The Role of New Technologies for Enhancing Teaching and Learning in Arts Education

Abstract

The role of Arts in nowadays education and its significant function devolves the specific task of structural analysis through the organization of certain explanatory activities in strong relation with Arts. The specific educational exercise - in secondary education - postpones the ostentatious references and indicates Arts as an inner vision, leading to a real explanatory behavior, practiced especially in the theory of signs. The deciphering of the artistic symbolism aims to the meaning of the concept of interpretation and revelation of multiple senses, in virtue of certain legitimate values which are assigned to hermeneutics. As specific and valuable methods used in the actual Arts education, there can be mentioned: organizing certain activities in relation with the vector that connects the diffusion of the work to its particular meaning/interpretation, designing special “games” of oppositions and combinations within a system of units, but also introducing new technologies that confers the intention of approaching Arts and the related interpretative educational activities in order to offer to the students new meanings through the mediation of signs and works. The last method is explored in the paper, in the actual context of the Romanian education. 15 Arts in-service teachers were questioned in the frame of a continuous professional development program which included both face-to-face and on-line learning sessions, related to the knowledge level on using ICT in Arts education, the self-confidence concerning the implementation of ICT into the Arts classes, and the expected benefits that can be brought by the new technologies in the educational process
