East Asia Through the Lens of Visual and Material Culture
Enriching K-12 classroom learning environment through a multicultural experience
Context
East Asia today represents a broad mosaic of ethnic, economic, geographic, and cultural diversity. Even in our current period of rapid political and economic globalization, within which the region has played a major transformative role, East Asia retains its deep and rich cultural and artistic traditions and practices. This free foundational survey includes interactive lectures and activities focusing on the visual and artistic material cultures of China, Japan, Korea and Vietnam. K-12 educators will explore and integrate a wide range of strategies and resources supporting an enriched classroom learning environment.
