The aims of this research were to explore the relationships between students’ artistic conceptual knowledge and the aesthetic capability of analyzing the forms in visual art appreciation based on the students’ different backgrounds.
Two survey questionnaires were developed in this research based on the review of literature. The “Artistic Conceptual Knowledge” and “Aesthetic Capability of Analyzing the Forms in Visual Art Appreciation” questionnaires were used as the main tools. By using purposive sampling” method, six elementary schools within Tao-yuan County were chosed and two classes were randomly picked from the 5th and 6th grade respectively as the sample from those six schools. The total number of the sample was 355 students. SPSS12.0 was used as statisitical tool to analyize the data by running the descriptive statistic, variable analysis, T-test, Scheffe and other methods to manage and analyze the data. Finding and conclusions from this research was presented as follow:
