Abstract	The consequence of narratives becoming stagnant or controlled is that they become a Master Narrative. The Master Narrative is an "ideological script that is being imposed by the people in authority on everybody else: The Master Fiction... history" (Moyers, 1990, para. 4). Master Narratives use myths and ideologies to sustain a sanitized version of history. "Others" may not enter it, as their voice puts the narrative at risk of being contaminated. A Master Narrative "shapes and defines historical significance". In art education, some histories of the field perpetuate a Master Narrative that is rarely rejected or disrupted. In many tellings of the History of Art Education, rarely are there entry points for "Others" to explore ideas that differ from the primary storyteller's. Teaching students to view the prescribed Master Narrative of art pedagogical practices with a skeptical eye allows them to dismantle the traditional textbook lessons and to reinterpret art history in a more complex and substantial way.
