Alaluusua, Elisa. "Sketchbooks : a comparative analysis of the use of sketchbooks by contemporary artists." Thesis, University of the Arts London, 2016. http://ualresearchonline.arts.ac.uk/12167/.
Full textAbstract:
This qualitative research project aims to gain a theoretical and practical understanding of what role sketchbooks play in the creative practice of contemporary artists, and what their shared and individual sketchbook methods are. A comparative analysis of thirteen contemporary artists’ sketchbook practices is offered. During the course of the research the private and public nature of sketchbooks emerged as an important and engaging area of inquiry that helped narrow the focus of the research process and offered an entry point for the analysis. The methodology used was fundamentally that of artistic research that drew heavily upon the characteristics of artistic practice in the field of drawing; as well as from hermeneutics, (auto)ethnography, and phenomenological analysis, each of which informed my practice and processes. This research aims to be useful for those conducting research into sketchbooks, drawing, drawing and writing, the nature of artistic process, creativity and pedagogy. The outcomes of this research are presented in two parts, in the thesis text and the documentation of an exhibition. In the final analysis the outcome is a multi - layered and multi - voiced story that identifies individual and shared practices used by contemporary artists during the compilation of their sketchbooks. Both the research and resultant artwork aim to bring to the foreground the largely overlooked public aspect of the sketchbook and contribute to knowledge in the fields of drawing research, video installation art, archival research and interviewing in the context of artistic research. Throughout the project I used drawing and video practices as methods of investigating, interrogating and disseminating knowledge. Thirteen contemporary artists’ interviews were recorded as a core element of the primary research, then reconfigured as an artwork / video installation called Thirteen Narratives By Thirteen Artists About Their Sketchbooks.

A pesquisa intitulada Acumular tesouros: um olhar sobre os cadernos de desenho analisa um conjunto de cadernos de desenho, elaborados por mim, entre 2006 e 2015. O objetivo desse estudo é investigar de que modo a utilização frequente dos cadernos de desenho constitui uma poética e de que forma os cadernos são abordados na história da arte. A metodologia, de ordem qualitativa, possui por principal ação a continuidade da produção prática, assim como as relações estabelecidas entre os meus cadernos e os de outros artistas. Neste estudo, evidencio o aspecto heterogêneo dos cadernos, já que estes comportam e agregam grande quantidade de elementos gráficos, além dos desenhos, tais como colagens e escritos. É explorada a hipótese de que os cadernos não são apenas instrumentos para obras futuras; mas que são, principalmente, veículos que possibilitam experimentações artísticas das mais variadas naturezas. São abordados os conceitos de hupomnêmata a partir de Michel Foucault (2004; 2010; 2011); colagem por Antoine Compagnon (1996); e desenho a partir de John Berger (2010).The present research entitled Accumulating treasures: a look upon sketchbooks analyzes a set of sketchbooks, created by myself between 2006 and 2015. The main objective of this research is to investigate in what way the frequent use of sketchbooks constitutes a poetics and how sketchbooks are addressed in Art History and in contemporary artistic production. The methodology – which follows a qualitative approach – has as main procedure the continuity of practical production as well as the establishment of relations among my sketchbooks and other artists’. I emphasize, in this study, the heterogeneous aspect of the sketchbooks, considering that they contain and aggregate a considerable amount of graphic elements besides the drawings, as well as collages and writings. The hypothesis explored is that the sketchbooks are not just an instrument to future works, but they are mainly means that allow artistic experiments of several kinds to be carried out. The concepts of hupomnêmata by Michel Foucault (2004; 2010; 2011); and collages by Antoine Compagnon (1996) are addressed along with the concept of drawing according to John Berger (2010).

Sobre esta experiencia en una ciudad extranjera, para comprenderla y comprenderse en ella, se siguió una metodología que consideró la reflexión práctica y teórica a partir del trabajo de campo y de revisión/reflexión de bibliografía pertinente, considerando el recorrido como estrategia para su vivencia, asunto que reflexionamos desde una temporalidad que se construye a partir de secuencias e interrupciones, es decir, que se produce en duración.
Se registró in situ diversas zonas de la ciudad de Barcelona, mediante dibujos a mano alzada a partir de recorridos que se fueron definiendo o descubriendo al azar, los cuales constituyen y configuran una huella gráfica de observaciones e interpretaciones relativas a la percepción del espacio urbano, sus cualidades y características formales y de uso.
Mediante el recorrer y el dibujar para registrar, de la práctica y la teoría aunadas en una búsqueda que se fue ampliando y ramificando para aproximarnos a una imagen conquistada de la experiencia, se intentó dar cuenta del cómo se comprende, construye, expresa y organiza esta experiencia para ser comunicada.

Esta pesquisa tem como objeto o caderno de esboço, mais conhecido na atualidade como sketchbook. Partindo de uma análise primeiramente material e constitutiva do sketchbook enquanto artefato, buscou-se um entendimento do objeto como uma porta de entrada para construção de novas possibilidades de leitura dos meios de comunicação, de seus produtos e subprodutos. Na sequência, tencionou-se os aspectos estéticos do sketchbook no esforço de entendê-lo como agente de persistência do pensamento gráfico tradicional na atual cultura digital. Com a aproximação entre os atributos materiais e estéticos, chegou-se à proposição de que os sketchbooks insistem no pensar gráfico como camada de percepção para se confrontar a atualidade e suas dinâmicas virtuais. Nessa aproximação, as noções que ajudaram na estruturação do objeto e sua posterior análise foram a memória, o imaginário, a narrativa e o devir. Com isso, ficou evidente que o sketchbook é uma ponte entre o pensar e o fazer, que se estabelece como um importante vínculo intersubjetivo, ligando pessoas a experiências estéticas e também a experiências comunicacionais. Por fim, a tese propõe que o cenário que se estabelece nessa relação seja uma cultura do esboço onde não se pretende a finalização nem tampouco a forma definitiva.
The object of this research is the sketchbook. Starting from the material and constitution analysis of the sketchbook as an artifact, it was intended to understand the object as a door to the construction of new reading possibilities of the media, its products and subproducts. Afterwards, it was studied the esthetic aspects of the sketchbook in order to understand it as a persistence agent of traditional graphic thinking in nowadays digital culture. By approaching the material and esthetic characteristics, it was possible to conclude that sketchbooks continue the graphic thinking as a perception layer to confront present time and its virtual dynamic. In this approach, the notions of memory, imagery, narrative, and becoming contributed to the structure of the object and its further analysis. It was evident, then, that the sketchbook is a bridge between thinking and doing, that establishes itself as an important intersubjective link, connecting people to esthetic and communication experiences. Finally, the thesis proposes that the stage that appears in this relationship is the sketch culture in which the conclusion is not aimed, and not even a definitive form.

Griffin, Kelvin. "An investigation into students' understanding of sketchbook annotation in art and design." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2002. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/10020381/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis is based on the observation that annotation in Art and Design Education has received little attention as a device for developing student understanding. As an Art and Design teacher I have, therefore, taken what I see as the predominance of 'labelling' practice further, exploring the potential of annotation by looking at the responses of five students to a number of questions designed to identify levels of understanding. This research has highlighted a number of issues concerning why and how annotation is used in sketchbooks, and what value these students attach to it. A desire to develop the effectiveness of annotation is the driving force behind this investigation. I have minded to understand the perceptions of those who teach, as well as the perceptions of those who are taught. By analysing both perspectives, different needs are addressed as part of an in depth examination of the data collected. I argue that annotating is the counterpart to sketching. By definition, both these activities are 'short-lived', and 'rapid', implying a longer time spent thinking, thinking that is not usually immediately available for consideration. Analysing particular language is crucial. I also argue that the process of condensing thought creates inferential gaps for us to consider. Furthermore, what happens during the time taken to annotate at different speeds is important to establish, in order to understand the reasons for its production. A developing theory emerges to suggest that further consideration of these aspects would enable students' concerns to be identified more clearly. This investigation sets out to articulate the understandings of students for the purpose of establishing meanings. This is achieved by considering two parallel lines of enquiry, relating time and intention. This triangulates thoughts about what motivates students to shorten written information to support their visual communications. Three main outcomes emerge. They relate to the language used by students, inferences inherent within their notes, and the pace of their annotation to indicate further significance. These outcomes make significant contributions to current awareness of the value of sketchbook annotation, and recommendations are made, about how to access this understanding, with a view to implementation.

Full textAbstract:
This is an arts-based research study on the effects of applying extensive and diverse sketching techniques to the development of a cohesive body of work, which reflects the significant and meaningful events of the artist-researcher’s life. The research techniques employed and studied consist of looking at historical exemplars, sketching, reflecting, critiquing, and revising. The results of the research were then reflected upon and applied to the field of art education in an attempt to discover the benefits for both teaching and learning in kindergarten through 12th grade curriculums.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is concerned with the art and act of sketching existing architecture. "Drawing an Education" refers to both educating the line by the practice and habit of drawing and to allowing the line to be the educator by drawing from buildings and places, disclosing relationships, structure and meaning. "Influence and evidence" refers to the influences that affect the process and the evidence as exhibited in a finely tuned intuition.
This thesis is arranged as a three-part inquiry:
* Drawing: how sketching facilitates an intimate connection between the architect and the place, the effect on the collective reality and cultural transmission, and sketching in relation to the photograph, both as a device and as a source;
* Influences: how six major influences impact the drawing process, each investigated individually and in relationship to one another, both in an historical as well as a poetic context - eye and perception; interpretation; representation; hand and discipline; media and format; and the line itself;
* Implications: how an architect's drawing an education through sketching the built environment is evidenced as a developed intuition and imagination.
It is intended that the reader will have a greater awareness of the process of architectural sketching and be encouraged to draw more, perceive more, and understand more as he sketches along the way, as well as when he embarks on his own Grand Tour.Master of Architecture

Avra, Katherine M. "Sketch-Plan Book: A Teacher’s Planning Resource for the Secondary Classroom." UKnowledge, 2019. https://uknowledge.uky.edu/art_etds/19.
Full textAbstract:
Teacher planning is a necessary process by which educators establish, facilitate, monitor, and evaluate lessons and learning within their classroom. For art educators, sketchbooks have been a foundational pillar in art curricula. The sketchbook has a lengthy legacy of yielding common, structured assignments. However, recent considerations have reframed sketchbook practices. Contemporary analysis has produced a pedagogical shift in approaches to sketchbooks and planning for sketchbook inclusion in the classroom. The sketch-plan book offers art teachers a streamlined resource to collect and maintain lesson ideas and inclusions, track on-going lessons, and plan for future teaching and learning. The purpose of this work is to explore an art teacher’s sketch-plan book usage as a resource and tool in the secondary art room.

Full textAbstract:
This senior thesis will primarily investigate artistic creativity, its relationship to psychological well-being and the power of the creative process to help harmonize internal tensions caused by either mental disorders or former traumas. I will accomplish this, first by offering a brief explanation of the evolution of creative thought, followed by various scientific explorations and theories of the connection between varying mental states and creation. I will support these findings with an analysis of the lives and works created by the painters Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, and Frida Kahlo, all subjects of public speculation about the state of their mental health and its impact on their work. This analysis will consider the creative process as a form of psychotherapy. I will conclude by sharing a personal examination of my own history with mental health and trauma and my representation of these experiences and my ability to overcome these events in my paintings for this senior project.

Terrell, Paul E. Jr. "Journaling for Critical Thinking." VCU Scholars Compass, 2006. http://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/etd/1341.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis describes a pretest - posttest study to increase the effectiveness of art journals at the high school level. The targeted population consisted of students in the ninth through twelfth grades in a middle class community, located in central Virginia. The visual art students were involved in the journaling (art workbook, sketchbook) process as a part of their curriculum. Following a pretest students were surveyed and adjustments were made from their input to make the art journals more effective. Often students were not picking up instructional cues introduced through demonstrations and art history integrated into the class structure. The researcher was concerned about the impact of standardized testing and the effect it was having on critical thinking. He hypothesized improved journaling techniques would facilitate the connection between class participation and student art projects.A review of the solution strategy revealed a need to adjust the number of pages required, provide more visual cues for research, and offer alternative two-dimensional design strategies. While these changes were made, the assessment tool was maintained as a consistent standard of measurement. Post intervention data indicated that adjustments to the journaling process significantly improved student's effective involvement and their scores.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis argues that a particular aesthetic theory (Esthetics), is implied by Peirce's Semeiotic, and that they have both been clarified when tested from the perspective of a visual art practice involving sketchbooks. This research also constructs and lays out the first 'user friendly' guide to Semeiotically analyse any object, be it emotional, material or conceptual. Findings were generated by comparing Peirce's sporadic writings on esthetics with his more complete Semeiotic, assessing them in situations making artworks, proposing and exhibiting them in public spaces, and analysing meanings of sketchbooks from UK public collections. It was found that in theory: - Peirce's Esthetic power develops from oscillating between the powers to 'form' and 'express' (generalise and specify), while accepting the limits to both powers, revealed by such an oscillation alongside self and hetero criticism. -this entails appreciating what is most or least up to us, enabling the most effect where one is most free and limiting frustration where least free. -a Peircean Esthetic power can be learnt; however it requires that the learner properly wishes to be directed to that goal (EP2:48). Implications for the visual arts through practice: - artists could contribute to all of Peirce's non-native sciences, (Esthetics, Ethics and Logic), as their appreciation of 'feelings' is well trained, if they can also 'formalise'. -art has a part role in natural education (and possibly institutional education) by developing an Esthetic power that Peirce claims could 'humanise and free' the individual (free in a Peircean sense, which may seem like very little freedom to some) (EP2: 147-148). In the conclusion, a summary of these uncovered implications is set against some problems raised by the complexity of the Semeiotic, and the immeasurability of Esthetic progress. Set against that critique is a positive assessment of the effects of the research on the sketchbook practice.

Full textAbstract:
As representatives of "an earlier stage of civilization," Native Americans in early nineteenth-century literature were integral in conversations of race relations, cultural development, and anthropological strata. They were a baseline of humanity against which more "civilized" nations of the world marked their progress, determined the value of their own cultural advancements, and proclaimed their superiority (Flint 1). They were an object of continuing fascination for Americans and Britons seeking to reinvent themselves in the aftermath of war and revolution, but their image in these nations was used as a derogatory slur (Fulford and Hutchings 1; Flint 6--7). Suggesting that a nation had a kinship with Native Americans was becoming an unfortunately familiar shortcut to suggest disgraceful backsliding into primitive ways. Rather than view Native Americans as markers of social degeneracy, barbarism, or ignorance, Washington Irving argues in his works that these figures could be revived as a positive connecting force for Americans and Britons. He recalls a more dignified Romantic image of the "noble savage" "intelligent, loyal, and proud" to overcome vengeful memories of war and violence. The Indian characters in A History of New York and The Sketchbook of Geoffrey Crayon are more than idle entertainments or broad caricatures; they are carefully crafted Romantic figures that embody the restorative, unifying ideals for which both Americans and Britons yearned in the aftermath of war. Irving uses Knickerbocker's History to reflect the capriciousness of public memory and the sometimes dangerous power of the biased storyteller. He exposes how the Native American legend became tainted by historians who tried to justify the ill-treatment these people received at the hands of the Europeans. In Crayon's Sketchbook, Irving continues to explore the mutability of history by showing how nations like Britain had been successful in inventing a heritage that drew their people together. Finally, in "Traits of Indian Character" and "Philip of Pokanoket," Irving fulfills the promise of the History by restoring the Romantic Indian to a position of respect and power in the American and British memory. Though Irving's writing doesn't attempt to correct the image of Native Americans enough to get at the real people behind the image society invented, he embraces the malleability of these important cultural figures to make observations on how we create and perceive history and align ourselves to the invented past. By re-examining these works through their romantic and historic intent in a transatlantic relationship, we can come to better understand Irving's position as he supported his American nationhood and sentimental British roots with a figure that resonated on both sides.

Durand, Nadine. "Le carnet de voyage : oeuvre en soi ?" Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017BOR30061/document.
Full textAbstract:
L’ambition de cette thèse est d’éclairer le processus qui conduit le voyageur à produire un carnet de voyage rassemblant notes graphiques et écrites, photographies et documents. Si cette production plastique est improvisée sur le motif, le voyageur programme en amont le support et se prépare techniquement et mentalement, définissant ainsi sa capacité à capter le réel. Les images créées en voyage par les artistes – de Léonard de Vinci, Albrecht Dürer, William Turner, Eugène Delacroix, Félix Ziem, Paul Gauguin, Zao Wou Ki à, plus récemment, Titouan Lamazou, Georges Wolinski, Michel Montigné, Bertrand De Miollis, Elsie Herberstein, Nicolas Jolivot, et Stéphanie Ledoux – sur feuillet libre ou dans un album, informent sur les stratégies spécifiques de connaissance du pays et de rencontre des habitants. L’étude de leurs moyens et dispositifs de travail sur le terrain, éclaire la quête artistique et spirituelle qui les a mobilisés. Au retour dans l’atelier, l’artiste transforme les informations du voyage à l’aide d’autres savoir-faire techniques et artistiques. Le carnet de voyage est devenu populaire parce que le petit format favorise la liberté d’expression individuelle dans le dispositif du livre, à la fois extime et intime. Pour certains artistes professionnels, ce format conservé dans l’intimité de l’atelier, se révèle être un condensé d’audaces techniques, de premiers jets virtuoses et un compagnon de vie privilégié, qui est aussi à l’origine des œuvres destinées au public. Le carnet de papier adapté au nomadisme, qui stimule la recherche des artistes reconnus, tout comme la pratique spontanée du dessin et de l’écriture, devient à la fois surface et volume, outil et récit, temps et déplacement, travail et résultat. Ma thèse cherche à montrer que le carnet remplissant ces fonctions, devient avatar holographique du voyage et œuvre en soiThe ambition of this thesis is to elucidate the process that leads the traveller to produce a compilation of graphic and written notes, photographs and documents. If this production is to be carried out during the journey itself, the traveller must think about the materials that will be necessary to the execution of the work, to catch reality. But a certain form of mental preparation is also necessary. The images achieved by travelling artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Albrecht Dürer, William Turner, Eugène Delacroix, Félix Ziem, Paul Gauguin, Zao Wou Ki and, more recently, Titouan Lamazou, Georges Wolinski, Michel Montigné, Bertrand de Miollis, Elsie Herberstein, Stéphanie Ledoux and Nicolas Jolivot, are loose-leaf or in albums, which set out specific strategies aimed at acquiring knowledge about an environment and its inhabitants. The study of the ways and the meanings of producing a travel sketchbook throws light on the spirit of artistic and spiritual inspiration which was the driving force of the work. Back in his or her workshop, the artist retrospectively organises his sketches in the light of his or her experience, thanks to technical and artistic means. The travel sketchbook has become popular because its small format encourages an individual freedom to express within the framework of a book, whether private or intended for disclosure. For some professional artists, this size, which is used and kept secretly at home, proves out to be a summary of sketches and discoveries that will provide material for works, which may be offered to the public. The travel sketchbook is also an accretion of rough drafts, technical demonstrations and insights into its author’s psychological depths. Paper, as a medium adapted to travel, stimulates artistic and literacy research. It is at once plane and volume, instrument and narrative, time and movement, work and achievement. The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate how the travel sketchbook by performing these functions, can give a holographic account of a journey, and can thus constitute a work of art in itself

Previous issue date: 2011-05-10Esta dissertação investiga narrativas visuais no gênero do design de moda, que contemplam a roupa enquanto matéria ou substância capaz de sustentar a história. A pesquisa é contornada por narrativas de moda concebidas na contemporaneidade, seus componentes visuais proeminentes e os ritmos que se configuram no arranjo da plasticidade da roupa bem como suas manifestações de sentidos. Ronaldo Fraga, designer de moda contemporâneo, é destacado como exemplo nesta dissertação por se tratar de um designer narrativo comprometido com o ato de contar pequenas histórias às avessas, as quais se distinguem pela falta de linearidade. As narrativas concebidas por Ronaldo Fraga e que tangenciam a nossa investigação perpassam pela literatura, imagens de caderno de esboços, roupas e desfiles, além das mãos anônimas de costureiras, rendeiras e bordadeiras que desvelam o processo de criação do designer. As obras literárias, "O turista aprendiz", de Mario de Andrade, e "Grande Sertão Veredas", de Guimarães Rosa, assim como dois personagens retirados do último romance citado, Riobaldo e Diadorim, inspiraram as narrativas de moda das estações verão 2011 e verão 2007, eleitas como o foco de investigação deste trabalho.

Full textAbstract:
Situated between embryonic ideas and 'finished' work are thought-image drawings, the tangible evidence of the exploratory thinking of artists. Often found in sketchbooks, these drawings are ?becoming-art?, precursors to the work exhibited or performed in galleries and public places. Thought- image drawings are private drawings that reveal the uncensored hand at play, and hide in the shadows of public discourse. They are too easily ignored or forgotten, and if they are kept, they are relegated to archives where they remain, under-utilised. In this study, I explore and establish sketchbooks as dynamic, dual sites of discovery in which artists encode a plethora of ideas for themselves and for others, as long as they are saved and shown at some future time.

Full textAbstract:
This study proposes a methodology for the examination and analysis of drawing in artists' sketchbooks. The study of the physical structure of the sketchbook is critical to our understanding of its context as well as the iconography and style of the content. The problems inherent in studying sketchbooks and their drawings are assessed in Chapter one. The manner in which drawing is studied in general in the history of Canadian art is also presented. Erroneous perceptions of neglected sketchbooks are discussed and the essential and fundamental knowledge about drawing and the nature of the sketch as a form of drawing are described. The history of the blankbook as an artist's drawing tool is briefly examined and related to the way it is studied by scholars. Problems around the accessibility and presentation of sketchbooks for study are commented on, as well as aspects of their description and interpretation

The problem of this study was to investigate the extent to which largely self
directed, individualized work in student sketchbooks constitutes valid art
experience in terms of current guidelines for art education (CSEA, B.C. Ministry
of Education, DBAE, various authors). The research questions were:
1) What does the sketchbook content consist of?
2) What is the experience of the participants in regard to a) content, b)
context, and c) process?
3) When students are directing their own learning within the structure of
this model, what do they say they are learning?
4) To what extent does the work constitute valid content and experience,
and provide intellectual development while serving the diverse interests
and ability levels of high school art students?
The research consisted of the analysis of video taped interviews with a
purposive sample of six high school students. The interviews were transcribed
and correlated to photocopies of the sketchbook pages for analysis. The data was
analyzed using the Macintosh computer program HyperRESEARCH.
It is concluded that the sketchbook is a versatile and engaging medium for
meaningful, contextual learning and a viable means for evaluating progress and
achievement. It is both an adjunct and a driver of studio work. It is frequently
the most travelled book in a student’s school bag and the last one to be put away at
night.
Where clientele is the most diverse, in multi-grade, multi-course split
classes, where disabilities and weak language skills demand special attention,
the sketchbook is invaluable in tracking progress and in accommodating
individual goals, interests and rates of learning. If it is to provide intellectual
development and experience, as recommended by current guidelines, the sketchbook needs to be more than a book for sketching in. Clear goals and
criteria need to be in place along with classroom support and enabling skills.
Teaching strategies may then make provisions for individualized curricula in a
process that encourages the development of a depth and breadth of knowledge,
awareness of multiple cultural values, participation in the traditions of the
history of art, critical thinking and the development of lifelong learning skills.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of electronic sketchbook on improving children vocabulary and speaking ability. The subjects consisted of 38 5-year-old children. They were sampled from the kindergarten classes of XX Elementary School of Kaohsiung County to carry out this experimental study. This study utilized two-factors〝nonequivalent-control group design〞.the experimental group was treated with teaching of electronic sketchbook for 12 weeks. The control group was treated with teaching of paper sketchbook. The teaching programs were proceeded with the curriculum design of children activity. We taught these two groups respectively with one kind of sketchbook for one hour every week. After 12 week respective teachings, we compared the teaching effects of these two different groups with each other. The dependent variable of vocabulary was the most scores on “Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised”. And the expressive language ability is the scores on “The Test Of Children Oral Expression”. With the experimental data processed by two-factor covariance analysis, we wanted to find out whether it have the difference effects between different teaching groups and gender. The result of this study indicated as follows: 1.After comparing the respective scores of these two groups on The Test Of Children Oral Expression, there was insignificant interaction between different teaching groups and gender. On the main effect, there was insignificant difference between genders. However, there was significant difference between the experimental group and the control group. This means the grades of “The Test Of Children Oral Expression” with teaching of electronic sketchbook was better than those with teaching of paper sketchbook. 2.After comparing the respective scores of these two groups on “Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised”, there was insignificant interaction between different teaching groups and gender. On the main effect, there was insignificant difference between genders. However, there was significant difference between the experimental group and the control group. This means the grades of ‘Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised” with teaching of electronic sketchbook was better than those with teaching of paper sketchbook. 3.According to the analysis of the questionnaire survey of electronic sketchbook teaching, we found most children like this teaching.

The purpose of this research is to understand the influence of the sketchbook teaching for improving the preschool children’s self-concept and the peer interaction, which includes the different teaching groups and sexes effects. Forty-seven 4-years-old children from Kaohsiung City Public Xinxin Kindergarten are randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. According to the Quasi-experimental research method, through the expert validity, we choose sixteen sketchbooks for the experimental group students and perform a 8- week- teaching. Quantitative research tools include “The children self-concept scale” and “The children peer interaction scale”. We also produce “children’s feedback questionnaire of sketchbook teaching” and “parents’ feedback questionnaire of sketchbook teaching” to process the percentage and qualitative analysis. The test data before and after the teaching are statistically analysis by SPSS12.0 for Windows. After treating the data by descriptive statistic, single-factor ANOVA and two-factor analysis of covariance. Some conclusions are as following: In the children self-concept field: there are significant differences between 2 groups in three dimensions: “totally self-judgment”, “language and communication ability” and “problem solving ability”. This indicates that the sketchbook teaching has overall effect on improving the self-concept of children. In the children peer interaction field: there are significant differences in three dimensions: “profit social behavior”, “withdrawal behaviors” and “exclusion”. This also indicates that the sketchbook teaching has overall effect on improving the peer interaction of children. Especially, we observe that girls have significant improvements in “profit social behavior”. As a result both children and parents not only represent that they like and agree the way of sketchbook teaching, but also get positive learning effect. Finally, base on the result of this research, we propose some suggestions for the school administrator, the teachers and the future researchers.

Collins, Michael. "The dialogue journal-sketchbook in art education : developing creative abilities in art students through mutually self-reflective dialogues between teacher and student." Thesis, 2001. http://spectrum.library.concordia.ca/2232/1/NQ74835.pdf.
Full textAbstract:
My thesis elucidates an attempt to make mutually reflective creative dialogues about art making, between student participants and their instructor(s), a more conscious practice in art-education studio classrooms. It builds its conclusions through the methodology of dialogue journal research, ethnographic case construction and narrative inquiry. Art educators have been interested in the role that reflective thinking plays in creativity. My study confirms that role and suggests that models of creative thinking and reflective thinking run on parallel lines. It proposes that reflective thinking and creative art making are functions of the "personal narrative" of the participant. My thesis suggests that Art Education research in these areas needs to expand its approach to incorporate narrative inquiry methods if it wishes to further open up the creative possibilities for the student and the teacher to employ reflective practice in the studio classroom.

Percussion instruments come in a wide variety of timbre. Combinations of Chinese and Western instruments also enrich the timbre and result in an increasing number of percussion music with contemporary concepts. Aiming to analyze how metal instruments are utilized and interpreted in Chinese and Western percussion music, this essay is concentrating on four contemporary works, including three Chinese works: Deconstruction II, arranged by Wang Hsiao-Yin and Ko Yuan-Fu, Drama (Mov. VI) and Parade, both composed by Guo Wenjing , and one West percussion work: Sketchbook III by Lin Kueiju. These works were composed between 1995 and 2013. They make use of traditional elements and break through the performance skills of traditional metal percussion instruments as well as the syntax of music. By revealing the background and analyses of these compositions, this essay further investigates their characteristics in both Chinese and Western percussion and thereby demonstrate the author’s personal interpretation in the performance. This essay is divided into eight chapters. Chapter One serves as an orientation, explaining the motivation and purpose, research boundary and contents, methodology as well as literature review of this issue. Chapters Two and Three provide a brief introduction to three Chinese percussion compositions and the Western work Sketchbook III respectively, including information about the background of their composers and exposition of the works. Chapters Four through Seven are designated to the analysis and interpretation of the four works respectively. Chapter Eight is the conclusion. By exploring the timbre, structure, and musical elements of these works, the author has gained a better understanding of various styles and techniques to express both Chinese and Western percussion music. Besides, with in-depth analyses of the relationship and differences among them, the author also learned how the characteristics of metal percussion instruments are displayed and manipulated to express the emotions of musical compositions. Interpreting percussion music from a distinct perspective, the current study is expected to serve as a practical reference for performers and composers interested in creating their own percussion music.

After Taiwan recovers, the society rebuilds its homeland from the flames of war. Some old buildings carrying the ancient city appearance and memories are being taken down and placed under construction. The space of the old time history, human stories and customs are disappearing from every corner. Therefore, taking the concern for old construction, this design creation takes modern architecture of Tainan as an object and is based on the spirit of provinciality advocated by glue painting in the time of Japan’s occupation, field surveys and online sketchbooks. In design, through the main characters in the story, through a travel sketch, gradually it brings out the beauty of modern architecture in Tainan. It forms a 46-page online sketchbook which contrasts the old pictures, explanations of time, purpose and the unique features of the buildings with the advantages of visual, aural and information functions. The online sketchbook provides readers with an understanding of the different styles of modern architecture in Tainan and building development through the story, historical photos and words.

Neste relatório da prática pedagógica supervisionada abordaremos a relevância dos fatores que promovem ou inibem o processo da criatividade do aluno, procurando-se implementar estratégias propostas por diversos autores, como Amabile, Alencar, Sternberg e Lubart, de modo a estimular a prática do desenho.
O enquadramento teórico que subjaz ao trabalho desenvolvido durante o estágio teve sempre presente a importância do desenho como um elemento indispensável em toda a linguagem plástica. Como tal, a sua utilização através do Diário Gráfico coloca este suporte como um instrumento pedagógico e campo de experimentação ilimitado, que inspira diversas significações de registo gráfico, ao mesmo tempo que exercita, amplia e cruza os conteúdos da disciplina e os de outras áreas.
A prática do desenho expressivo em Diário Gráfico, cujos temas foram fornecidos sob a forma de textos, e cujos materiais e técnicas foram trabalhados em contexto de sala de aula, permitiu-nos observar uma transformação gradual do processo criativo do aluno, contribuindo para desenvolver a perceção e a expressão gráfica, e tornar os alunos mais reflexivos e críticos, atitudes necessárias para a formação da singularidade e vivência de cada um.The Supervised Teaching Practice Report deals with elements that bear relevance to identifying factors that encourage or inhibit students’ creative processes, by implementing effective strategies, as proposed by authors like Amabile, Alencar, Sternber e Lubart, as a means to stimulate drawing practice. The theoretical framework, based on the work carried out during the internship, takes into consideration the fundamental importance of the practice of drawing as an intrinsic component of all plastic language. Therefore, the use of the sketchbook proves to be an important pedagogical tool which provides students with a record of their unlimited experimentation and is a constant source of inspiration, always open to various interpretations and simultaneously encouraging the practice of sketching, which broadens and crosses its content with other teaching subjects. The practice of expressive drawing in a sketchbook, based on topics depicted in text form, and whose techniques were carried out in the classroom context, revealed the students’ gradual creative process, contributed to the development of their individual perception and graphic expression, building a critical and reflexive conscience which are the essential tools in shaping the uniqueness of their own life experiences.
