Abstract/Notes: This paper suggests a post-modern curriculum reform in art education by examining elements of math and art that are congruent. The paper does not suggest that one discipline or the other is more significant. Three curricular domains are considered: the ideal, the instructional, and the operational by reviewing a range of materials from those generated by philosophers such as Edmund Husserl to those created by educational theorists. A shared web of meaning (Doll, 1993) emerges from the consideration of historic documents and events in both disciplines. Suggested ways to begin to restructure and coordinate math and art curricula include: inspection of the content areas for congruent elements; examination of older curricular models for related theory and materials; and review of the developmental bases for creating operational curricula in both disciplines. Brigham (1989), D'Amico and Ostrander (1940), Hurwitz and Day (1991), and a curriculum by Ware and Hooe (1907) are examined for the math and art coordination. Bruner, Lowenfeld, Piaget, and other developmental theorists' writings about learning in art and geometry are explored. A selection of curricula are inspected for math and art relations. The integration of math and art activities in art classes shows potential for complementary learning in both disciplines.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter traces the historical trajectory of the discipline of education in India with a special focus on one of the foundations of education, i.e., psychology. It maps the emergence and shifts in the imagination, discourses, and practices of psychology as a foundation to understand how the contours of education, as a discipline, was being fashioned at various historical junctures in India in interactions with and influence on global discourses. The chapter uses various annual, quinquennial, commission, and committee report, syllabi and examination papers, research trends to trace and reconstruct the beginnings, continuities, and disjuncture at various points and across several sites. It draws attention to the interlinkages between the child study movement and education both globally and in India. It critically examines the deployment of categories/frameworks of deficit, ‘deprivation’ and developmentalism in the syllabus and researches to construct the ‘child’, to coalesce anxiety around the adjustment of the adolescent, and blame/mobilise the family in the projects to achieve and contribute to ‘social control’ and ‘discipline’. The chapter argues that psychology, with its paraphernalia of concepts and tools to measure and classify the children has brought more harm to education than contribute to removing the conditions that produce and reproduce ‘deficits’.
