The second part introduces the philosophy and pedagogical frameworks such as artist-teacher narratives, various learning theories, adolescent and adult development for the best practices of studio teaching. All incoming graduate students in the Department of Art are required to take the Teaching Workshop in the fall semester in their first year.
