SHARE YOUR OBSERVATIONS WITH THE CURRICULUM PROJECT
On March 16, The Curriculum Project launched its online survey of people who
care about how we are educating community arts practitioners. The Project
invites people in any of the following five categories to spend a few
minutes assessing the current state of community cultural development
education, both its strengths and its needs: Community artists and
arts/cultural organization leaders; community organization partners (who¹ve
worked with community arts students); educators (in higher education and in
community settings); current students and recent graduates; and friends of
the field (basically everyone else with an interest).

Please go to our survey page at http://www.curriculumproject.net/survey.html
<http://www.curriculumproject.net/survey.html>  and select whichever
category fits you best. Then just click on the link to take the survey.
Other pages at the site provide background information, including a glossary
of key terms. Please encourage friends and colleagues to take part any time
before the survey closes on June 1st. Give us your email address, and we¹ll
let you know as soon as the project report is published this fall; you¹ll be
able to download a copy directly from The Curriculum Project Web site.

The Curriculum Project was conceived by veteran community arts educators and
activists as a way of involving people in the community cultural development
field in taking stock at this important moment of growth: how are we
educating community arts practitioners? How could training in this field be
deepened, strengthened, made more effective? What is needed to effectively
embody the field¹s commitments to scholarship, training, and community
engagement? What is needed to support those doing good work and assist those
who want to develop new, excellent educational programs in community
cultural development?

Thanks for taking part!  FEEL FREE TO FORWARD THIS MESSAGE.
