Project no. 21042 · Status: Kapanmış · 2020
Summary
<p>Art education is an education that paves the way for the individual to express himself in the best way by helping him reveal his creative powers. Thanks to art history education, which is an important part of art education, the student learns the ways and stories of the people who lived before him/her in expressing themselves; designs the way they create their own story and also strengthens intercultural communication and communication.</p><p>This project plans to measure the contribution of art history education to secondary school students' attitudes towards art. 6th grade students at Karabağlar Fevzi Çakmak Secondary School were given art history education in elective art classes regularly for 7 weeks. The purpose of this training module, given by art history faculty members, is to measure whether secondary school students' attitudes towards art have changed by ensuring that they have knowledge about art history, works of art and artists, as well as learning to read paintings or works and thus strengthening their visual memory. Data were obtained through the scale applied to the students at the beginning and end of the 7-week art history education and through interviews with the students and the teacher at the end of the education. With this data collected, it was analyzed whether students' interest and perspective on art changed positively. </p>
