The Southeast Center for Education in the Arts (SCEA) provides innovative professional development in arts education and arts integration to enhance teaching and deepen learning. The goal is to establish comprehensive arts education as an integral component of basic education for all students. SCEA’s professional development programs create exciting opportunities for personal and professional discovery, nurturing the artist within and fostering the artistry of teaching.
Building on its seminal work in discipline-based arts education, SCEA has evolved incorporating emerging theories and methodologies in interdisciplinary education, placing it at the cutting edge of current practice in arts integration. SCEA’s approach employs concept-based curriculum design to facilitate the unique learning opportunities fostered at the nexus of disciplines.
As a professional development provider, SCEA collaborates with schools and organizations across the country providing consulting services, demonstrating integrated instruction, and crafting custom, site-specific programs tailored to the needs and resources of distinct communities. Personnel travel nationwide and internationally teaching classes, conducting workshops, working on committees, and serving as consultants and writers for professional organizations and state education departments.
The Southeast Center for Education in the Arts fosters unique collaborations among people and institutions, significantly impacting local, state, and national education policy and practice. The Tennessee Arts Commission awarded SCEA its Governor’s Arts Leadership Award for nurturing creative inquiry into teaching and learning.
