Study on the Utilization of ICT(Information Communication Technology) for Art Education

작금의 2천년대가 도래하기 전, 이른바 CAI(Computer - Assisted Instruction)라고 하는 컴퓨터 보조 수업이 대두된 것은 1930년대 이후이며, 이 수업이 보편화된 것은 라디오, TV, 컴퓨터 등의 시청각 매체를 통한 수업이 언어만을 위주로 한 단선교육에 비하여 학습효과에 훨씬 도움을 준다는 각종 연구 결과에 따른 것이다. 특히 근․현대적 시청각 매체에서 획기적으로 진보해온 컴퓨터가 학교교육 이외의 가정이나 사회교육과 같이 시공을 초월하여 무수한 정보를 불특정 다수에게 제공할 수 있는 환경에서 비롯된 것이라 할 수 있다. 이로부터 불과 몇 년이 채 되지 않은 현재는 PC일변도에서 벗어난 모바일․디지털 제품의 수요가 급증함에 따라 나노(Nano)기술에 의한 반도체 신(新)성장이라는 급물결의 와중에 놓여 있다.

Utilization of ICT in art education has many implications. Students can experience artistic atmosphere in their daily lives, learn to express creative artistic abilities as well as appreciating art pieces to stir up creative desire. ICT is not only the means of engaging in creative art activities, it is also the source of information in art appreciation. Current research sought to utilize ICT in art education with four specific research points: the need to raise creative talents by utilizing ICT in art education; methods to utilize ICT in art education courses; curriculum in art education and utilization of ICT in art department; successful cases of developing art education materials utilizing ICT, and their appraisal; the prospect of developing art education materials utilizing ICT in art education. Results of the research are as follows. Firstly, goals and contents of art education utilizing ICT should be established, so that students may acquire problem-solving abilities and form systematic knowledge. While the goals and characteristics of art education are to increase creativity, existing curricula of art education are abstract and of a let-alone policy. Utilization of ICT in art education will supplement this, and enhance the effect of art education. Secondly, art education curriculum should realize the potential of each student. To achieve such an aim, relations between the curriculum and art activities and the levels and needs of each student should be analyzed and examined carefully. Thirdly, curriculum of ICT based art education is most effective when human resources and educational environments are harmonized. Boosted by government policy of modernizing educational environment, distribution of computers and multimedia system meets global standard. However, lack of full time staff at educational institutions prevents teachers and students from maintaining relations, and makes it difficult to take a multi-disciplinary approach. Therefore it is necessary to establish an educational system that can balance the needs of individual schools and government support, so as to develop educational contents that can be readily applied to educational classes. There are various kinds of artistic information in the daily environment. Artistic information can be recreated as solid artistic knowledge to encompass experience, creation, and appreciation. It depends on how to utilize the media in everyday environment more effectively. Students become most effective in acquiring, managing and utilizing knowledge when they are encouraged to be creative. Art education utilizing ICT will avail the setting up and running of the curriculum of art education whilst fostering creativity of students.
