The publishing material of art history pedagogy is known to have too many facts and students need to digest lots of information. The alternative methods of teaching and learning have become more reliable when technology-based methods have been found to be an effective pedagogical material. This study aims to design and develop an ArtHis Interactive Module for teaching and learning art history in Visual Art Education. For this reason, this study also investigates the impact of its usability in classroom and assesses the learning motivation of Visual Art students simultaneously. In this study, the Design and Developmental Research (DDR) method was used. For the most part, the ArtHis Interactive Module is developed by using ADDIE Model by considering the elements of design, technical, pedagogical, and the content which is appropriate to achieve the objectives stated in Visual Art Education syllabus. Specifically, the development process was guided and supported by Dual Coding Theory and Flow Theory for information processing. For this purpose, the research focused on Form 5 Visual Art students. Microsoft PowerPoint was used to produce the interactive module with the aim of enhancing the students’ motivation in learning Art History. The finding shows that the impact of learning art history using ArtHis Interactive Module has improved students’ conceptual understanding. It is also determined that 93.9 percent students agree that the exercises in the ArtHis Interactive Module help them to gauge their level of understanding and knowledge on the topics in Art History. In conclusion, ArtHis Interactive Module is used for the purpose of improving teaching methods and increasing the motivation of students in Visual Art Education especially Art History topics.

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.

Mastery learning approaches were designed to improve student learning and elevate the level of understanding across a broader swath of students. These approaches operate under the belief that all students are capable of learning if given enough time. Little research has examined the utility or applicability of a mastery learning approach for social sciences outside of research methods courses. This study provides a review of the relevant literature on mastery learning, a discussion of the applicability of this approach to the teaching and learning of social sciences, and a review of the process and results of the conversion of more traditionally organized and taught courses to a mastery learning approach. Overall, our evaluation provides evidence that a mastery learning approach can make a significant impact on student learning.

This study examines the impact of art exhibitions on the teaching, learning, and practice of Art Education in selected Senior High Schools in the Bono Region of Ghana. The study posed two major questions: What is the state of art exhibition practice in the selected schools? What are the emerging roles of art exhibitions in Art Education? The study employed both qualitative and quantitative research designs. The study used a sample size of eighty-one (81) participants from a population of 161 Visual Art students and teachers from three selected schools using the simple random and purposive sampling techniques respectively. On research question one, the study established that the present state of art exhibition practice in the Senior High Schools was constrained due to the uncooperative attitude of school leadership resulting in irregular organization of such events. In relation to research question two, it was found that exhibitions play diverse roles in art education. Among others, art exhibitions serve as lenses through which learning objectives in art education are measured; and that the use of artefacts for exhibitions results in the appreciation of cultural diversity among students; they also harness and develop exhibitors’ research skills and critical thinking. Recommendations for exhibitors, schools, and the Government made include encouraging exhibitors to explore the use of other non-conventional materials in producing art works; setting aside non-academic days such as Saturdays and Sundays for exhibitions; and encouraging art students to inculcate artists’ statement during exhibition of their artworks to enhance their writing skills and self-reflection respectively.

The higher education sector in the United Kingdom finds itself immersed in a data culture that evaluates every aspect of the university life according to a metrical paradigm. Art education, an area with its own teaching and learning characteristics, is particularly incompatible with a model that favours efficiency, productivity and success over all other aspects. In this essay I describe an exhibition, Art Education in the Age of Metrics, which took place in 2017 at the campus gallery of a specialist university located in the town of Canterbury. This was a curatorial project that tried not only to represent the difficulties of art education in the current climate, but that by engaging the university community—particularly students— in the process of organizing the exhibition, tried to actively intervene in the debates on the impact of this neoliberal model in how we teach and learn art today.

Quality and meaningful Visual Art education provides opportunities for learning and holistic development to all children at school. Research projects in this regard highlight the problems that teachers experience in this field. The contribution of higher education in the training of educators to provide for teachers in Visual Art education is important. Curricula of four local and one overseas university for the BEd training in theArts are compared and discussed. The importance of literacy and numeracy at schoollevel is not disregarded, but the fact that visual literacy is an important part of being literate is emphasised. The current shortage of well-trained Visual Art educators is a challenge. Overcoming this challenge will provide all members of future generations in schools with the learning opportunities that are available through quality Visual Arteducation. The impact of several reviews of the South African Educational system and the effect thereof on Visual Art education are discussed.

Essay on interpretations of visual art in societies of the African diaspora. Author relates this to recent shifts in anthropology and art history/criticism toward an increasing combining of art and anthropology and integration of art with social and cultural developments, and the impact of these shifts on Afro-American studies. To exemplify this, she focuses on clothing (among Maroons in the Guianas), quilts, and gallery art. She emphasizes the role of developments in America in these fabrics, apart from just the African origins.

Environmental art education is gaining importance in schools as arts education begins to acquire a more significant role in environmental education. This emerging field of study is an interdisciplinary endeavor that is centered on the different fields of environmental education and visual art education and provides a means of making students aware of environmental issues through environmental art education. It has been suggested that students get into a relationship with nature prior to the request to conserve the environment in order to be nature connected. This abstract focuses on teaching and learning through the arts, a pedagogical way in which students discuss the challenging aspects of environmental issues. The aim of this study is to make students act like protectors of their environment through an eco-art place-based curriculum. This paper’s pedagogies will provide educators with a framework for developing environmental art education lessons and curricula. This experimental study has been planned to gather data from interviews and observation of students and by making the students participate in nature-related activities. The findings show that students prefer to let go of their fascination with formulating better ecological perspectives. On the positive side, a few students went through some frustration during the program and the activities. Students have given positive feedback on the program in positive terms, such as “fun”, “interesting”, and “cool”, to express their experience gained through the class activities.
