La formación artística como herramienta pedagógica para el desarrollo integral de niños y niñas de la escuela rural de Guaticha del municipio de Siachoque

Abstract

The present investigation is located from a definition of artistic education that manifests itself specifically in the teaching of art in elementary school. Taking into account, in addition, the lack of agreements to give meaning to this area within the PEI Institutional Educational Project, constitutes the main difficulty for its development in the institutions which arises from the planning of these projects. This is why an isolated and disjointed work is produced, without much conviction that conceives the arts in a disjointed way with other academic processes and not as an enhancer of them. In general terms, the principals, teachers, parents and many teachers are unaware of the importance of arts education for comprehensive development; there are cases in which the area is not even recognized as indispensable and mandatory in the curriculum and therefore in the study plan. Sadly, in formal education spaces, achievements are not the result of dedicating the time necessary to arrange them, nor of having adequate spaces and materials, or of updating programs for teachers or of supporting team-developed proposals , or the exploration of methods that motivate research to improve the quality of education, only account for compliance with the standard without going further and without promoting a contextualized education and grounded to the needs of its students, which they urgently need to find meaning in what they learn
