This study explores the inclusion of the visual arts in mathematics instruction as a means of piquing students' interest in a topic that is frequently regarded as difficult. We evaluate numerous research that have been undertaken in this situation by completing an extensive literature study. Our findings show that the inclusion of visual arts in…

K-12 art educators choose many artworks for students to examine and discuss throughout a semester or school year.

This article focuses on developing the idea process in visual art education by using digital peer feedback. In the school subject visual art, the visual idea process, e.g. when students sketch their ideas, is an important phase in a project. When an idea takes form, there is the possibility for considering the idea in a new way, for others to…

High school math projects center on solving real-world examples in a wide variety of situations that require a creative skill set. Creativity in high school mathematics takes place in a subtle form. In contrast, creativity presents itself conspicuously in art. Therefore, this paper will explore the utilization of polynomial equations in drawing…

The study explores the impact of critical reflection on visual communication design teaching for undergraduate programs in Pakistan. Critical reflection is a self-initiated thinking tool with practical implications to improve teaching and professional practices.
