Abstract
The major aim of this study is to clarify multiple educational goals in animation-related teaching materials in art education, and to construct a conceptual model that helps practitioners to understand them structurally. In this paper current textbooks for drawing and manual arts in elementary school and art in junior and high school were focused on and reviewed from a synchronic point of view. In total 30 animation-related teaching materials were analyzed and 10 educational goals were extracted. These goals were divided into two categories; one is education for animation and the other is education through animation, and finally a two-layered model to bridge them was constructed. This model will be useful as a “map” and an assessment tool for animation education practice in art education.
