This quantitative study investigated the research question, what factors lead to satisfaction in arts management internships?

Show moreThis quantitative study investigated the research question, what factors lead to satisfaction in arts management internships? Based on the results of the study, job characteristics such as skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback, and work environment characteristics such as learning opportunities, supervisory support, career development opportunities, co-worker support, and organization satisfaction are the greatest factors of satisfaction in arts management internships. These results challenge previous studies (Cuyler XXABSTRACT Hodges, 2016; Cuyler XXABSTRACT Hodges, 2015; and Cuyler, Hodges, XXABSTRACT Hauptman, 2013) that suggested that compensating interns will increase their satisfaction with arts management internships. The results of this study indicate that cultural organizations can significantly increase their interns’ satisfaction with their internships by assigning them meaningful tasks and cultivating a collegial work environment. This study has implications for the conceptualization, design, and management of internships in cultural organizations.

The Efficacy of Using Service Learning to Teach about Social Justice Issues in the US Cultural Sector.

Abstract/Description
Over the last seven years, the US sector primarily concerned with arts and culture has increasingly focused on social justice issues. However, scholars have rarely empirically examined if and how arts management educators teach about social justice issues. Therefore, this participant-oriented evaluation investigated the efficacy of using service learning with a culturally specific arts organization to teach graduate students about social justice issues.

Show moreOver the last seven years, the US sector primarily concerned with arts and culture has increasingly focused on social justice issues. However, scholars have rarely empirically examined if and how arts management educators teach about social justice issues. Therefore, this participant-oriented evaluation investigated the efficacy of using service learning with a culturally specific arts organization to teach graduate students about social justice issues. Based on an analysis of the quantitative data, this evaluative study determined that service learning with a culturally specific arts organization is an effective approach to teach graduate students about social justice issues, as well as principles of socially responsible arts administration. Given the results, this study has implications for graduate curricula and experiential education in arts administration.

The goal is to decenter and dismisses racism and mis-education frequently found in majoritarian stories using methods similar to Faith Ringgold's art and artistic processes. Together students and teacher crafted a telling of Black and Brown elementary school students' stories. Storytelling is both my research content and approach. The goal is to create a positive narrative about Black and Brown students' culture in public school settings. Informed by Paulo Freire's (1993) Critical Pedagogy, Critical Theory and Critical Art a category I have defined as a composition of visual elements that are composed to engage and/or provoke the viewer to examine, critique, or question her reality, we offer a critical perspective on social issues, provokes thought, conversation, and action on a personal, communal, or global level to help in gaining freedom, justice, or equality. Race, gender, poverty, identity and education are common and important considerations in this category. The resulting written and visual meta-narrative presents a new perspective, giving way to a deepened understanding of the educational experiences of African American children public K-8 school (Barone & Eisner, 2012).

This study surveyed graduate students (N=40) to answer the research question, “Does service learning help graduate students learn how to write grant proposals for the cultural sector?” In addition to assessing students’ acquisition of Grant Professionals Certification Institute (GPCI) competencies 1, 2, 3, 4, and 9, this study measured the benefits students gain when an educator used service learning to teach a graduate course on “Grant Writing & Development in the Arts.” The study also identified ways to improve the service learning experience for students.

Therefore, this participant-oriented evaluative case study answers two questions, (1) what best practices has the Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts used to develop a successful internship program? In addition (2), why has the Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts internship program been so successful? With answers to these questions, this study contributes to practice and will enhance the conceptualization, design, implementation, management, and planning of internship programs in cultural organizations.

To accomplish Dorn’s goal, Arts Management should address three critical issues: (1) the need to establish a discipline and profession specific research agenda, (2) faculty preparedness to conduct and supervise research, and (3) student education in research, to guide the development of Research.

To accomplish Dorn’s goal, Arts Management should address three critical issues: (1) the need to establish a discipline and profession specific research agenda, (2) faculty preparedness to conduct and supervise research, and (3) student education in research, to guide the development of Research. Addressing these three issues will ensure Arts Management’s ability to benefit from and protect its intellectual capital while developing a reputation as a viable academic discipline and profession.
