Creative experimentation with art materials in art classudud

摘要

I have divided the graduation thesis titled Creative Experimentation with Art Materials in Art Class into two parts, namely theoretical and empirical part. ududIn the theoretical part, I have researched the term creativity: what is that, how do we encourage creativity in schools, what are the phases of creative thinking. A special attention was paid to the creativity in the field of art; I have described design fields such as drawing, painting, sculpture, graphic design, and architecture in detail. In the thesis, I have also researched the use of different materials, since child's creativity in the field of art can be strengthen by using them. I have divided the materials into natural and artificial, and presented waste materials, which I have also described. udArt teachers can encourage curiosity and strengthen artistic expression of pupils through experimenting, testing new and different techniques and materials. For this reason, I have presented examples of experiments that can be used to perform art task in art class. ududThe empirical part is based on the questionnaire distributed among art class teachers. The research questions particularly focused on the use of art materials in art class, possible problems or advantages of using the materials, and who in the school system determines the use and purchase of the materials. ududud
