10 LESSONS THE ARTS TEACHby Elliot Eisner, Art Education Researcher and Scholar
1. The arts teach children to make good judgments about qualitative relationships. Unlike much of the
curriculum in which correct answers and rules prevail, in the arts, it is judgment rather than
rules that prevail.

2. The arts teach children that problems can have
more than one solution and that questions can have more than one answer.

3. The arts celebrate multiple perspectives. One of their large lessons is that there are many ways to see
and interpret the world.

4. The arts teach children that in complex forms of problem solving
purposes are seldom fixed, but change with circumstance and opportunity.
Learning in the arts requires the ability and a willingness to surrender to the
unanticipated possibilities of the work as it unfolds.

5. The arts make vivid the fact that neither words in their literal form nor numbers exhaust what we can know. The limits of our language
do not determine the limits of our cognition.

6. The arts teach students that small differences can have large
effects. The arts traffic in subtleties.

7. The arts teach students to think through and within a material. All
art forms employ some means through which images become
real.

8. The arts help children learn to say what cannot be said. When children
are invited to disclose what a work of art helps them feel, they must reach
into their poetic capacities to find the words that will do the job.

9. The arts enable us to have experience we can have from no other source and through such experience to discover the range and variety of what
we are capable of feeling.
