Several people saw my posts on our facebook page of the voting during delegates assembly for NAEA. Some asked, "What are you voting on?" So I want to share briefly what happens during the delegates assembly. This year in Ft. Worth we began on Thursday at 8:00 am and ended around 4:00 pm. During that time we focused on the 5 proposed position statements that were added to the NAEA Platform Document. These statements represent NAEA's official position on issues of importance to our field and to education in general. During the summer Leaders come together for summer leadership meetings in each region and work on the ideas for these statements. You can view the documents at the NAEA website www.arteducators.org in the "About us" section under "NAEA Platform and Position Statements.
The Draft New Position Statements presented for Review and discussion by the delegates assembly, March 2013 are listed below.
Platform Category: Art Educators
* Position Statement on Teacher Evaluation and Student Growth
* Position Statement on Visual Art and its relationship to CTE (Career Technical Education)
Platform Category: Curriculum
*Position Statement on Arts Integration
Platform Category: Instruction
*Position Statement on Distance Learning in Art Education
Platform Category: Assessment
* Position Statement on Student assessment in the visual arts classroom
We also reviewed 5 Position statements adopted in 2010
On Thursday we met from 10-12 to review the statements with revisions from the day before and then we voted on each one. It is really awesome to work with other state leaders and really feel that you have made a difference.
