms through RAISE. Teaching Artist as Researcher presents us with methods and thought processes of creating a more holistic breakdown of how students might be engaged, feel understood, valued and build social awareness in and out of the classrooms. Together with Born Shamir, Melli Hoppe and Jessica Mueller we'll dive into what this might look like in their practice, how they hope to see it change, and how their work with students evolves their work as artists.
