The Workshop Model of Teaching in Eduadion in the Arts : The Practice of Education that draws upon the Social Constructionism Paradigm

本研究以德州农工大学英语系泰勒博士的“创意写作”工作坊为例，探讨工作坊在中学美术教学中的应用，并提出在中学美术教学中的应用模式。创意写作被认为是工作坊方法的主要起源。作者通过课堂参与观察、运用福克纳倡导的“教育批评”和非结构化访谈等方法，提炼出课堂话语形成关联性、产生原本不会产生的思想、理解审美需求、改变学生的诗歌观念等几个特征，作为工作坊教学法成功的主要指标。作者研究了纽约市的林肯中心为艺术教育工作者举办的美育专题研讨会 关于我们 院玛克辛格林的社会建构主义哲学与林肯中心的工作坊教学法有着深刻的联系，本文的最后一部分致力于将这种工作坊教学模式应用于一所中学的音乐教育课堂。本研究以一位国小音乐教师与一位国小音乐教师为研究对象，进行行动研究，以探讨国小音乐教师运用工作坊教学模式所获得的全新教学方法。本研究从教育评论、教师访谈、学生反思性写作三个方面，归纳出工作坊教学成功的三个指标。这些指数是：1）注意到并认可同伴的不同表达方式，从而形成同伴间的关系; 2）从同伴中学习到自我反思; 3）对音乐表达方式的新认识。少

The aim of this research is to explore the use of workshops in class teaching and to propose the model for use in certain art education settings in the secondary school.For this purpose, a Workshop in "Creative Writing" by Dr. Taylor at the English Department at Texas A&M University was examined to understand higher education workshop methods. Creative writing is credited as the major origin for the workshop method. Participant observation of the class, utilization of the "Educational Criticism" advocated by Eisner, and non structured interviews were all conducted by the author.Several features such as forming relatedness through class discourse, producing of Ideas that otherwise would have not been produced, understanding the aesthetic demand, and changing the students' conception of poetry, were extracted as the major indices of the successful Workshop Method.Next, the author researched the special workshop for arts' educators in aesthetic education at New York City's Lincoln Center … More Institute. There exist deep connections between Maxine Greene's philosophy that draws upon the social constructionism paradigm and the workshop method of teaching at the Lincoln Center.The final part of research was devoted to an application of this Workshop model of teaching to an actual class of music education at a middle school. An action research between the author and the junior high music teacher and an elementary school music teacher, was presented so the junior high teacher could acquire a completely new teaching method using this workshop model. Three indices for a successful workshop method teaching were extracted from analysis of the educational criticism, from narrative interviews with the teacher, and from the students' reflective writing. These indices are : 1) noticing and approval of the diverse expressions of peers resulting in relatedness among fellow students,2) the learning from peer students of self reflection, and3) the emerging of a new recognition of musical expression.
