An Advocacy Report

While working on a psychology paper today I stumbled across a very good report that may assist us in advocating art education. It reports the positive correlation between learning the arts and cognition. It is great fuel for the argument that art education is essential for human development. The report addresses how learning the arts influences cognition. It explains the influences of each type of art on the brain but focuses a bit more on music education than the rest. It is definitely worth a look!

This is the pdf: Learning, Arts and the Brain
