Description

<p>In the United States the NCCAS (National Coalition for Core Arts Standards) has been working on developing media arts curriculum, which has now been included in their 2014 revised national arts standards. The curriculum includes a diverse spectrum of media art categories with a primary focus on video (time based media) artwork. In the media art curriculum created by NCCAS, we can see ways of developing some of the core values of art education. These include helping students to engage in finding different ways of understanding the world around them, and it also includes encouraging students to find their own answers to complex questions. These goals are accomplished while at the same time cultivating many general skills through specific processes. Reflecting on our own country’s art education, even above the role that media art has to play in the development of 21st century skills, we have a need to reconsider how we describe the value of art education—highlighting the importance of the subject beyond anything we have done in the past. The United States has been able to rapidly convert their art education structure in these past few years in large part through the influence of NCCAS. By studying what they have done we can find very important recommendations for Japan’s art education future.</p>
