Designing the Learning Process in Visual Art Classes in Primary School

Year: 2012
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Contemporary theories of art education are founded on constructive learning strategies. In Estonian primary schools, however, the teacher-centred approach prevails; therefore, it is important to modernise the process of learning. These kinds of changes are also encouraged by the new national curriculum. In this context, questions arise as to what should the main changes be and how can they be implemented. The report presents an overview of an action research project which explored this topic, and suggests several models for art learning processes. The study provides principles which help primary school teachers plan the learning process in art classes.
