Abstract EN
Improving the human condition requires us first to understand and to address the issues that impact each of us.
Because of our perceived differences, conflicts are inevitable, they are a part of our lives, but it is incumbent on all of us to do our part to ameliorate them.
Whether they know it or not, the above students are developing the knowledge and skills to ameliorate problems that could cause conflicts by finding their voice, making contributions to society, and learning to effectively communicate through the fast-moving technology platforms.
Using the United States as an example of how unresolved conflicts can mushroom and pose existential threats to the advancement of the human condition is intended to suggest that if it is happening here in the US, it can and is happening all over the world where there are conflicts between races, genders, religious persuasions, individuals, groups, communities, and countries –China, Russia, Syria, etc.
When given opportunities, each person will encounter issues affecting them, challenges they want to overcome, problems they want to solve and education through the arts can provide students these opportunities.
Improving the human condition gives us hope for a better future and hope for a better future is dependent on how well educators do their jobs preparing students to be good citizens of the global community.
