ARTI project: art for learning
Why
art in our Colegio Trueba
Art runs in parallel
with human development throughout the course of History. From the very first
years of life, children naturally play, sing, dance, draw and paint. These
activities are essential for their sensory, motor, cognitive and emotional
development. With these they learn and relate to the world.
Numerous scientific
studies show that the brain only learns when there is emotion and art is a
powerful way to achieve this. For this reason, at Colegio Trueba we have
designed the ARTI project, so that all students can be like a seed that
grows and, from the first years of infant education (1-2 years) to the second
year of Baccalaureate (17-18 years), they can be involved in activities
designed to foster their creativity, in all subjects and adapted to each
educational stage.
What
is the ARTI project and what is its focus?
During the 2017/18
academic year our students will follow the global ARTI, ARTXANDAKO TRUEBA
ART IKASTETXEA project which focuses on the
learning of historical, linguistic, mathematical and scientific knowledge
through art, while developing skills and abilities such as critical thinking
and collaborative work.
The
creation of a culture of critical thinking through observation,
reflection
and the exchange of ideas is among the objectives of the ARTI project.
These three elements have always been essential to personal development.
Currently, in schools in Finland, a country at the forefront of education, they
are focusing on art as a key to developing creativity and collaborative work,
which are seen as essential for the 4.0 society that is approaching.
