Description
The educational developments in Kosovo have been inevitably influenced by the circumstances of historical, political, and socio-cultural transitions. As e result the educational system operates with many gaps and in particular Art education usually doesn’t prioritize student agency and empowerment. Given the context we need to frequently reflect on our professional activity as artists and the teaching methodologies we use as actors in the education system. By combining counter-formal education forms the aim is to show how teaching artists professional practice and experience can contribute to the advancement of experimental teaching and learning. Drawing on published material with constructivist approach to pedagogy, considering contextualized learning, and sharing empirical perspective, this paper aims to show that the Art teachers owe less to the curriculum of its study program and more to the knowledge and prior experience. The mutual artistic actions and reactions between teachers and students have not only try to change the point of view towards the prevailing formal education in Arts in Kosovo, but also about artists role itself in Art education system. In conclusion, will be presented a case study of the teaching experience with the students of Art and digital media at UBT in Kosovo during the Creative drawing course and Painting course in the period of 2019-2023.

The educational developments in Kosovo have been inevitably influenced by the circumstances of historical, political, and socio-cultural transitions. As e result the educational system operates with many gaps and in particular Art education usually doesn’t prioritize student agency and empowerment. Given the context we need to frequently reflect on our professional activity as artists and the teaching methodologies we use as actors in the education system. By combining counter-formal education forms the aim is to show how teaching artists professional practice and experience can contribute to the advancement of experimental teaching and learning. Drawing on published material with constructivist approach to pedagogy, considering contextualized learning, and sharing empirical perspective, this paper aims to show that the Art teachers owe less to the curriculum of its study program and more to the knowledge and prior experience. The mutual artistic actions and reactions between teachers and students have not only try to change the point of view towards the prevailing formal education in Arts in Kosovo, but also about artists role itself in Art education system. In conclusion, will be presented a case study of the teaching experience with the students of Art and digital media at UBT in Kosovo during the Creative drawing course and Painting course in the period of 2019-2023.
