| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 美術學系 === 102 === The art education is aimed to guide people using their cognition and feeling to see the world from combined perspectives, at the same time expressing the understanding and explanation of everything. On the other hand, art education in Taiwan have been neglected for a long time due to the higher priority to obtain tertiary education. This led to a phenomenon that art teachers are unavailable to perform specifically, at the same time indirectly encouraging the use of Material kit package in art courses. The research mainly probes the use of material kit package in visual art course in elementary school. We record the teaching preparation, skills, activities, the use assistant tools of teachers from different background. In the research, we use participant observation, semi structured interview, focus group, taking 53 students in two third grade classes in Chang-hua. The researcher acts as an observer, not participating in teaching, and records each class’s teaching design, interaction between teachers and students, teaching process and the use of tools in the same subject. After the observation, we have a semi structured interview toward the teachers and focus group to students in order to understand how’s their opinion and reacceptance of the use of material kit package in visual art classes which helps us think twice and make the class better. After qualitative research, we have this result:
1. First, teachers who are in charge of the visual art courses in elementary schools are almost replaced by class tutors. Because of the crush of teachers' training, the resource of teachers isn’t sole anymore which can't really reach the specificity.
2. Second, classes without teachers who graduated with degree of visual art might not have good course structure. Most of the teaching materials are replaced by material kit package which have limited further elaboration of course designs.
3. Third, as what mentioned above, most of the teachers rely on material kit package and do not really prepare the courses wholeheartedly. This leads to the same curriculum
activities every year and also the indifference of teachers towards the atmosphere of art activities.
4. As conclusion, most of the visual art courses in elementary schools are conducted by the class tutors instead of professional art teachers who graduated with bachelor degrees. That leads to the declining of performances in courses preparation, courses designs, and
the innovation of tools. As the result of these, the same curriculum contents limit the students from developing their creativity. All of these make the art education in
elementary schools becomes impracticable.
