A teacher at Chulalongkorn University Demonstration Elementary School has created “History of Art – The Journey”, an innovative educational media for art history education dedicated to elementary school students who can practice their reading, listening, hands-on and play skills while fully enjoying the world of art.
“Because art is not just painting,” said Ajarn Supinya Somta from Chulalongkorn University Demonstration School, Elementary Division, she, therefore, developed an innovative learning set, “History of Art – the Journey” for students to learn about Western art history on their own through games, and other fun activities. Recently, it received an outstanding innovation award from Thailand Research Expo 2021.
The origin of innovative learning materials for art history for elementary school students
Ajarn Supinya related the experience from the art classroom that sparked this outstanding learning innovation concept saying that “when we gave examples of certain artists’ work for them to copy and study the artists’ techniques, students would be interested about the origins of the art and artists. So, we experimented with offering an elective class about a brief history of art through a lecture. We found that the children were interested in learning more about art, so we later developed a learning kit that is more activities-based.” thailand university ranking
