Examine the literature pertaining to the history of American art to ascertain the most pertinent and meaningful body of knowledge appropriate to a unit on American art in an eighth grade. 2. Devise the visual means for presenting this material to students. 3. Study the kinds of creative learning activities in art in the eighth grade that would relate to a study of American art, and select activities appropriate to the purpose of the study for the unit. 4. Integrate the material on American artists and their work with the creative activities in an especially constructed unit. 5. Determine by means of especially constructed tests, student's weekly written records, and evaluated student work whether knowledge was gained through the learning unit"--Introduction. / "August, 1962." / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate School of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Ivan E.
