ELIA ACADEMY 2021 – Call for contributions
ELIA is excited to announce that the 10th ELIA Academy will be held from 19 – 21 May 2021, hosted by LUCA School of Arts and KU Leuven Faculty of Architecture.
ELIA Academy brings together lecturers and students to exchange teaching and learning practices in higher arts education.
Representatives of ELIA member institutions are invited to contribute to the next edition’s programme, exploring the idea of transferable creative intelligence and the concept of the ‘extended artist’.
Be part of the ELIA Academy experience and set the pace in arts education.
This is a critical moment to think about the purpose of creative education and the wider contribution art students can make to a progressive agenda for change within and beyond the creative industries.
At ELIA, we recognise that this is a time of social instability and cultural change. This moment in time can be a chance for re-imagining rather than adapting.
The <extended art student> is looking for curricula and pedagogy that embed shifting digital paradigms, altered skillsets, equality, innovative research initiatives, transdisciplinarity and horizontal collaboration with partners and associates that are traditionally not part of higher arts education.
- How should we prepare art students for an environment of constant change, flexibility and adaptability?
- How do we develop anti-discriminatory pedagogy?
- How should we help students develop transferable creative intelligence that will enable them to work within or beyond their discipline?
Address the questions related to pandemic and uncertainty; equality, diversity and anti-racism; transferable creative intelligence in higher arts education with us. Grasp the chance to present your teaching and learning practice, exchange knowledge and try out innovative methods at ELIA Academy 2021 – a place of experimentation and sharing, a bootcamp for lecturers, art educators, artistic researchers and students.
Showcase your research amongst colleagues from all over the world and play an active role in the development of teaching techniques in the arts.
As a platform for educational innovation, the ELIA Academy encourages submissions that are experimental, participatory, energising, inventive and provocative.
Submission deadline: 15 December 2020
