Abstract
This paper is reflective of the decline in specialist (Art/Design) teacher education and the lack of initiative in developing a digital rationale within the UK Art and Design curriculum According to the range of sampling afforded by the authors evolving roles [1] little appears to have changed in art and design since the reported findings shared with the World Congress in 2002. [2]New online tools have emerged in accessible forms and provide participatory and collaborative gateways. While the related research in this field indicates that there has been a paradigm shift to the ‘social dimension’, (‘Social Networks’, ‘Learning Platforms’, ‘Timebased Media’) few art teachers translate these resources in an educational context.
​
The views and opinions expressed in this article are personal but they reflect a genuine concern for a lack of vision in art education (UK), as it continues to follow, rather than lead on creative initiatives.
