Incidence of arts education on cognitive development. Case study: Eduardo Laredo Institute
Main Article Content
Abstract
Recommendations for education in the 21st century focus on the need to incorporate the arts into school education programs as a way to strengthen interculturality and citizenship. There are also experimental trends that link the arts with intellectual and cognitive development. An empirical study on the subject is presented here, showing the first evaluation results of the incidence of the arts on cognitive development, in an educational institution that combines them with the official programs of formal education, in a political and administrative context of education, which historically has not formally recognized arts education for children and adolescents. The case study of the experience of the "Eduardo Laredo" Institute of Cochabamba - Bolivia, allows us to reaffirm the positive impact of incorporating the arts in regular education, as an element of intellectual/cognitive development and social being.
