METHODS AND APPROACHES OF

TEACHING ARTS EDUCATION
An approach is a way of looking at teaching and learning. It
gives rise to methods, the way of teaching something which
use classroom activities or techniques to help learners learn.

EDUCATION

 UNDERSTANDING CHILD ART

 VISUAL ART
 ISSUES-BASED ART EDUCATION
 UNDERSTANDING CHILD ART

Child art is a term created by Franz Cižek in the

1890s. It is the drawings, paintings, or other artistic
works created by children. The art of each child
reflects their level of self-awareness and the degree
to which they are integrated with their
environment.
 VISUAL ART

Visual art is a fundamental component of the

human experience reflecting the world and the
time in which we live. Art can help us understand
our history, our culture, our lives, and the
experience of others in a manner that cannot be
achieved through other means.
 ISSUES-BASED ART EDUCATION

Issues-based art education

encourages students to express their
perspectives on different social issues
through art making. It focuses on racial
issues with middle school students
through contemporary artwork discussion
and hands-on poster making.
WHAT IS A TEACHING
METHOD?
A teaching method comprises the principles and
methods used by teaching to enable by teaching
to enable students’ learning.

 INTRODUCTION
The term teaching method refers to the general
principles, pedagogy and management strategies used
for classroom instruction.

Whilst, teachers are the main authority figure in a

teacher-centered instruction model.

 DIRECT
INSTRUCTION
 Direct instruction is the
general term that refers to the
traditional teaching strategy
that relies on explicit
teaching through lectures and
teacher-led demonstrations.
 FLIPPED
CLASSROOM

 a blended learning model in

which traditional ideas about
classroom activities and
homework are reversed, or
"flipped."
 KINESTHETIC
LEARNING
 known as tactile learning“ or
"hands-on learning",
kinesthetic learning is based
on the idea of multiple
intelligences, requiring
students to do, make, or
create.
 DIFFERENTIATED
LEARNING

 Differentiated instruction is
the teaching practice of
tailoring instruction to meet
individual student needs.
INQUIRY – BASED
LEARNING
INQUIRE

 ask for information from

someone.
 What is Inquiry-Based Learning?
“A teaching method that combines the
curiosity of students and the scientific method
to enhance the development of critical
thinking skills.”
 What is Inquiry-Based Learning?
Promotes engagement, curiosity, and
experimentation rather than being ‘instructed to,’.
Students are empowered to explore subjects by
asking questions and finding or creating solutions.
EXPEDITIONARY
LEARNING
 What is Expeditionary Learning?
• is an educational system that differs from
traditional systems in three main ways:
 students learn by conducting "learning
expeditions" rather than by sitting in a
classroom being taught one subject at
a time.
 developing the character as well as the
intellect of students.

 changes not only how students learn

but also a school's culture.
“The quality of a school lies in its culture."
- The Expeditionary Learning system holds, as
Massachusetts educator Ron Berger says in A
Culture of Quality: A Reflection on Practice (from
the Annenberg Institute for School Reform's
Occasional Paper Series, Number 1, September
1996, Brown University)
 What is Expeditionary Learning?
• Expeditionary Learning affects standards,
curriculum, pedagogy, assessment, and
school organization.
 WHAT IS A TYPICAL
SCHOOL DAY LIKE?
• Gone are the ringing bells, rows of desks,
and fill-in-the blank worksheets. For all or
most of the day, students and teachers are
engaged in challenging learning
expeditions.
 WHAT IS A TYPICAL
SCHOOL DAY LIKE?
• Their explorations may take them outside
the school building to do scientific research
in natural areas, conduct interviews in local
businesses, or carry out a range of other
fieldwork assignments.
PERSONALIZED
LEARNING
 What is a Personalized Learning?
• Personalized learning is an educational approach
that aims to customize learning for each
student’s strengths, needs, skills, and interests.
Each student gets a learning plan that’s based on
what they know and how they learn best.
 What is a Personalized Learning?
• is the customization and adaptation of
educational methods and techniques so that the
learning process is better suited for each
individual learner, with their own unique learning
style, background, needs, and previous
experiences.
Examples of personalized learning:
• One-on-one Tutoring

• Mentoring

• Online course providers

• Search engines

• Corporate training example

GAME - BASED
LEARNING
 What is a Game-Based Learning?
• is where game characteristics and principles are
embedded within learning activities. Here,
learning activities promote student engagement
and motivation to learn.
 What is a Game-Based Learning?
• is also an active learning technique where games
are used to enhance student learning. Here, the
learning comes from playing the game and
promotes critical thinking and problem-solving
skills.
APPROACHES TO
ARTS ACTIVITIES
Erika May Vidal (BEEd 2A)
What is Art Activities?
 Creative arts are activities that actively
engage children's imagination through
art, dance, dramatic play or theater,
puppetry, and music.

 The creative arts engage children

across all domains -cognitive,
language, social, emotional, and
physical.
 Approaches to Arts Activities

 It is important, when teaching art to understand that

there are many different approaches to the making
process.

 Art teacher lean towards a “Teacher-led Approach”,

where they plan every stage of the learning out.
Direct Approach- means just getting
on and doing an art activity.

Active Learning – it is more complex

approach, active learning involves
students “doing things and thinking
about what they are doing”.
Example:
Doing project based on puppets.
 IMPORTANCE OF
ART ACTIVITIES

Arts and creativity cultivates well-being and help

young learners create connections between subjects.
Being creative helps children cope with their feelings
and fears, as well as managing their emotional states.
Not only is creativity good for well-being, it can also
lead to a fulfilling career.
