Reshaping the (Art) World: Integrating Socially Engaged Research into Art History Curriculums
Undergraduate students reap many benefits by engaging in authentic research experiences and benefit even further when these experiences are incorporated into the curriculum. Further, we believe that integrating socially engaged research into the art history curriculum has the potential to reshape hierarchies that have long existed in the field. Socially engaged research is research that produces knowledge through a process that is both inclusive and collaborative as it engenders productive dialogue within and across diverse social groups regarding issues of concern, be they social, political, cultural, environmental, or otherwise. This session brings together those who have an interest in, ideas about, and/or experience with incorporating socially engaged research experiences into the curriculum as a means to foster a more equitable, inclusive, and just (art) world. The panel explores the possibilities of incorporating socially engaged research at all levels of instruction (general education to upper level) and all types of institutions (community colleges, four-year comprehensive universities and colleges, and research universities). Paper topics may address, but are not limited to, how to design projects, overcome challenges, reap benefits, assess outcomes, and negotiate institutional and societal structures.
