Integrating Arts Education for Learning Result: A Bright but Tough Way

In order to explore and respond to UNESCO Seoul Agenda: Goals for the development of arts education (Buck, 2010) [1] actions, this paper collected the results from Linyi University based on the survey that conducted by School Education Gateway platform. Then, the findings indicate that arts play an essential role in learning results by cultivating learners’ ability to understand and express different topics and themes. However, some ignorance also existed in the long term on applying arts education to the well-performed learning result. Arts, as the critical component of Cultural Awareness and Expression Competence (“Key Competences for Lifelong Learning”, 2019) [2] (The Eight Key Competences for Lifelong Learning), which indicates the cultural awareness goes first, nerveless, the survey’s result implied that certain numbers of the institutions and individuals failed to realize that, even some of them do, the current situation is not capable of achieving that goal. Therefore, it requires not only the organizations but the individuals should also establish awareness toward the arts education in forming the learners with well-performed learning results under the guidance of the UNESCO’s SDG4 (Quality Education). (“Goal 4: Quality education—The Global Goals”, 2022) [3] Meanwhile, strengthening the arts education’s integration with other subjects will enable students to develop more fully in a more relaxed learning environment than ever before.
