Interweaving and Co-Creation: Diverse pathways of Arts Education InternationalConference
Background to the Conference
Within the field of contemporary arts education, teaching, creative practice, and research no longer follow a single, linear trajectory. Instead, they unfold as a dynamic network of multiple pathways—intersecting, intertwining, and diverging over time. Curriculum design within classrooms, collaborative projects between rural schools and local communities, educational programmes led by museums and cultural institutions, art interventions integrated with counselling, healthcare, and public health, as well as cross-disciplinary experiments connecting technology, design, and digital humanities, can all be understood as integral components of the DNA of arts education.
Arts education is continually written, rewritten, and reconnected across diverse contexts, shaping developmental trajectories in which multiple communities and generations are mutually entangled and responsive to one another.

會議緣起
在當代藝術教育的場域中，教學、創作與研究不再沿著單一線性路徑前進，而是由無數條軌跡彼此牽引、纏繞與分岔的動態網絡。課室中的課程設計、偏鄉學校與在地社區的合作計畫、博物館與文化機構的教育推廣、結合輔導與醫療與公共衛生的藝術介入，或是串連科技、設計、數位人文等領域的跨域實驗，皆可視為構成藝術教育DNA的一部分。
藝術教育在不同脈絡中被書寫、改寫與再連結，形塑出多元族群與世代相互牽動的發展路徑。

Interweaving and Co-Creation: Diverse pathways of Arts Education International
International Conference
Building upon the Arts Education Forums and Conferences continuously organised by the MA Programme in Arts Education at the Department of Fine Arts, National Changhua University of Education (NCUE) since 2021, the Interweaving and Co-constructing: Diverse pathways of Arts Education International Conference will be further expanded in 2026 to foster cross-institutional, cross-disciplinary, and international collaboration. The conference is jointly organised by the MA Programme in Arts Education, Department of Fine Arts, National Changhua University of Education, and the BA Programme in Digital Humanities and Cultural & Creative Industries together with the Graduate Institute of Library and Information Studies at National Chung Hsing University. It is supported by collaborative partners including the InSEA Asian Regional Committee, the UK-based Something Useful Project (SUP), and relevant professional associations and NGOs.
This conference aims to establish a platform for dialogue between domestic and international scholars and practitioners in arts education, exploring the directions and practices of arts education within diverse contemporary social contexts. Through interdisciplinary dialogue and the sharing of research outcomes, the conference seeks to deepen educators’ understanding of key issues such as multiculturalism, place-based practice, interdisciplinary integration, and art as social action. In addition, the conference provides master’s and doctoral students in arts education and related fields with opportunities to present and exchange research and practice, with the aim of fostering critical engagement and enhancing academic literacy and research capacity.
Taking interweaving and trajectories as its core conceptual metaphors, the conference examines how schools and communities, education and professional practice, and art and other disciplinary fields intersect and evolve across time and space—forming arts education genealogies that can be read, discussed, and re-imagined.
Starting from Taiwan, the conference brings together educators, researchers, artists, community practitioners, and cross-disciplinary professionals from across Asia and the wider global context to share pedagogical practices, research findings, community-based projects, and collaborative initiatives. The conference also responds to the core values of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly those relating to quality education, equity, and partnerships. In the face of rapidly changing social and technological conditions, the conference seeks to collectively re-construct the “genome” of arts education and co-create diverse trajectories oriented towards the future.
2026 國際藝術教育學會亞洲區國際研討會「交織與共構：藝術教育的多元軌跡」，承接國立彰化師範大學藝術教育碩士班自 2021 年起持續舉辦藝術教育論壇與研討會的基礎，於 2026 年進一步擴展，促進跨校、跨領域與國際合作。由國立彰化師範大學美術學系藝術教育碩士班與國立中興大學數位人文與文創產業學士學位學程暨圖書資訊學研究所共同主辦，並串聯 InSEA 亞洲區委員會、英國 Something Useful Project (SUP) 及相關專業學會與 NGO 等合作夥伴。
本研討會旨在建立國內外藝術教育學術與實踐者的交流平台，探討藝術教育在當代社會多元脈絡下的發展方向與教育實踐。藉由跨領域對話與研究成果分享，深化教育者對「多元文化」、「地方實踐」、「跨域融合」、「藝術作為社會行動」等議題的理解。此外，本研討會提供藝術教育相關領域碩、博士生交流研究成果與實踐的機會，期能激盪並提升學術素養與研究能力。 以「交織」與「軌跡」為核心意象，關注學校與社區、教育與實務現場、藝術與其他專業領域之間如何在時間與空間中流變與勾連，形成可被閱讀、對話與再創造的藝術教育譜系。
我們以臺灣為起點，邀集亞洲與全球的教育者、研究者、藝術家、社區行動者與跨領域實務工作者，分享教學實作、研究成果、社區計畫與跨域合作，並回應聯合國永續發展目標（SDGs）所強調的教育品質、公平與夥伴關係等核心精神。期盼在持續變動的社會與科技環境中，共同重構藝術教育的「基因組」，共構指向未來的多元軌跡。
Core Vision
The Arts Education Forum at National Changhua University of Education is guided by the principles of “Connect, Nurture, Respond Locally.” Organised by the Master’s Programme in Arts Education, the conference injects professional momentum and international perspectives into local arts education through sharing sessions, discussions, and workshops. It also serves as a sustained platform connecting students, teachers, and international art educators for professional exchange.
Key Features
The forum is distinguished not only by its invitation of domestic and international arts education experts but also by its local focus and sustainable planning. Each year, it integrates current issues from Taiwanese educational contexts, creating a dialogue between international perspectives and local realities.
Additionally, the forum provides Master’s students with practical training through preparation and implementation, cultivating skills in curating, project management, and international collaboration. This approach develops a new generation of educators who combine research expertise, teaching competence, and cross-cultural communication abilities.Additionally, the forum provides Master’s students with practical training through preparation and implementation, cultivating skills in curating, project management, and international collaboration.

Art Education Conferences 2021–2025: Trajectories of Growth and Practice-Based Outcomes
Between 2021 and 2025, the MA Programme in Art Education at National Changhua University of Education has developed a systematically planned series of Art Education Conferences. Beginning with in-house postgraduate research presentations and fully online conferences, the initiative has gradually evolved into a recognised academic platform incorporating open calls for papers and peer-review mechanisms. Over time, it has further expanded to include international participation and open-access publication models.
The design of conference themes and their modes of implementation have not only responded closely to the University’s teaching and research contexts, but have also contributed to the cultivation of a cohort of emerging researchers equipped with strong organisational capacity, a critical engagement with educational practice, and an interdisciplinary outlook. These accumulated experiences and outcomes in researcher development form a crucial foundation and source of momentum for the proposing team in the planning and delivery of subsequent projects.
2025｜2025 Art Education Conference: New Horizons in Art Education · Interdisciplinary Integration
The 2025 Art Education Conference: New Horizons in Art Education · Interdisciplinary Integration was organised in collaboration with the UK-based Something Useful Project (SUP). The conference focused on the sharing and critical reflection of outcomes from the NCUE x SUP 2025 Artist-in-Residence Programme. Through online lectures and live exchanges with art education practitioners based in the United States, the conference explored forward-looking topics such as the application of artificial intelligence in art education. The event also incorporated postgraduate research paper presentations and the compilation of a conference handbook. The overall quality of the conference has consistently received strong recognition and positive feedback from participating scholars and audiences.
2024｜Art Education Conference: Multiple Perspectives and Postgraduate Research Development
The 2024 Art Education Conference: New Blueprints from Multiple Perspectives was organised with a structure that included pre-conference lectures and workshops to establish the thematic framework, followed by keynote talks and academic paper presentations on the main conference day. Presenters included postgraduate students from the Department of Fine Arts (including the Studio Practice stream). Several professors teaching in the United States expressed high praise for the quality of the students’ research papers, demonstrating that the conference has become an important platform for nurturing emerging researchers and supporting reflective engagement with creative practice—a pattern consistently observed in previous years.
2023｜International Conference and Proceedings: Expanding Interdisciplinary and Global Impact
The Art × Education: Interdisciplinary Connections and Social Practice International Conference was organised to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Department of Fine Arts at National Changhua University of Education. Scholars and practitioners from South Korea, Germany, the United States, and Taiwan were invited to present and respond to papers, while an open call for submissions further expanded international and interdisciplinary dialogue. The conference was co-organised in collaboration with the Taiwan Association for Cultural Policy Studies and Da-Mei International Cultural and Creative Co., Ltd.
Following the conference, peer-reviewed proceedings were compiled and assigned an ISBN. In 2024, the publication was made openly accessible through digital release, reinforcing principles of knowledge sharing and supporting the long-term preservation and circulation of academic outputs.
2022｜Visual Art Education Conference: Establishing an Open Call and Review Mechanism
The 2022 Visual Art Education Conference marked the first implementation of an open call for papers alongside an abstract review process, ensuring academic rigour and thematic diversity. A formal conference handbook was produced, systematically presenting the programme, abstracts, and presenter information, contributing to the gradual establishment of the conference’s professional standards and recognisable identity.
2021｜Visual Art Conference: The Starting Point of Online Academic Exchange
The 2021 Visual Art Conference featured postgraduate research paper presentations alongside invited keynote lectures and was conducted entirely online in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This format ensured continuity of academic exchange during a period of disruption while enabling the organising team to accumulate practical experience in online conferencing and remote interaction. These experiences laid an important foundation for subsequent international participation and hybrid-format events.
