Description:
This degree program is designed for experienced teachers desiring to expand and
deepen their knowledge of art and sharpen their educational abilities as a basis
for their professional work and personal development. Our goal is to create a
local, national and international community of colleagues engaged in active,
shared learning for application in their teaching. This curriculum presumes that
students in the program either already have completed initial certification as
teachers or do not intend this as a goal. Distinct from the Corcoran MAT, this
program focuses on youth education in schools, while making use of our resources
for museum and community linkages. Ample latitude for individual goals is
emphasized. Part-time and summer study are common.

Description:
This program is socially engaged, with a progressive curriculum designed for
future art educators who are determined to form a solid bridge between the
personal experience of art and its capacity to enrich the lives of today’s
communities and their individual members. Core courses lay the foundation in
education, psychology and art theory as they apply to formal instruction and
informal program development in a wide range of media and subject areas. Every
student receives intensive experience in studio arts to develop artistry and
technical skills, forming a basis of understanding for the practice of teaching.
Advanced “special topics” coursework focuses on current issues in art policy,
the history of art, visual culture, lifelong learning, and their interaction in
the contemporary artistic culture in our society.

Description:
The unique aspect of this program is its commitment to object-based teaching in
a professional environment, made possible by its situation within The
Smithsonian Associates, Smithsonian Institution, in Washington, DC. The
intention of this program is not to move away from the close study of the art
works, but to integrate that formal analysis with substantive critical thought
and historical research. We seek out faculty who are sympathetic to this
pedagogic approach and students who embrace this intellectual challenge. The
mission of this graduate program is to realize the history of decorative arts as
a field of serious and significant scholarship.
