Creative Expressions: The Arts & Craft Resource Center

 

At the Royal Institute of Management and Advanced Studies (RIMAS), an NCTE-approved college for both B.Ed. and D.Ed. programs, we believe that art and craft are fundamental to holistic education. Our dedicated Arts & Craft Resource Center is a vibrant hub where creativity flourishes, providing our future educators with the skills and inspiration to foster artistic expression in their own classrooms.

 

Why Arts & Craft Matters in Teacher Education

 

For both Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) and Diploma in Elementary Education (D.Ed.) students, understanding and practicing various art forms is not just a hobby; it's a crucial pedagogical skill.

• Holistic Child Development: Art and craft activities are vital for developing fine motor skills, cognitive abilities, creativity, and emotional expression in children.

• Effective Teaching Aids: Teachers learn to create engaging and low-cost teaching aids, charts, models, and puppets that make learning interactive and fun across all subjects.

• Inclusive Education: Artistic expression provides an inclusive medium for all learners, including those with diverse learning styles and needs, to participate and achieve.

• Stress Reduction & Mindfulness: Engaging in creative activities offers a therapeutic outlet, promoting well-being and a positive learning environment.
