SLOVENE TEACHERS’ ATTITUDES OF ARTS AND CULTURAL EDUCATION IN PRIMARY SCHOOL
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2011, Vol 34, Issue 1
Abstract
Primary school teachers (342 in total) from all over Slovenia were questioned on their attitude towards arts and cultural education. The results of the study show that the teachers were most unanimous in regard to the importance of team planning in educational work in the field of the arts and the importance of cultural education for the life of an individual and society; this was followed by measures for raising the quality of arts and cultural education in primary school and the content of teacher training programs. Statistically significant differences in the teachers’ attitudes occurred with respect to their age and teaching position (class teacher and subject teacher). Unlike their younger colleagues and subject teachers, older teachers and class teachers expressed a more positive view of arts and cultural education.
