Research questions:
§ What occurs when a group of urban high school students experience a collaboratively developed language arts based art interpretation curriculum?
§ What pedagogical strategies personally engage high school students in the museum and classroom setting?
§ What can classroom and museum educators learn from the narratives of students’ encounters with museum art?
Data presentation: The qualitative data of my thesis is presented in the form of students' narratives of learning (student writing, discussions, and podcasts). Their adolescent processes of museum art interpretation are analyzed in my discussion section. Conclusions and recommended strategies for engaging teens in exploring their own unique museum interpretation experiences are shared.
