Title: Heterogeneous pedagogy: a model for tertiary teaching and learning across arts disciplines
Synopsis:

The paper describes a pedagogical model developed at LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore for use within the local Arts and Arts Education sector. A need was discovered in Singapore for a holistic pedagogical model that could be used to teach practicing artists who spend considerable time teaching in public and private schools, yet maintain their Arts practice. The model addresses multiple art forms simultaneously through practices that are tailored for a heterogeneous educational setting yet encompasses a unified perspective. New knowledge is created with students from a heterogeneous setting when they share creative theories from within their own arts discipline. Responding to the common core of the program from various backgrounds provides an opportunity for collaborative, crossdisciplinary, and interdisciplinary work. This new knowledge is shared knowledge and is created as the students continue to move the boundaries of their scholarly study to include theory and practice from other arts disciplines. Case examples from the program at LASALLE College of the Arts as well examples from the field of arts education in Singapore will be presented to show how both commonalities, as well as differences in pedagogical practice, are used in the model to foster collaboration, cross-arts communication, and to create new methodology within research and practice.
