Which is better, zebra art or Hong En's little painter?

From tiger mom and cat dad to Xiao Huanxi and then to Xiao Shede, who has been popular recently, hot words such as "chicken baby" and "parenting involution" frequently appear in everyone's field of vision.

For the sake of their children's future competitive strength, parents should not only enroll their children in English, Chinese, mathematics and other professional courses, but also enroll their children in art classes.

Coupled with the recent policy of prohibiting early admission, the only courses that children aged 3-8 can apply for insurance at present are art classes.

So the question is, which course is more cost-effective?

Today, Jazz Fish made a comparative evaluation between Zebra's new Zebra Art and the now-popular Little Bear Art to see if this new dark horse of Zebra Art is as systematic as other AI courses of Zebra.

In addition, as a big brother, bear art, compared with zebra art, which is more suitable for your children? Next, Mr. Yu will evaluate the cost performance of the two art classes from the aspects of course level, focus, class links and price.

Zebra art attaches importance to the cultivation of imagination.

The official zebra art class was held on March 26th, and it has only been held for more than two months.

Horizontal interpretation

On the level, zebra art is divided into three levels: S 1, S2 and S3 * * *, but only S2 and S3 levels have been developed, that is, courses for children aged 4-8.

Its curriculum goal mainly lies in following the development law of children's painting and attaching importance to cultivating children's imagination.

As can be seen from the grade table, the course divides the ability to achieve goals into artistic creation ability and potential cultivation.

Artistic creation ability includes four knowledge points: modeling, composition, color and material. The cultivation of potential includes the cultivation of imagination, aesthetic ability, practical ability and concentration.

Therefore, the difficulty of zebra art is rising from "basic graphics and elements" in S 1 to "multiple modeling and multiple composition methods" in S3. And put the cultivation of imagination in the first step of potential cultivation at every level.

Category link

After experiencing the class session, Mr. Yu found that the class mode of zebra art is basically the same as that of Bear Art and Gubi Art, both of which are the mode of unlocking the course on the app.

The class of zebra art is divided into five parts: "aesthetic education class, hand drawing, I am a little painter, study report, and teacher calling".

Among them, take the S2-level course Toucan Cake Shop as an example.

The aesthetic education class is a small animation of about 5 minutes, and nursery rhymes are added. One story after another, the picture is exquisite. Decorating cakes with patterns can guide children to exert their imagination, and simple patterns can be turned into brand-new patterns through their own imagination.

The time of children's songs is closely related to the animation theme, which helps children remember and lays the foundation for the creative process.

Hands-on painting is a 25-minute creative process. Through the combination of real people and animation, each link needs to be manually clicked to enter the next link.

The teacher will disassemble the creative steps of a work in detail and let the children draw according to the teacher's rhythm. But the course will allow children to observe physical characteristics before writing and combine them with daily life.

For example, socks are used as creative materials to make children realize that art comes from life, so that children can have their own thinking and know why they paint like this.

Besides, some children can play by themselves.

Finally, in the process of children's creation, teachers will ask questions to children. These questions can cause children to think, but because they are recorded in advance, the characters in the video can answer quickly, leaving less time for children to think.

I am a little painter. I took pictures of the works I finished in class and uploaded them. The children named the work and made a phonetic introduction.

Next, the learning report session will share the children's classroom works.

Finally, the teacher will review the knowledge points of this lesson through oral explanation during the teacher's phone call.

Overall experience, the highlight of zebra art is not only to cultivate children's observation and imagination, but also to improve children's practical ability.

However, the AI curriculum also has limitations, requiring parents to accompany in the classroom and guide children to think more.

Bear art attaches importance to the cultivation of hands-on ability

About Xiong Yi, Mr. Fish has commented many times. Let me briefly talk about it today.

The bear art course is also divided into three levels: S1-S3 * * *. At present, all of them have been developed, and the recommended age is similar to zebra art.

Judging from the course content, no matter which stage, it focuses on the cultivation of hands-on ability and expression ability, and the imagination and creativity are weak.

In class, Bear Art is divided into six parts: "Bear invites you to draw, opens the door of painting, plays with colors, I am a little painter, reports on learning, and calls from teachers".

There is one more link than zebra art, but in fact bear art separates the coloring link. There is little difference between the overall class flow and zebra art.

The difference lies in the creative process. Both zebra art and bear art let children follow the footsteps of the teacher in the video, but bear art does not let children take the initiative to observe the real thing.

When painting, it is still limited to teaching children simple strokes, without guiding them to play their own thinking, and simple imitation is not very inspiring to children.

Relatively speaking, the coloring link of bear art is more prominent. Teachers will take children to experiment with creative methods of color overlapping and oil-water separation.

However, the actual operation will be like a coloring process. Most of the time, teachers let children color, and rarely guide children to color according to their own observation or imagination.

Mr. Yu is experiencing S2 course for children aged 4-6. For a 5-year-old child, it doesn't make much sense to simply train the skills of drawing outlines and coloring borders.

Cost-effective comparison

From this perspective, bear art is not as good as zebra art in cultivating children's imagination, so it can directly enter zebra art? Don't worry.

Sir Fish listed all the information of each AI class in a table for comparison, and added another popular AI class: Gooby Art. ..

It can be seen that zebra art has an advantage in price and high cost performance.

However, Sir Fish also said that the AI course is one-way interactive. Although zebra art can guide children to think, there is not much time. Therefore, for children aged 3-6, parents need to accompany them to class, so that children can seriously think about the problems thrown by teachers.

And encourage children to create works different from teachers according to teachers' methods, let children develop the habit of thinking and imagination, and let the cost-effective AI classroom play a role.

For bear art, Sir Yu's suggestion can be used as a "handicraft class". If parents want to cultivate their children's hands-on ability, then bear art is definitely a cost-effective choice.

If you have any questions about zebra art and bear art, you want to know which is more suitable for your child, namely, Gubi art, art treasure and painting, or you want me to give your baby some suggestions on course selection and collocation.
