Education in the arts is more important than ever. In the global economy, creativity is essential. Today's workers need more than just skills and knowledge to be productive and innovative participants in the workforce. Creative experiences are part of the daily work life of engineers, business managers, and hundreds of other professionals. To succeed today, America's children will need to be inventive, resourceful, and imaginative. The best way to foster that creativity is through arts education. This book explores the link between arts education and achievement with a focus on its decline and need for reinvestment.
