DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis monograph is the outgrowth of a conference that explored research concerns related to multi-cultural and cross-cultural contexts in art education. In the monograph, presentations are organized into three sections. Section 1 deals with basic research methods and methodologies, and introduces new methodological perspectives for consideration. Section 2 discusses qualitative methods of research and how to conduct such research in multicultural and cross-cultural settings. Section 3 deals with authentic research issues of assessment and how this determines what is appropriate in multi-cultural and cross-cultural contexts. The final section relates everything to a panel discussion that finalized a series of events which preceded the conference opening (January 6, 2000).
