Some of the questions seem practical in nature. Should we call for specialist teachers or train regular classroom teachers in the arts? Should we focus on one or two art forms or provide the whole menu of genres and forms? Should we have a uniform curriculum across cities or states? Should we employ standardized tests? But one soon encounters issues that exceed the merely practical. To what extent should arts classes be used to foster creativity? Should art be taught separately or infused across the standard curriculum? Is there a privileged canon of Western art, or does the art of our civilization merely take its place among many other equally meritorious traditions? Should art training focus on productive skills, or should there be an emphasis on connoisseurship? Is artistic knowledge primarily factual, or does it involve unique forms of cognition and metacognition?
