‘Images and Identity' is a research and curriculum development project, funded under the European Commission’s Comenius scheme, with partners in six EU countries. The project has developed and produced curriculum materials linking citizenship and art education. In 2010 it published on-line training materials that include: schemes of work that integrate art and citizenship learning; suggestions for facilitating lessons in which school children use digital media to represent and explore their personal and group identifications with Europe; and a visual resource of images by artists and schoolchildren that facilitates teaching about citizen identity. A book about this first stage of the project was published in 2013. In this paper the project coordinator will reflect on this initiative in the light of the position statement developed for this symposium. It will focus in particular on combining learning in the school subjects of citizenship, art making and art criticism and using digital media for visual communication.
