Ryo Morita (PhD student) received the Encouragement Award of the Art Education Award

Ryo Morita (PhD student, supervisor: Kazuhiro Ishizaki) has been awarded the Encouragement Award of the 21st Art Education Award.

The award was selected from papers written by authors aged 44 or younger and published in the 2023th issue of the Society for Art Education Journal, Art Education (published in March 3), and was presented at the Society's 45th Hirosaki Conference on March 2024, 3.

Below are the reasons for the award's selection by the selection committee and Morita's acceptance speech.

(Quoted from the Art Education Society Newsletter No. 116.https://www.artedu.jp/file/653

Ryo Morita, "Trends in research and practical issues regarding art and craft instruction in special support schools for physically disabled children - A review of domestic literature"

Morita Ryo's paper provides useful knowledge that contributes to the outlook for future research by clarifying the research trends and practical issues in art and craft instruction at special needs schools for physically disabled children. In addition, this is a review paper that has never been nominated for an art education award, but this research has conducted a detailed investigation of previous research, making literature research one of the research methods. The collection procedure took into account not only databases but also hand searches, and the paper was constructed based on carefully selected papers and was carried out in good faith. The analysis and classification of the literature was also carried out quantitatively and qualitatively. In particular, in the qualitative analysis, categories and subcategories were formed inductively to derive the argument. It is expected that the paper will be recognized as having follow-up value in this field and will become a stepping stone for wider research in the future.

Last year, Liao Shitong (graduated from the doctoral program, currently a lecturer at Yamagata University, supervised by Ishizaki Kazuhiro) also received the same award.

Supporting Children's Creativity During the COVID-19 Crisis: Sharing "Let's Grow Our Creatures at Home" Video

The first part of the children's crafting video series "Grow! Everyone's Home Crafts - Bug Edition," created by Matsuzaki Akio, a first-year master's student in the Art Support Program, titled "Let's Make a Colorful Caterpillar with Paper Clay!" has been released.

 

      

 

"Grow! Everyone's Home Crafts" was created as part of the University of Tsukuba's School of Art and Design's social contribution activities through art during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the aim of creating a creative space for children spending time at home and supporting their activities.

 

 

The content involves creating living creatures through crafts and then, through further crafts, transforming these creatures into their grown-up form. This time, as the "Insect Edition," over the course of three videos, we will watch a caterpillar grow into a chrysalis and cocoon, and then further into a butterfly.

  

 

Rather than simply following a model, the content is designed to develop children's creativity and individuality, and they can enjoy it as if they were "crafting together with an older sister in an online art program."
