Feelings - what I have felt in the past (feedback). Running on stress, adrenalin, heightened nervous system.

How do we calm our nervous system? How do we bring it back to neutral? The arts improve healing outcomes. Lower the parasympathetic nervous system (inside of us) - reset to normal by engaging in artistic experiences. Improve achievement & job satisfaction. Heal the way we work through the world. Why are the arts a catalyst for healing? Data: Heart Mind Institute: Connection of the heart and mind. Connection between the head and the heart. Brain is not necessarily doing all the operation. It is a two way dialogue where the heart and mind are connecting. The heart impacts the brain. 

Embed creativity and curiosity in our classrooms.

"We're finding that [arts education is] increasing student engagement, it's increasing students' tolerance levels, it's increasing their compassion, it's reducing disciplinary infractions. And those are all findings that are coming from well executed, rigorous research. Together, these make for important currency in education policy debates when decision makers are determining where to allocate resources and where to focus their efforts."

Theatre would be all about collaboration, presentation and problem solving. Music classes would emphasize creative habit, teamwork, honing skills, composition, improvisation.

We’d teach creative process, how to come up with ideas, how to find inspiration, how to steal from the greats. We’d teach kids to work effectively with others to improve and test their ideas. We’d teach them how to realize their ideas, get them executed through a supply chain, how to present and market and share them.

We’d also emphasize digital creativity, focussing on cutting edge (and cheap) technology, removing the artificial divide between arts and science, showing how engineering and sculpture are related, how drawing and User Experience (UX) Design are facets of the same sort of skills, how music and math mirror each other.  Gregory, D.
