  9. James Catterall Research Interests Arts and human development; Arts and neuroscience / brain structure and function; Evaluation of Arts - Integration Programs: Joining the visual and performance arts with academic subjects; Issues generally related to education policy implementation; Issues related to children at-risk of school failure Recent Publications Doing Well and Doing Good by Doing Art: A 12-year Longitudinal Study of Arts Education-- Effects on the Achievements and Values of Young Adults. Los Angeles, CA: I-Group Books. 2009. (Second Printing, November 2009.)

  10. Catterall’s Findings: • “Intensive involvement in the arts associates with higher levels of achievement and college attainment, also with many indications of pro-social behavior such as volunteerism and political participation.” • “More than 70% of the high arts group attended college after high school compared to 50% of the low arts group.”

  11. Into college and careers: • Once in college, the high arts group achieved significantly higher grades than the low arts group. • Into their careers, the students with high arts involvement (not surprisingly) have higher paying and more professional jobs, and are more engaged with their communities. • See p. 215 in Merryl’s book for more context as well as her blog: http://blog.artsusa.org/2010/05/24/arts-education-informed-by-catterall-and-ravitch/

  14. Ravitch continued • From 1997 to 2004, she was a member of the National Assessment Governing Board, which oversees the National Assessment of Educational Progress, the federal testing program. She was appointed by the Clinton administration’s Secretary of Education Richard Riley in 1997 and reappointed by him in 2001. • Latest book: • Diane Ravitch, The Death and Life of the Great American School System: How Testing and Choice Are Undermining Education (New York: Basic Books, 2010). • References to Ravitch in Merryl’s book p. 2, and 215-216 and in artsblog (same as Catterall)

  15. Quotes: • Ravitich came to see the downside to testing in that it was not a solution to educational needs. • “I concluded that curriculum and instruction were far more important than choice and accountability. Testing, I realized with dismay, had become a central preoccupation in the schools and was not just a measure but an end in itself. I became to believe that accountability as written into federal laws was not raising standards, but dumbing down the schools as states and districts…” (p.12-13).

  16. Responsibility and Teaching • “It is time, I think, for those who want to improve our schools to focus on the essentials of education. We must make sure that that our schools have a strong, coherent, explicit curriculum that is grounded in liberal arts and sciences, with plenty of opportunity for children to engage in activities and projects that make learning lively….We must be sure they are prepared for the responsibilities of democratic citizenship in a complex society. We must take care that our teachers are well educated and not just well trained” (p.13).

  17. The well educated person • “Knowledge and skills are both important, as is learning to think, debate, and question. A well educated person has a well furnished mind, shaped by reading and thinking about history, science, literature, the arts, and politics. The well educated person has learned how to explain ideas and listen respectfully to others” (p. 16).
