其他标题:A Study on the Teaching Method of Drawing Education in Primary Schools in the Late Meiji Era (I) : An Examination and Analysis of Drawing Guides Employed in the Primary School Associated with Tokyo Aoyama Normal School in the 1908 and 1909 School Years
其他摘要:The objective of this study was to clarify the actual state of drawing education in Japanese primary schools in the late Meiji era by investigating the teaching methods and guides employed at the primary school associated with Tokyo Aoyama Normal School. Though just a single school, it is evident through an analysis and comparison of drawing guides that it exercised considerable influence nationwide. Specifically, comparisons were made with Shogakkorei Shiko Kisoku (rules for primary schools) issued in 1907, a report drafted by the Drawing Investigation Committee on standard education, and government-designated drawing textbooks. The results indicate that the state of drawing education at the primary school associated with Tokyo Aoyama Normal School was more advanced than recognized in the report of the Drawing Investigation Committee and was of a higher standard than required by educational guidelines of the period.
