Abstract
Arts integration, a teaching approach that uses concepts integral to both arts and non-arts
areas, is increasingly being used to reach disenfranchised learners while at the same time
replenishing teachers and changing teacher practice. The purpose of this paper is to
present evidence of teacher practice change from research on a large urban school
district’s arts integration initiative by addressing the question, “What effect has arts
integration had on teacher practice?”
