Arts-based LearningThis approach has been called “Arts-based inquiry” – a term adopted from research literature by Louise Younie
Definition:“student practical engagement with any art form – poetry, photography, painting, narrative, sculpture, dance, music etc. - as they reflect on their experiences” (Younie 2013, p.25)
Art forms can stimulate “inquiry” in the sense of seeking to understand in a new and deeper way

Power of Creative MethodsArts-based methods use symbolic objects = multi-sensory, multi-faceted forms of expression, which can:• generate rich insights by unlocking unconscious ideas,
feelings or memories • employ the power of metaphorical thinking at both
theoretic (reasoning) and poetic (imagination) levels• foster student reflection, self-knowledge, creative thinking
and metacognition (awareness of one’s thinking and learning processes)
• enable “transformative learning” approaches concerned with whole person development
