This book examines the role of the visual and performing arts in higher education and argues for the importance of socially engaged transdisciplinary practices, not just to the college curriculum but also to building an informed and engaged citizenry. The first chapter defines and offers an outline for conducting transdisciplinary research. Chapters two through five present examples of transdisciplinary projects facilitated in Central Florida between 2017 and 2022. Topics and methodological frameworks include ecocriticism and climate change, migration, poverty, and displacement, ageing and disability, and systemic racism and mass incarceration. Each chapter includes descriptions of the projects and outlines how they integrated the essential learning outcomes articulated by the American Association of Colleges and Universities in the Liberal Education and America’s Promise report. A concluding chapter offers reflections on the value of transdisciplinary collaborative work and poses questions for further discussions on the role of the arts in higher education. The book is designed for graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, and non-academics interested in engaging in transdisciplinary projects to address complex societal issues. Julia Listengarten, Pegasus Professor of Theatre and Artistic Director of the School of Performing Arts, University of Central Florida, USA Keri Watson, Associate Professor of Art History and Director of the Florida Prison Education Project, University of Central Florida, USA.

“This wide-ranging and masterful book…is necessary and urgent reading not only for those people in theatre arts and STEM fields in a liberal arts context, but indeed for everyone with an interest and an investment in the future of STEM, Arts, and Humanities tertiary education worldwide.” —Joshua Abrams, Deputy Director, The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts and Past President, Association for Theatre in Higher Education “Kindelan offers a call to action and practical roadmap for educators interested in forging connections between STEM and theater arts fields. The book’s compelling firsthand narratives are icing on the cake, offering implementation examples and testaments to the many ways that disciplinary boundary crossing inspires and empowers both students and teachers.” —Robert Martello, Professor, Olin College of Engineering, USA “Integrative interdisciplinary learning has been a goal of higher education but is complex to understand and challenging to implement. Kindelan offers a comprehensive and highly readable overview that will guide educators as they reflect on these issues and plan and assess reform efforts taking place on individual campuses.” —Nancy Budwig, Professor, Clark University, USA This book responds to challenging questions about holistic curricular realignment, especially how a more porous approach to higher education reduces the impact of a “siloed” curriculum, lessens the tendency toward the fragmentation of knowledge, allows for the development of cross-disciplinary explorations, and promotes new approaches to knowledge and creativity through interdisciplinary integrative learning. In doing so, Kindelan advances discussions about integrative interdisciplinary education between STEM and the fields of performance and performance technologies that have been either overlooked or underdeveloped. Nancy Kindelan is Professor Emerita of Theatre at Northeastern University, Boston, USA, where she directed plays and taught numerous interdisciplinary courses, honors courses, script analysis and performance classes. She is the founding editor of the Palgrave Macmillan book series The Arts in Higher Education.

This book brings together discussions about Australian arts policy and funding, outcomes of arts engagement in terms of social inclusion, well-being and education. It presents exemplars of creative programs or case studies that build capacity and lasting impact for communities in urban and regional Australia. This book describes the impact of the arts using narrative case studies. Through this, it develops conceptual understanding and frameworks that can be used to dynamically assess the value and impact of arts engagement across the three types of cultural value: intrinsic value, instrumental value and institutional value. It focuses on how arts engagement creates, supports and extends factors such as well-being, social inclusion and educational achievement. This book provides an innovative examination of the evidence from Australian projects depicting the impact of the arts on a range of indicators and sectors.
