SCHMIDT, Patrick. Educating musically in difference: the challenges the arts place upon education. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2014, vol.39, n.1, pp.67-85. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v39i1.29514.

The aim of this article is to create a link between critical attributes to meaningful educational change and the kind of learning and thinking that is facilitated by artistic endeavors. The goal is not to simply advocate for the Arts, but rather to present a doorway to an educational practice that can be used in educational thought in general. The article starts from David McCarthy's (2000) proposition that "we must think possibility within constraint; that is the condition of our time" (p. 150), arguing that the kinds of thought experiences that individuals 'doing art' participate in, can serve as a model for educational thinking, particularly given the complexity, volatility and speed realities of a 21st century education.
