Although visual creativity in art affects all variables of the learning and teaching process, no measurement tool has been found in the Turkish literature regarding the level of students’ visual creativity in art. In this study, a measurement tool was developed to measure visual creativity levels of primary school students in art and evidence regarding the construct validity and reliability of the scale was determined. The research was carried out with 381 primary school students in the 1st and 4th grades of primary school. 48.5% (185) of the students are female and 51.5% (196) of them are male. The scale, whose content validity was provided by expert opinions and literature review, was one-dimensional and had high construct validity based on confirmatory and exploratory factor analyzes. In addition, it was found that the Scale of Visual Creativity in Art had correlation with the perceived visual creativity scale and the scale developed had high criterion validity. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis results showed that the scale is structurally one-dimensional and had a high validity. The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of the one-dimensional form of the scale is .95. In addition, results of item-total correlations of the scale were tested and discussed.

Peer Experiences

In China, researchers have translated and validated several scales to measure victimization behavior. The aim of the present study was to validate the Chinese version of the victimization subscale of the Revised Peer Experiences Questionnaire (RPEQ) among primary school students. Primary school students aged between 8 and 13 years old (n = 1048) were asked to complete the Chinese version of the victimization subscale of the RPEQ and related scales. We examined internal consistency and the factor structure using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Depression, peer relationship, and sleep scales were used to measure construct validity. The CFA results suggested that the four-factor model had a good model fit. The results indicated that internal reliability was good (Cronbach’s α = 0.83). Construct validity was mostly supported by scores on the Chinese version of the victimization subscale of the RPEQ that strongly and positively correlated with depression and negatively correlated with peer relationship and sleep quality. The present study indicated that the Chinese version of the victimization subscale of the RPEQ has adequate reliability and validity for measuring bullying problems among Chinese primary school students.

Effectiveness Of Training

Модернизация общего музыкального образования требует постоянного повышения ее качества, обновление содержания и организационных форм, а также является важнейшим фактором интеграции инновационных технологий, направленных на повышение результативности обучения. Интенсивные изменения происходят ныне в музыкально-педагогическом образовании, которое направлено на творческое развитие личности, способной к быстрому реагированию на возможные изменения учебной среды, решению проблемы адаптации молодого человека в социуме. Обоснованность и достоверность полученных научных результатов обеспечивается применением таких методов исследования теоретического и эмпирического уровней: анализ и обобщение философской, искусствоведческой, психолого-педагогической литературы, систематизация, классификация и интерпретация полученных теоретических и экспериментальных данных, изучение педагогического опыта в системе музыкально-педагогического образования. В работе представлены результаты теоретического обобщения и практического решения проблемы формирования творческой активности учащихся начальных классов на уроках музыки, что нашло отражение в обосновании, разработке и экспериментальной проверке поэтапной методики формирования исследуемого феномена путем включения детей в различные формы учебно-музыкальной деятельности. Modernization of general music education requires constant improvement of its quality, updating of the content and organizational forms, and is also an important factor in the integration of innovative technologies aimed at improving the effectiveness of training. Intensive changes are now taking place in music and pedagogical education, which is aimed at the creative development of a person who is able to quickly respond to possible changes in the educational environment, to solve the problem of adaptation of a young person in society. As an integral part of spiritual culture, creative activity is the basis of personal development and is a social reserve for the humanization of society. The validity and reliability of the obtained scientific results is ensured by the use of such methods of research at the theoretical and empirical levels: analysis and generalization of philosophical, art history, psychological and pedagogical literature, systematization, classification and interpretation of the obtained theoretical and experimental data, the study of pedagogical experience in the system of music and pedagogical education. The paper presents the results of the theoretical generalization and practical solution of the problem of the formation of creative activity of primary school students in music lessons, which is reflected in the justification, development and experimental verification of a step-by-step methodology for the formation of the phenomenon under study by including children in various forms of educational and musical activities.

Dance and mathematics are seemingly very distant concepts at first glance. In the theoretical parts of our study we show how strongly mathematics and spatial abilities are interrelated, including the correlation between dance and spatial abilities as well. Consequently a hypothesis derives that dance develops spatial abilities, through which it develops mathematical skills at the same time. Our research focused on first year primary school students. During the one month course we applied creative children dance and tasks of movement from drama pedagogy. Children’s abilities were measured pre- and after the course classes with a test of both mathematical and spatial skills. According to this research, we could show some improvement in mathematical skills as a result of the development, but there is no significant improvement in spatial skills. We attempted to find out about the reasons of the results we found.

Different Levels

The sample on the study of digital socialization included 316 primary school students aged 7 to 9. On the one hand, the results showed the preservation and demonstration of the content and methods of traditional socialization among younger students of all levels of Internet involvement in terms of digital socialization. This fact indicates the integration and combination of digital and traditional socialization. On the other hand, the increase in the levels of Internet involvement contributes to the replacement and transition from traditional socialization to a digital one.
