"The impacts of art in every aspect of our lives, we realize it or not."
Randy Pausch The infamous "Last Lecture" circles Internet as if it were brand new, hot from the oven. He gave the conference for months before he did not have much time. It is ironic that the hypothetical last lecture hits so close to home for us all.
Hypothetically if you were dying, what you say in your last conference? For Randy Pausch, who is not a hypothetical situation. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and doctors gave him only a few months to live.
So walk on the stage at Carnegie Mellon, where he taught, who delivered his last lecture. A conference was videotaped and downloaded more than six million times. The conference resulted in the notes and the file has been copied, email, published and read by millions. The conference has become a book by the Wall Street Journal writer Jeff Zaslow, a writer Randy affectionately considered the best writer on earth.
Last Lecture Randy took him on CBS Evening News with Katie Couric, ABC World News with Charles Gibson and Good Morning America "with Diane Sawyer. He even gave a shorter version ten minutes of the conference on Oprah. To say the least people, There are very few in this world who are current on news and society that do not know the name of Randy Pausch.
While his audience understood the central idea of his message and went with "Do not pity me." I walked away with something else. As a journalist said that the lesson has been twelve times to get something new each time, I must say I was too. However, I have a very important message that will stay with me forever.
When Randy Pausch talks about the head fake, he's talking football. As a child, I wanted to play in the NFL. There were also other dreams like being in zero gravity with as Captain Kirk, winning stuffed animals at the amusement park and being a Disney imaginer. But as in football taught him much more than just the three points of support or how to read a play. Football teaches players like, "Teamwork, sportsmanship, perseverance … etc" That's the head fake. Kids Go on something like football because they like it. But to leave him life lessons that will carry with them once his days of playing football are over.
Randy I've heard about it and I realized that I had been saying that about art. What Randy was saying about football is the case art. Children and adults come into an art studio to learn to be Picasso and away with more.
- The arts teach children to be more tolerant and open.
- The arts allow children to express themselves creatively.
- The arts promote individuality, boost confidence in itself, and improve overall academic performance.
- The arts can help troubled youth, providing an alternative to criminal behavior and faults while providing a better attitude toward school.
- Has a measurable impact on youth at risk in deterring delinquent behavior and problems absenteeism, while also increasing overall academic performance among those youth engaged in after school and summer arts programs targeted at the crime prevention.
With all this happens in the mind of student art, how schools could ever think of taking art out of the curriculum? However, schools across the country are decreasing due to some educators believe that art is a waste of time when students can learn to read, write and arithmetic. Not everyone can play football and not everyone is interested in football. Art is a necessary part of the life of a child which must be submitted at least every student who enters school.
"In Sampson County, North Carolina, standardized test results was two years in a row. All that had changed in the county during those years was the introduction of arts education. "Chip Zullinger, Superintendent Sampson County (NC) Schools.
If that is true, if students are actually a better performance after Art Education was introduced in the curriculum, why would anyone want to exclude it from the lives of their children? As football was Randy Pausch, from what I've been changing the lives of people of art. "It may not seem to affect us directly. However, it the head fake. Just when you think you are becoming Picasso, who realized more about you than you ever imagined.
If more people were in the PTA and expressed positive opinions about the inclusion of art into the curriculum of the education, would never be taken out of schools. But if you face the reality that art can be removed from the school of your child, look at art supply for their community yourself. If you do not think you can learn the art well enough to teach, collaborate with a local artist who can. Opening a workshop and make sure it is in able to offer its community art schools when they do not. It is so important!
