Art Education This study tells the story of a national initiative started in 1973 to promote arts education nationwide: The Alliance for Arts Education project. The Alliance though housed at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts has been a part of the United States Department of Education's efforts for the past 24 years to promote arts education nationally and has received funding through the USDOE and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 starting with its reauthorization in 1973. In spite of the Alliance's congressional mandate to promote arts education nationwide, virtually nothing is known about its evolution, contributions, and impact on national arts education policy and programming. This lack of information has hindered educational reformers and policy makers throughout the nation when addressing the pressing issues facing educational reform, especially with arts education. This study begins to fill in this information gap and provides a basis upon which to understand and determine the Alliance's place in the history and development of arts education nationally. The study utilizes both traditional historical and oral history inquiry methods to construct a story that broadly explores the development of this national arts education initiative by placing it in the political and historical contexts that influenced its evolution. The study also analyzes the Alliances development and evolution in light of the theory concerning public policy development, implementation, and evaluation. 1997 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392815107 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392815107 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
