- Abstract
Researches on music education for young learners are generally uncorrelated with children’s culture due to the separation between music education and the culture embodied in it. This study aims to investigate 1) children’s cultures, 2) adult’s arts and cultures, 3) roles of art education in shaping children’s creativity, and 4) teacher’s competence in teaching art education based on children’s culture. Data in this study are collected from elementary students age 8-9 years old in correlation to the Art Education subject. Using a qualitative descriptive research design, this research yields 6 forms of children’s culture (age 8-10 years old) including children’s individuality and social life, children’s relationship with adults, game with multiple toys, games involving movements and sports, imaginative and ritual games, and toys such as horse-like toys and car toys. Overall, there are only 28% of original children’s culture found during the observation, indicating the domination of adult’s culture towards children’s game culture. Moreover, it is also discovered that teachers lack of understanding on children’s cultures and integrated games. A concept of ideal music education practice needs to be invented in order to effectively reach music education goals for elementary schools.
