A Study On The Effectiveness Of Art Teaching Materials In Rural Primary Schools

Fine arts textbooks are the indispensable and important constituent part in school art education. Although they are applied by each school, many factors such as school’s educational resources and use ratio of textbooks by teachers and family environments of students make fine arts textbooks not used effectively. Based on urgent demands of new course reform and personal needs of students, the research on how to make fine arts textbooks used effectively in rural primary schools becomes more and more important.This research focuses on teaching practice research of this school. As a rural primary school, Zhenggong experimental school has many stay-at-home children and students here have relatively bad family environments and the school’s educational resources are relatively deficient and applying textbooks in teaching activities here is difficult to make people satisfy. This topic makes a survey on fine arts textbooks applied in rural primary schools and takes whether the textbooks Fine Arts volumn1-4 that are used by local junior grades and published by Hunan press are used effectively for example. This thesis divides into three parts. The first one is introduction, which aims at introducing the thesis’ s research background, research values and current research trends. The second part is survey and analysis on service conditions of fine arts textbooks in Zhenggong experimental school. The third part is the key part of the thesis, which explores usage strategies of fine arts textbooks in Zhenggong experimental school. The third part is usage strategies of fine arts textbooks in Zhenggong experimental school, which is the key part of the thesis. This part analyzes how to take advantage of resources on campus and outside campus to achieve the effective use of fine arts textbooks in Zhenggong experimental school based on existing conditions in detail. This part includes four contents that are“carrying on blocking teaching”, “adopting theme-based teaching”, “applying comparison teaching” and “opening up network classrooms”. These four strategies closely link with each other and they are inseparable. As an art teacher who works in the front line, the author adds a large amount of teaching cases in every teaching strategy and each case is based on the author’s teaching practice and experience and each case is the author’s down-to-earth and cogitative teaching exploration.Concretely speaking, firstly, in the strategy of “carrying on blocking teaching”, the author makes the blocking arrangement of the course in accordance with fourareas:model·performance areas, design·application area, appreciation·comment area and comprehensive · exploration area. Secondly, in the strategy of “adopting theme-based teaching”, the author mainly researches based on methods and process of theme-based teaching and discusses the design of courses under the same theme.In this teaching method, the author stresses teaching of living. Train students’ “consciousness of problems” and the ability of solving practical problems from childhood so that lay the foundation for improving students’ comprehensive attainment. The third strategy is “applying comparison teaching”, which mainly adopts lateral comparative method, longitudinal comparative method and vertical and horizontal comparative method to teach. That is, on the basis of blocking teaching and theme-based teaching, make the comparative and deep exploration on teaching contents, which is a teaching method that is used widely and proved to be feasible in current educational circles. The fourth strategy is opening up network classrooms.Age of big data, popularity of network and information-based teaching have become the inevitable facts for teachers. And students have great interest in network, which makes teachers cannot eliminate the influence and effects brought by the medium and interest on teaching. How to positively and effectively use network to assist textbooks and make the effective teaching becomes a kind of reflection of teachers’ professionalization. Hereto, this thesis mainly researches from these four aspects:theoretical background of opening up network classrooms, application methods for primary schools, teaching exploration and experience. And guarantee effects and long-term efficiency of network classrooms by strategies such as microlecture,opening up network classrooms, using big data to supervise, instruct and assist students’ learning. In the teaching cases of the fourth part, the author introduces teaching practice of microlecture to teaching process, which embodies the innovation point and the characteristic of this thesis.The research on this topic is only a primary exploration,and it still exists many problems in specific teaching implementation process. In later teaching practice, the author will improve self professionalization more comprehensively and deeper, and constantly promote level of educational theories and ability of teaching practice by strategies such as “academic community” and teachers’ professionalization training to build more perfect vision of art education in rural primary schools.
