NATURE AND DEFINITION

Refereed scientific journal, published every six months. Its thematic coverage covers the areas of art research and pedagogy, without restriction of any manifestation. Its objective is to socialize scientific and didactic productions in these two areas of knowledge, from not only disciplinary, but also inter-, multi- and transdisciplinary visions of art in the complex world of culture, society and education of the 21st century. It publishes in the formats of scientific article, research-creation article, didactic planning article and didactic foundation article for the handling of original visual/sound/audiovisual productions in class, for which purpose it has its own channel on YouTube. Their articles are submitted to double-blind arbitration by specialized academic peers; and they address a broad community of professionals in the world of art and educational practice; especially from the Spanish-speaking community, for sharing contexts and facing related sociocultural problems.
