嚴劍萍博士
講師 I
Yim Kim-ping received her Ph.D. in Art Education from The Ohio State University (OSU), and her dissertation entitled “Humanitarian Visual Culture Curriculum: An Action Research Study” was nominated for the OSU’s Council of Graduate Schools Distinguished Dissertation Award in Humanities/Fine Arts in 2013. This research study is one of the first to create a humanitarian space in/through art education by addressing the ethics of looking in relation to the visuality of war, violence and peace, with a particular focus on war photography. A key implication is to bring social justice art education into sharp focus. She obtained OSU’s Mary Lou Kuhn Scholarship in 2009 and 2011. She served as a committee member of UNESCO Arts in Education Observatory for Research in Local Cultures & Creativity in Education (RLCCE) (2013-2014) and as a honorary consultant for the Hong Kong Association of Art Therapists (HKAAT) (2013-2014; 2016-2017). She is a member of the National Art Education Association (NAEA) and of the International Society for Education through Art (InSEA).
