Študija svetlobe kot eksperimentalni dejavnik pri opazovanju razvoja otrokovih umetniških zmožnosti v vrtcu
Povzetek
Igra s svetlobo in senco je za predšolske otroke neizčrpna spodbuda za razvoj divergentnega mišljenja in umetniškega izražanja. Z umetniškim izražanjem se razvija ustvarjalnost, z zavestnejšo uporabo umetniškega jezika pa se izkušnja bogati in tematsko dozoreva. Namen eksperimentalne študije je bil izmeriti stopnjo umetniškega razvoja pri otrocih, starih pet in šest let. Opazovali smo raven ustvarjalnega, optično - tematskega in umetniškega razvoja. V študiji sta bila načrtovana dva različna programa z izvedenimi dejavnostmi (eksperimentalni dejavniki) ter primerjana s kontrolno skupino. Prvi program (eksperimentalni dejavnik EP 1) je bil opisan kot sodoben ter prilagojen interesom in spodbudam otrok, drugi program (eksperimentalni dejavnik EP 2) pa je bil vnaprej pripravljen in poimenovan kot tradicionalni. V študiji je sodelovalo 161 otrok, starih pet in šest let. Za merjenje stopnje splošnega umetniškega razvoja so bile na začetku in koncu eksperimenta izdelane testne risbe. Te je skupina strokovnjakov analizirala glede na zgoraj omenjene razvojne vidike. Rezultati eksperimentalne skupine s tradicionalnim pristopom so pokazali statistično znatno boljšo uspešnost pri spremljanju ustvarjalnega razvoja kot pri kontrolni skupini. Znotraj obeh eksperimentalnih programov so otroci v programu EP 1 dosegli statistično boljše rezultate z vidika ustvarjalnega razvoja kot otroci v programu EP 2. Rezultati kažejo, da ima lahko dobro zasnovan program za igro s svetlobo in senco pozitiven učinek na otrokov umetniški razvoj.
