Summary or Abstract
|
:
|
The art education curriculum in Saudi Arabia is characterized by two shortcomings: first, as is the case in the West, it equates art education with instruction in art; and second, art education, along with the rest of the curriculum, was imported almost wholesale from the West and therefore does not fit in with the ideology and worldview of Saudi Arabian society, which are based on the religion of Islam.

Topical Name Used as Subject

The author proposes a definition of art education that makes art a main part of education, the means through which children are: understood; then taught according to their interests; and then guided onto a path of their own choosing. The "psycholo-Islamic stages" model is laid out, which divides a child's development into three stages of progressive independence and responsibility.
