- Title
Pórtate bien con la maestra: How the Border Questions Quality in Art Education.
- Authors
Kaplan, Heather; Golding, Diane
- Abstract
This paper troubles and retells the story of quality art education in a STEAM makerspace in an elementary school along the U.S.-Mexico border. Through questioning quality, we embrace the multivalent nature of belonging and the complexity of teaching art and researching with, among, and about others. Boundaries, borders, and belonging are explored through sites of conflicting quality. We consider the Mexican colloquialism ‘Pórtate bien con la maestra” along with progressive art education as competing notions of quality that produce contrasting educational technologies and complicated notions of belonging, invasion, and settlement.
