Inevitability of Transcendental External in Art Education Methodology

“Non-Prescriptive Process” Concept and the Other Things

Abstract

Through consideration of art education in schools, the author shows that a characteristic of art education is its “non-prescriptive process” with transcendental orientation, not “the present”, and presents six sub-conclusions as follows. 1. Art education is a “non-prescriptive process” through generated transcendental orientation while guaranteeing a vivid present. 2. Transcendental other people have an educational effect on us. 3. Artworks are given by others to our gift exchange cycle. Appreciation education is the process of enabling students to participate in this cycle. 4. The growth and development of children related to art education has firm logic as a process. 5. A receptive attitude to self-external resistance becomes a metaphor of listening rather than seeing. 6. The positional types of children, educational content, and teachers are present- or process- oriented types.
