AN ADVENTURE OF USING BLOGS AS A RESEARCH TOOL IN VISUAL ART EDUCATION

The aim of this study is to determine the usefulness of Culturally Responsive Pictorial Module of Nature Tie-Dye Batik Craft for teaching and learning the topic ‘Batik Pelangi’ in Visual Art Education (VAE). The pictorial module was developed using the ADDIE Model that was supported by Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) – Scaffolding by Lev Vygotsky (1978). This study uses the Design Development Research (DDR) approach. The Pictorial Module was evaluated by two expert panels which is one experienced VAE school teacher and one Visual Art senior lecturer at a local university. A purposive sampling consisting of 29 VAE students and one VAE teacher were used in this research to measure their acceptance using the module. Both the responding groups of students and VAE teacher provided positive feedbacks toward learning and teaching using the module. Based on the findings, the Pictorial Module is relevant and appropriate to be implemented at secondary school level for art education in Malaysia.

This paper looks at recent examples of how drawing is advancing into the digital age: in London: the annual symposium on Thinking Through Drawing; in Paris: an exhibition at the Grand Palais, Artistes et Robots; a conference at the Institut d’études avancées on Space-Time Geometries and Movement in the Brain and in the Arts; and, at the Drawing Lab, Cinéma d’Été. These events are contrasted to a recent decline in drawing instruction in pre-professional programs of art, architecture, and design as well as in pre-K12 art education due largely to the digital revolution. In response, I argue for the ongoing importance of learning to draw both in visual art and in general education at all levels in the digital age.
