A Story of How One Teacher/Researcher/Artist Learned to Use Arts-Based Research

I discovered the usefulness of ABR during my sixth year of teaching art at a public elementary school in the southwestern United States. At this point in my career, my practice resembled a well-oiled machine as I continually adapted to the conditions and expectations of the educational climate. Consistent procedures, time efficiency, clear expectations, and resourceful use of energy and materials were hallmarks of my art classroom environment.
