Abstract
Artfulness is an essential but often ignored element in effective teaching and learning. This article uses the art metaphor to reframe teaching as a creative, holistic learning process for both student and teacher. It challenges the traditional view of knowledge as exclusively scientific and objective and develops the idea of an equally important intuitive way of knowing. It also challenges the traditional hierarchical structure of the classroom and suggests that a collaborative web structure is much more appropriate for building a community of learners and a student-centered classroom.
