GALLERY EDUCATION: HOW GALLERY EDUCATORS APPROACH SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHERS IN GALLERY SETTINGS?
Abstract
This paper is part of an ongoing doctoral study that looks into the approaches employed by gallery educators at Balai Seni Visual Negara (BSVN) in conducting their educational programmes to a number of special education teachers from a school that specialises in special education. As such, the three primary aspects that function as the focus of the study are: i) perceptions of gallery educators upon the expectations of the school principal, the teachers, and the parents; ii) the organization of the programme in BSVN; as well as iii) its impact upon both special education teachers and administrators. Meanwhile, the methods utilised for data collection are interviews, diary entries, observation, and document analysis. In addition, this study adopts the qualitative case study design with the naturalist paradigm. With that, the discussion generated in this paper only emphasises on the early pre-test data derived from one-to-one interview between a gallery educator and a special education teacher.
