Trending: PROFESSIONAL LEARNING FOR CHANGING EDUCATIONAL NEEDS
M E S S A G E F R O M T H E P R E S I D E N TBY ROBYN MACNAIR
The workforce is shifting. New job trends are emerging. California is home to the U.S. Creative Economy Capital. How are art educators equipping students to become part of a highly qualified workforce through exceptional college and career preparation? And, how is it possible to stay fresh in one’s teaching practice because it’s good for students, as well as a requirement of the standards for the California Teaching Profession? The answers lie in effective ongoing professional development.
It’s important to note the jobs employers need done in today’s workforce are evolving, and they need people with different skills to do them, and they need them done in different ways than in the past. This overall shift in the needs of buyers of talent has created an imbalance in the supply versus demand for workers with the desired skills. While there may be jobs available workers, they don’t have the right skills or experience. It is increasingly an issue of quality versus quantity. Work is becoming much more project-based, which lends itself to point-specific resources engaged on a flexible basis.
As more work shifts towards being technology and specialized skills-based, this issue will only become more acute. Increasingly, companies are defining new roles for which there is limited supply.
Research shows that teaching quality and school leadership are the most important factors in raising student achievement. For teachers and school and district leaders to be as eff effective as possible, they must
continually expand their knowledge and skills to implement the best educational practices. Teacher quality is at the heart of first-best instruction, the number one resource for academic achievement.
College and university programs cannot provide the extensive range of learning experiences necessary for graduates to become effective public school educators. Once students graduate, meet their state’s certification requirements, and are employed, they learn through experience, and they need to implement an ongoing practice of staying current in educational trends through professional learning – particularly art educators who are so often overlooked in the mix.
With new art standards with significant paradigm shifts to be implemented, the need for professional learning is more critical than ever. And, the need to stay connected to district priorities in education is particularly important so that art educators stay aligned with such to keep relevant and connected to the school’s plan for student achievement rather than being relegated to a “nice” thing for students to do, but the first thing to get cut when the enrollment declines and cutbacks hit.
Teachers who do not experience effective professional development do not improve their skills, and student learning suffers. As in all professions, new teachers and principals take years to gain the skills they need to be effective in their roles. Even experienced teachers confront great challenges each year, including changes in subject content, new instructional methods, advances in technology, changed laws and procedures, and student learning needs.
Professional development can take on many forms including
• Individual reading/study/research.
• Study groups among peers focused on a shared need or topic.
• Observation: teachers observing other teachers.
• Coaching: an expert teacher coaching one or more colleagues.
• Mentoring of new educators by more experienced colleagues.
• Team meetings to plan lessons, problem solve, improve performance, and/or learn a new strategy.
• Faculty, grade-level, or departmental meetings.
• Online courses.
• College/university courses.
• Workshops to dig deeper into a subject.
• Conferences to learn from a variety of expertise from around the state or country.
• Whole-school improvement programs.
• Proprietary programs by private vendors.

Professional Learning That Meets Your Needs
In the time that I have been back from NAEA Boston, I have been reflecting on which sessions I chose to attend, and why. My professional learning interests have changed now that I am a district arts administrator, rather than in the classroom. When I was in the art classroom, I wanted to learn new projects from teachers who taught the same grades and courses that I taught. Now, I am more interested in learning from other administrators who have been successful in building support for their programs, as well as from leaders of other state art organizations.
I attended a session called “Building Equitable Access to Quality Arts Education,” with Myran Parker-Brass, who has led the arts team for Boston Public Schools. Over the course of ten years, arts funding doubled, through a combination of public and private funding. While some of her success depended on finding a superintendent who actively supported the arts, many of the challenges she had to overcome are familiar: principals who believe their most important task consists of raising math and language arts scores, teachers who are reluctant to re-examine their teaching practices, and, of course, insufficient funding.
I also had the opportunity to have some conversations with the leaders of other state art organizations. Some states have a co-presidency model, or divide their state into as many as ten regions, each with their own board. Other states have a single year for president elects and past presidents, lessening the total commitment to four years, and this possibly making leadership roles less daunting.
My takeaway is that our professional learning needs change over the course of our careers, and what we need from our organization changes, as well. As I prepare to become President of CAEA in January of 2020, I hope you will share with me what you want from our organization. To remain a vibrant and growing organization, we need to continue to adapt to the changing professional learning needs of our members.
What do you value most about our organization? What do you wish our organization would do differently? I invite you to share your thoughts with me at [email protected].

As Art educators, we strive to learn best practices to teach students 21st-century skills and to be effective advocates for art education. So how do we keep up to date with new methodologies, art education resources and tools, art standards, art education policies and advocacy, and innovative ideas and lessons? There are various paths to attain professional learning such as joining a professional organization, taking university courses, enrolling in online education, participating in school or district professional development, going to conferences or workshops, and taking classes from a county office of education.
One of these paths to attain personal learning is to be a member of a professional organization such as CAEA (California Art Education Association). Being a CAEA member provides opportunities for professional learning and to engage with art educators in a professional environment. CAEA gives you a dual membership with NAEA, and this also provides you with a state and national network of art educators and opportunities.
On November 14-17, 2019, you will have the opportunity to attend the CAEA Conference in Sacramento that has the theme of “Teaching Art…It’s Your Superpower.” At the conference, you can attend many different types of sessions, Master classes, and workshops; listen to keynote speakers such as Dr. Lois Hetland, Ed.D. (Professor and Graduate Coordinator in
the Art Education Department at the Massachusetts College of Art and author of Studio Thinking from the Start: The K-8 Art Educator’s Handbook (2018)), Simon Silva, (artist, author, and speaker on Cultivate A Creative Mind: 21st Century Skills), and Bridget Quinn (the author of Broad Strokes: 15 Women Who Made Art and Made History), and meet other art educators in California. All of these opportunities will help you build a professional learning network and socialize with like-minded art educators. On March 26-28, 2020, NAEA will hold its national convention in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which is another annual opportunity for professional learning that you can attend. Both of these annual conferences have provided me opportunities to be connected to art educators within my state and nationally, learn new skills and methodologies, gain insights from speakers, be an advocate for art education, gain leadership skills, and leave with new energy and enthusiasm to bring back to my work.
Other ways to get involved are to volunteer for a CAEA position such as YAM coordinator, run for a CAEA board position, volunteer to help with the planning of the conference, join other members in advocacy work or attend Art Smart events in your local region. Reach out to be with other art educators in your state and join to build a more connected art community.

MESSAGE FROM SOUTHERN AREA PRESIDENT
Southern Area NewsSpring is finally here as the days grow warmer and the rain showers are finally slowing down. Youth Art Month has been keeping many of us super busy these past few months with local YAM shows, the Southern Area show, and the State show. We can finally celebrate our students and rejoice in their hard work. Our dedicated YAM Coordinators are truly an AMAZING group of individuals. They spend months ahead preparing for the annual YAM show. Many nights are busy with coordinating artwork, filling out paperwork, scouting for community sponsors, finalizing a venue, and printing up a program and certificates for the students. The end result is a memorable moment celebrating young artists and their families. Please take the time to thank one if not all of your YAM coordina-tors for their commitment to promoting Youth Art Month in your area. I am thankful and grateful for each and every one of them for representing our Area. We are looking for a group of individuals who would like to start a local area YAM show in the Ventura County Area. Please contact me if you are interested in getting it organized.
Here in the Southern Area there have been many artistic opportunities to indulge or refine skills in the arts. Whether it is a photo moment amidst major traffic amongst glorious orange blooms called the, “Poppy Apocalypse”, a Chunky Knit Blanket Workshop, basket weaving with a guru, or partak-ing in the city Art Walk, I hope that everyone has had a chance to try something new. If you are still looking for more things to do or just want to get started, here are a few events coming up:
CLAY DAY Entrance fee includes one adult and up to 15 students. $35 for CAEA members and $50 for non-members and their students. Teams are encouraged to wear matching T-shirts. Please email Larry Oviatt at [email protected] to sign up for this event.
ART EDUCATOR WORKSHOP Saturday, July 13th at Azusa Pacific Univer-sity from 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. Featuring Tiffany Fox and our very own CAEA member Don Masse. Entrance fee is $10. There will be an exhibition, gal-leries, art integration, and hands on workshop sessions. Please RSVP with Erin Weaver at [email protected] to sign up for this event.
SOUTHERN AREA MEMBERS ART SHOW Potocki Center for Art in Mis-sion Viejo on Friday, August 2nd from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm and Saturday, August 3rd from Noon to 3:00 pm. There is no limit on size or number for 2-D work. For 3-D work, the gallery only has counter top display. If you have smaller pieces, they should be in a display cabinet or some kind that will sit on the countertop. If you cannot drop off the artwork, you have the option to mail it with a return prepaid postage.
Penny is still looking for contact people in different areas to be able to receive work from those who can’t make the drop-off dates. Central LA – West LA – San Fernando Valley – Glendale/Pasadena – Riverside – Orange County – Ventura County – San Diego – High Desert – any other areas you can add. Please contact Penny Venola at [email protected]

MESSAGE FROM SAN DIEGO AREA PRESIDENT
San Diego’s calendar is now full of exciting exhibitions and resources for art educators. Our member-ship pool is growing strong with diverse expertise and backgrounds. Members are encouraged to make the commitment to their annual renewal and to not work alone in the world of art education, as we all have the same goals in mind.
The Rose Art Gallery of The Francis Parker School hosted our Youth Art Month San Diego 2019 and welcomed over 150 works of art from K-12. Our award winners traveled the following weekend a tad north to the Southern California YAM at the Riverside Art Museum and joined with other CAEA Area groups to continue the YAM collaboration.
Upcoming, The San Diego Art Institute in Balboa Park will feature our 6th Annual Groff Exhibition (An Annual
Exhibition of the Finest High School Art in San Diego County) June 1-16, 2019. The exhibition is open to all high school students working in any media, grades 9-12 in San Diego County via Art Call in April. SDAI has a new art educators discounted membership rate of $30 and hopes to see more teachers become a part of their creative community.
This year, we are planning monthly social gatherings at various art walks and art openings. We hope to see CAEASD members support this endeavor, show our support for these events, and of course make friendships with fellow art educators.
The San Diego County Office of Education’s Visual and Performing Arts department has an amazing team who continually encourage all CAEASD members to actively participate in all of their workshops, exhibitions, and the MEGA conference, held annually in October. What a resource and support they are to us!
On a more personal note, thank you for allowing me to serve as CAEASD council president. This leadership position allows me to enable people to become active and engaged members and I love that. We have an abundance of resources and will keep our momentum strong.
Suggestions, input, assistance, and involvement is always welcome at CAEASD.

BY KRISTIN TAYLORRegional Chair
I have always felt that spring is New Years for an art educator, not January. August may seem a more likely comparison, however spring is when I start to make declarations, or rather resolutions, for how I will approach the rest of the school year and what I will change in the next. It is the time of year that administration crams in observations, last minute initiatives, or asks for my crystal-ball predictions for the next year’s budget. It feels like there is never enough time to tackle all of the things I said “yes” to months ago. However, when I get through the stress and deadlines, I emerge feeling ready to reflect.
Spring is when I look back at how I have failed, what I have accomplished, and what I should have done differently. I reflect on what lessons will get cut down or built up within the visual art curriculum next year. I make resolutions to do better and not be so hard on myself when I fall short. In spring, I think more about self-care while counting down the days until beak. I look forward to returning with a fresh perspective and the energy to get to the end of the year. Being privileged to go to the National Art Education Convention and being with other art educators always gives me the boost I need to end the year on a high note. I hope you too were able to attend and see the great things that elementary art educators are doing around the world.
As we inch closer to the end of the year, take a moment to celebrate your successes while honoring your mistakes. As elementary art educators we know the importance of reflecting on failure. It makes us smarter and stronger for the next time we take a risk. Even when your plans for next year are unknown, take the time to celebrate yourself and your accomplishments. Imagine where you want to be or what you want to be doing next year. Remember to tell everyone that will listen about your goals--you never know who can help you make them happen. Start breaking down your big ideas or overwhelming tasks into small attainable goals that can be checked off a list each week. The idea of moving mountains within your elementary art program can be overwhelming if you don’t look at each step as a success. I live by the question: How do you eat an elephant? The answer is one bite at a time. We, as art educators, can accomplish so much in a year, let’s take a moment to celebrate every victory. Share your triumphs on Instagram and Twitter by using the #caeaelementary and stay connected with our amazing elementary division.

FOCUS ON THE
New VAPA Standards AT THE CAEA STATE CONFERENCE
With the adoption of the new VAPA Standards and the new Framework just around the corner, CAEA has invited Letty Krause, CDE, to present an overview of the new standards and a special workshop with a panel of noted experts on how to roll out the new standards in your district. Along with Letty, we have invited Lindsay Weiss, CDE to speak about the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). Learn how your classroom can become an exam-ple of UDL. Access and equity will be important concepts in your classroom and school. Letty and Lindsay will do each session twice so as many people as possible can at-tend each session. Share this important news with your administrator when you ask for funding to attend.
Advocacy and Art IS THURSDAY NOVEMBER 14
Join us at the Lions Gate Hotel at 1PM to carpool or bus to the state capital. It is CAEA Visual Art Education Advocacy Day. Visit YOUR state representative and share with them why art education is important to the students in their district. Advocacy packets will be provided. We suggest you bring a piece of student artwork to give your representative. Be sure and photograph you giving it to the representative-your district will like to see that. After the advocacy visits you can choose from a couple differ-ent walking or bus tours of public art in downtown Sacra-mento. Then sign up for the workshop at the Crocker or just wander the museum. Thursday night is always a fun night for all at the Crocker. Special events and music are always on the docket.

Lois HetlandDr. Lois Hetland, Professor of Art Education and Graduate Coordina-
tor at Massachusetts College of Art and De-
sign, is a teacher, cognitive psychologist, researcher, and vocalist and visual artist by training. She taught PK-12 students for 17 years, conducted research at Project Zero at the Harvard Graduate School of Education from 1992-2011, and now teaches art education to undergrad-uates, graduate students, and practicing educators. Her research addresses arts cognition and professional practice in educational settings, and she is the lead faculty for MassArt’s new Research Hub, which is focusing on equitable partner-ships between practitioners and research-ers around learning and teaching in art and design.
Her research addresses arts cognition and professional practice in educational settings, and she is the lead faculty for MassArt’s new Research Hub, which is focusing on equitable partnerships between practitioners and researchers around learning and teaching in art and design. She is co-author of Studio Think-ing from the Start: The K-8 Art Educator’s Handbook (2018), and Studio Thinking2: The Real Benefits of Visual Arts Education
(2013, 2nd Edition), and she consults fre-quently across the US and internationally on arts education, arts-integration, and arts assessment.
The reviews of her books show the impor-tance of her message for all art educators.
“The eight studio habits of mind should become a conceptual framework for all preservice art education programs; this book should be read by all early and expe-rienced art educators.” ―Mary Ann Stankiewicz, The Pennsylva-nia State University
“Hetland and her colleagues reveal doz-ens of practical measures that could be adopted by any arts program, inside or outside of the school….This is a bold new step in arts education.” ―David R. Olson, Professor Emeritus, University of Toronto
“Winner and Hetland have set out to show what it means to take education in the arts seriously, in its own right.” ―The New York Times
The Studio Habits have been adopted by many secondary teachers, but Lois Hetland working with her team of re-searchers and teachers have shown that the classroom approach can be used with Kindergarten through HS. The habits and structures have also helped teach-ers – in all arts and in other subjects – and have helped to clarify what is essential in shared courses with interdisciplin-ary teams. Findings also support arts advocates, policy-makers, funders, and researchers in understanding, describ-ing, and investigating the thinking central to the arts that can be learned in studio classrooms.
Lois will speak on the Value of Art Educa-tion, a topic so critical for the students across our state that CAEA has extended an invitation to all administrators to attend the keynote for free. This pass is only good for the keynote and no other conference events. So please invite your principal or district coordinator—see the website for directions on how to attend. Limited ticket availability.

Simon SilvaThe final keynote Sat-urday afternoon, No-vember 16th at 4:00 pm is Simon’ Silva,
author and artist.
“Simon Silva has lived the creative experience he passionately shares. His story is compelling and makes an impact on those who hear it.” — Cris Guenter, Professor, California State University, Chico
Simon will share an insightful view of cre-ativity, while telling a compelling story of struggle and hope. Simon connects with audiences with a powerful message about perseverance and success. This keynote nurtures 21st Century skills and helps individuals regain creative confidence.
Simón Silva has taken on this mission to educate others on artistic communication because he wishes someone had reached out to him in the same manner that he is reaching out. Silva says, “Employing artistic communication in our daily lives will create better professionals by making them better communicators, by getting them to ask the right questions. It also will provide individuals with the opportu-nity to find out who they are, what they feel, how they think.” Simón Silva wants to help create a society of critical think-ers and problem solvers, which will bring change to our world. Simón Silva is bring-ing creativity back!
“Through personal anecdotes, simple ex-ercises, and reflective question this book
can help anyone begin to uncover their own creative genius.” — Laura Solis, School Principal
Simon Silva’s message of how we as art teachers can open the world of creativity to all students is both critical and timely. Thus, we are inviting local administrators to come and hear Simon Silva, Saturday, Nov. 16, 4PM for free. This pass is only good for the keynote.
Bridget QuinnOn Saturday morning at 9:00 am, Bridget Quinn will take a lighter note discussing
the unknown women artists of the Renaissance
from her best seller, Broad Strokes. Bridget Quinn is a writer, art his-tory scholar, and educator. She’s worked at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and has taught art history and architecture at Portland State University, the Chautauqua Institution, the San Francisco Waldorf High School, and other fine institutions.
Historically, major women artists have been excluded from the mainstream art
canon. Aligned with the resurgence of feminism in pop culture, Broad Strokes offers an entertaining corrective to that omission. Art historian Bridget Quinn delves into the lives and careers of 15 brilliant female artists in text that’s smart, feisty, educational, and an enjoyable read. Replete with beautiful reproductions of the artists’ works and contemporary por-traits of each artist by renowned illustra-tor Lisa Congdon, this is art history from 1600 to the present day for the modern art lover, reader, and feminist.
