美術教育是兒童心智成長重要的一環可以讓兒童發展已具有的潛能促進兒童人格發展的健全。因此美術教育在兒童的基礎教育具有相當的重要性。 而現行於九年一貫藝術與人文領域的視覺藝術課程,在實際教學的過程中會因為制度與實際狀況的配置,產生一些教師與學生的問題,第一、傳統教學時教師示範的限制。第二、傳統教學媒體的適切性。第三、學生學習作品互相討論與觀摩的問題。 本研究擬設計一數位教室環境(Digital Classroom Environment, DCE),整合平板電腦(Tablet PC )、無線網路、軟體系統與教學活動設計提供學習輔助,改善在傳統視覺藝術課程教學時所遭遇的困難,提升學習成效。 本研究以一名美術教師與五名國小五年級學生為實驗對象,在美術課程中以數位教室環境結合本研究系統,並且以素描課程作為實驗課程內容;在接受度方面,教師與學生都對數位教室在美術教育的價值表示肯定。
Art education plays an important role in the mental development of children. It could not only make children develop the potential they already have but also help the integrity of their personality development. Hence, art education is significantly involved in the basic education of children. However, the visual arts class in the field of arts and humanities in the strategy of nine-year joint curriculum brings about some problems between teachers and students because of the system and of the real situation: the confinement of a teacher who demonstrates to students how to do something in a traditionally teaching way, the property of traditionally teaching media, and the problems for students to discuss, inspect, and then learn from other students’ works among themselves. In this study, I design a Digital Classroom Environment (DCE) where Table PC, wireless lanes, a software system, and the arrangement of course contents are integrated in order to offer learning assistance to teachers and students. In addition, this Digital Classroom Environment (DCE) could lessen the difficulties which are faced by a teacher when he or she is teaching in a visual arts class. Moreover, it could make students learn more effectively. One teacher and five students in the grade five of an elementary school are taken as subjects in this study. Then I put the system of my study into practice in the Digital Classroom Environment (DCE) in the art curriculum. Moreover, the content of this experimental class is sketching. As for in the aspect of the response of teachers and students, they confirm the value of the Digital Classroom Environment (DCE) in art education.
