Dr. Chalmers' research interests focus on
the socio-cultural foundations of art education. Recent
projects have included examining art education; a biography
of 19th century art educator: Walter Smith; and a SSHRC funded
project examining art education in a 19th century boys' school,
a convent, and a mechanics institute. Current work studies:
the implementation of multicultural and anti-racist arts education
programs and a new teacher education cohort focusing on diversity.
Dr. Chalmers has interests in international
art education, and served a 7-year term as Chief Examiner
in Art/Design for the International Baccalaureate Organization.
He has also served as a vice-president of the International
Society for Education through Art, and is past-editor of Studies
in Art Education.
Dr. Chalmers was recently designated a "Distinguished
University Scholar." He is a former holder of the David
