Many schools have their art programs removed in an effort to improve test
scores and save
money. However, some researchers believe that this is not correct. Students can
master some basicskills in art class that they cannot find in a normal classroom.
Allow me to share why you have to take art class.
First and most important ,it stimulates creativity (激发创造力). Art schools
encourage you tothink outside the box and be creative enough to create something
artistic. It can be used not only in art but in life, too Besides, it helps you make
the right choice. In art class, you are usually free to do what you want. In every
art class, you are required to make decisions that can determine what your painting
will turn out to be.
In addition,students can learn the art of critical (批判性的) thinking as a
skill of observation (观看). For example, art students find ways to imagine. That
is a skill they need to become better readers and problem settlers.
What is more, it is noted that the company' s bosses are actively looking for
employees who can think creatively. Creative thinking is one of the most important
skills that students can learn in art courses.
Finally, students who are trained in art class have interesting mental habits.
They learn how to work on a task for a long time and how to continue to work even
if they are discouraged. They are better for creating a link between the classroom
and the outside world. In addition, children who do art work are able to look back
on their work and make judgments about themselves.
