How to stimulate junior high school students' interest in art study

Art education is conducive to cultivating students' ability to feel beauty, establishing a correct aesthetic view and cultivating students' ability and passion to create beauty; It is conducive to promoting students' intellectual development and cultivating students' good personality quality. In order to cultivate students' interest in art learning, we follow the intuition, practicality, humanity and enjoyment of art learning, and start with teaching content, teaching methods, teaching atmosphere, homework design and evaluation.

First, the integration of teaching content, rekindle interest

Appropriate increase or decrease in teaching hours and decomposition of important and difficult points are conducive to students' understanding and mastery. The class hours of art textbooks are very limited, and they are basically written in the form of "one lesson and one practice", with a maximum of 3 class hours. If you encounter some professional and rich teaching content, it is inevitable that teaching will be cursory and students' learning will not be implemented. At this time, teachers should take the initiative to adjust the class hours, decompose the important and difficult points, respect the students' cognitive laws, and let students firmly master the knowledge and skills. For example, "Lifestyle" has two classes. The first lesson is to appreciate the patterns in life, understand the structure of a single pattern, and design a single pattern according to materials such as flowers. In the second class, enjoy different decorative patterns, understand the organization forms suitable for patterns, and try to practice the organization forms suitable for patterns. However, I think that although the concept of "mode" is not directly mentioned in the textbook, it is actually mode teaching. If you want to clearly explain how to transform specific images in nature into patterns, formal rules of patterns and other knowledge, two class hours are far from enough. It is also very hasty for the author to arrange the teaching content of this course for three class hours. The first lesson allows students to appreciate the decorative patterns in life, feel the charm of the patterns, guide students to discuss the inspiration sources of these beautiful patterns, and then let students learn the methods and steps from physical sketching to personal pattern design, and try to practice. In the second class, let the students master the skeleton patterns (organizational forms) with double-sided continuous and four-sided continuous patterns, and then draw the double-sided continuous or four-sided continuous patterns by using the individual patterns changed in the last class. In the third class, let the students master the bone pattern suitable for the pattern and draw the pattern on the circular whiteboard. With this design, the first class solved the difficulty of changing the pattern from sketch to painting, the second class solved the organization form of the pattern, and the third class students completed the decorative pattern of the white plate with two continuous and suitable patterns. After in-depth study and full practice, the learning quality of this arrangement is naturally high.

Second, innovative teaching methods to stimulate interest

Carry out comprehensive and inquiry learning to understand the unique contribution of art to life. What the author refers to is to explore the content of synthesis and inquiry in other classes besides the comprehensive inquiry class arranged in the textbook, and to carry out comprehensive and inquiry learning. Knowledge from other disciplines can also be integrated into inquiry. For example, the third lesson of Grade 7, Hand-drawn Chart, should not only have the rigorous accuracy of statistical chart data in mathematics, but also have artistic visual intuition. First, I will show the road traffic map, the trunk structure map and the acupuncture point map of traditional Chinese medicine, so that students can find out the differences from the usual painting, and then compare them with the mathematical statistics map. Through observation, comparison, analysis and other inquiry activities, students can understand that hand-drawn charts illustrate the nature and characteristics of things through the arrangement of images, words and numbers. When designing homework, students are required to investigate the sports that the whole class likes in advance and make statistics. In class, teachers provide icons of various sports, and students can easily complete a statistical chart with rigorous data and intuitive pictures, which has achieved good teaching results and made some boring data and complex content lively and interesting. In the teaching of art comprehensive seeking differences, students' interest in learning is greatly improved.

Third, make good use of multimedia to enhance interest.

The advantages of modern multimedia teaching are obvious, especially the network art resources can make the teaching content more colorful, intuitive and infectious. An appreciation class can display a large number of high-definition works of art, and students are often attracted by the beauty of artistic techniques. For example, when I enjoyed Luo Zhongli's oil painting "Father" in the "Into Art" class, as soon as I printed a high-definition image, the students were impressed by the artist's superb skills. Too much alike! "When we use the electronic whiteboard, we use a powerful interactive system to display every detail and guide students to analyze and experience. This appeal cannot be expressed in words. When teaching variant artistic characters, I can choose different types of pens to write by using electronic whiteboard. I can change the thickness of pens at will, and of course I can add various effects to these characters. This kind of demonstration teaching makes it difficult for students to learn. In the eighth grade woodcut teaching, you can choose a video to demonstrate the steps of woodcut. Choose a few well-known pictures with outstanding themes in the steps, which will help students better understand and master the basic methods and save time. In the exhibition, students can clearly appreciate their classmates' works by using the physical projector, and mutual evaluation is meaningful and targeted. Of course, we should also allow students to complete some art homework on the computer and submit electronic manuscripts. For example, "Patterns in Life" allows students to draw two consecutive and four consecutive patterns on the computer through software. I also allow students to make electronic blackboard newspapers. Making good use of multimedia can enhance students' interest in learning and achieve better teaching results.

Fourth, create an artistic atmosphere and internalize interest.

In order to improve students' interest in art learning, I have organized students to carry out art competitions, exhibitions and art activities many times. On the one hand, it provides students with opportunities to show their talents, and more importantly, it creates an artistic atmosphere, which stimulates students' strong interest in learning and plays a multiplier effect. In addition, in the construction of campus culture, we also pay special attention to the internalization of students' interests, and have opened many exhibition windows in the campus window, so that students can see excellent works exhibitions, blackboard newspapers and publicity columns as soon as they enter the campus. Studying and living in such an atmosphere every day, students are exposed to it, and their interest in learning art is bound to increase day by day, which is internalized into the need of self-growth.

The fifth is to design layered homework to enhance interest.

Teachers do not make the same requirements when assigning homework in class, but design homework at different levels, so that students can choose independently according to their own strengths, levels and preferences. For example, when teaching the sixth lesson "Lotus Out of Water" in Grade 7, I divided my homework into three levels for design. Those with poor first-class foundation only know the knowledge of meticulous painting, and try to express a flower with lines (not necessarily brushes); In the second level, in addition to understanding the knowledge of meticulous painting, you must also copy a flower painting with line drawing; In the third level, in addition to copying a flower, a detailed and colorful work is completed by coloring and rendering.
