The document discusses integrating arts and culture into teaching. It argues that arts and culture are underutilized in education in Mindanao despite their potential to raise educational achievement. Studies show students who receive arts education perform better in other subjects like math and science. The Dana Foundation has conducted extensive research on the relationship between arts education and cognition. Their research found positive connections between activities like music, dance, visual arts and improved skills in areas like math, memory, coordination and literacy. An arts-educated child is said to be well-rounded, insightful, inquisitive and a model citizen. The document provides examples of incorporating arts such as using storytelling techniques to make history engaging for students.
