Abstract:


Today, we live in a society where digital media seep into and are interwoven with all areas of life. This so-called post-digital condition also concerns primary school children. Digital media are therefore part of the young generation’s everyday life. And yet, hardly any concepts for teaching art using digital media in the context of creative, self-reflective tasks have been published in German-speaking countries for the first years of primary school (6- to 9-year-old children). Here grounds need to be shifted. Against this backdrop, we are looking into the reasons for the absence of digital media in primary school art lessons in a pilot project at Zurich University of Teacher Education in 2024/25. By using a design-based research approach we explore how digital media can enrich analogue, process-based aesthetic tasks. We also investigate under what circumstances the use of digital media is practicable and meaningful for children and teachers in everyday art lessons. Finally, we ask what “Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge” (referring to the TPACK-model) teachers need for teaching media literacy focusing art education and how we as teacher educators can support them in building the necessary professional competences. The presentation shows the implementation of teaching/learning scenarios in a primary school class. On this preliminary basis, the questions posed above are discussed.
