Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺中教育大學 === 美勞教育學系碩士班 === 94 === Art education plays an important role on multicultural education because it uses arts as media to facilitate aesthetics and make connection between daily life and culture. Community-based art education is a specific type of art education which emphasizes on both viewing community as education audience and using community art resources as education materials. The objective of community-based art education is not only for community (as aesthetics) but also for culture awareness and life quality improvement. How to effectively perform community-based art education becomes an important issue. This study establishes a theoretical community-based art education model to reveal the nature and contents of community-based art education in Taiwan and verify if the community-based art education in Taiwan satisfies the multicultural criteria of equity and democracy.
This study firstly uses philosophy research method to come out a temporary community-based art education model by comprehensive literature review. Secondly, the study conducts a multiple cases study for each type of community-based art education, namely school-based, community-based, and cooperated. Data are collected and analyzed by grounded theory approach. Based on the results, the temporary model is improved and modified to a specific community-based art education model for Taiwan.
Based on the constructed model, we conclude that:
(1) The nature of community-based art education is an interactive learning mediated by community art.
(2) The implementation of community-based art education should cover the critical community issues, and accordingly design art related courses.
(3) The model of community-based art education in Taiwan includes the factors of model include motivation, resource integration, curriculum planning, learning processes, learning results, community performance and the inter-relationships of these factors.
(4) The objective of community-based art education in Taiwan includes both levels of art and community. At art level, the objectives are art skill, meaning interpretation, critical reflection and creation. At the community level, the objectives include cultural identity, community aesthetics, and improved life quality. Thus, we can conclude that community-based art education in Taiwan is complied with the trend of multicultural education.
(5) The motivation, resources used, courses contents, teaching methods and performances are different for each type of community-based art education.
Based on the conclusion above, some helpful suggestions concerning the planning, execution and implementation of community-based art education are also provided.
