Art offers opportunities for experiential and functional learning – pedagogical emphases that are central to all language teaching, regardless of the language. Art-based language teaching draws on a range of art forms: music, drama, literature and creative writing, visual arts, crafts, multimedia-based forms of expression and combinations of these. This chapter introduces the opportunities of artbased language teaching and key considerations for its practical implementation.
