Increasing students’ environmental attitude through Visual and Performance Ar...INNS PUBNET
Visual and performance arts are effective media of communicating environmental and ecological issues. The need for effective communication to increase collective action and environmental attitude of students is the most pressing in the context of deteriorating environment. To assess the effectiveness of visual and performance arts as media of increasing environmental attitude of students, this study was conducted. It employed experimental research design. The participants of the study were the randomly sampled college students taking up MAPEH courses in one campus of a state university in region 02, Philippines. Result of the study showed that employing visual and performance arts learning activities are interesting. Ultimately, the used of visual and performance arts learning activities significantly increased the environmental attitude of students along attitude towards nature enjoyment, support for conservation policies, human utilization of nature, and attitude towards personal conservation behavior. Allowing the students to be exposed to the different environmental-based visual and performance arts learning activities where their direct learning experience is involved significantly increased their environmental construct. Further, the results reveal that both visual and performance-based learning activities developed positive environmental attitudes, greater environmental awareness, increased knowledge and understanding of nature, and are more likely to participate in environmental stewardship activities.
The learning teaching process has undergone a paradigm shift in recent years. It has shifted from teacher centred to student centred. Hence, the challenge of a teacher has become as to how to cater to the needs of all types of learners in the classroom when their learning styles vary according to their individual needs. Heutagogy is a technique of self-determined learning with practices and principles rooted from andragogy that could be responsible for the developments in higher education. This technique coupled with e-content is an innovative strategy that provides multi-sensory experience to the learners. The learners can visualize the entire content and attain mastery over the topics. In the present study, the e-content on osmosis was developed and given to the tertiary learners for learning. Pre-test and post-test were administered to the samples to ascertain the effectiveness of heutagogy integration into e-content. The results of the study revealed that e-content with heutagogical approach for learners of higher education were effective.

Effects of Active Learning Strategies in Teaching Physicsijtsrd
The study utilized a quasi experimental method of the pretest posttest design with the pre selected groupings for the control and experimental groups. The study used validated researcher constructed pretest posttest questionnaires, online distance learning plans, attitude surveys, and focus group discussion questionnaires to determine the students performance. The study was conducted at a private high school in Cebu City. Both experimental and control groups underwent a pretest before implementing the proposed interventions. The studys findings showed the following results a both control and experimental groups manifested Above Average performance in the pretest and posttest b there was a significant mean improvement in the student’s performance in Physics in both experimental and control groups c there was no significant difference in the mean improvement in Physics between the experimental and control groups, and d the experimental group showed a very positive level of attitude towards the use of active learning strategies in teaching Physics. Based on the findings of the study, the integration of active learning strategies to the group with less teacher presence acts only as facilitator proved to be as effective as the group who received explicit teaching from the teacher in teaching Physics. In addition, it did not only enhance the students’ performance as manifested by their comparable performance with the other group but was also influential in developing a positive attitude that affected their performance. The theories of Direct Instruction by Siegfried Engelmann and Douglas Carnine believe that teacher centered teaching strategies are effective in teaching Physics since the teacher explicitly teaches and helps the students understand the lessons. Constructivism Learning by Jean Piaget states that involving the students actively and exposing them to activities that will engage them in the teaching and learning process by interacting with their actual experiences were confirmed by this studys findings. The study advises curriculum designers to provide several active learning activities that encourage student engagement and participation and apply dynamic teaching techniques in Physics instruction. Additionally, to help them overcome the challenge, students should be offered various learning methodologies, and future researchers should conduct a comparative study on face to face training.

Using Visual Aids to Enhance Third Year Undergraduate Teacher Trainee Student...Premier Publishers
There is a plethora of teaching strategies that are espoused by the science teacher to attain his/her lesson objectives. Researchers have over the years found most of these methods, the tactics used by teachers in teaching, to be effective in teaching science concepts to learners. However, research has not ascertained which one teaching strategy is most effective in imparting knowledge to learners. This study seeks to find an appropriate teaching strategy that will arouse the interest and participation of students in the teaching and learning process. Visual aids were employed as the main intervention strategy. A total of one hundred third year undergraduate teacher trainees from the University of Education, Winneba, Ghana constitute the research sample. The participants were put into experimental and control groups. Tests and questionnaires were the main instruments used to collect data for analysis. Data collected were analyzed quantitatively using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, SPSS. The study found that the academic achievement of the students in the experimental group improved tremendously after the intervention, as opposed to that of their counterparts in the control group. The study concludes with the recommendation that visual aids should be used to teach concepts of science that are abstract in nature in order to make the lesson real to the learners.

The studys findings showed the following results a both control and experimental groups manifested Above Average performance in the pretest and posttest b there was a significant mean improvement in the student’s performance in Physics in both experimental and control groups c there was no significant difference in the mean improvement in Physics between the experimental and control groups, and d the experimental group showed a very positive level of attitude towards the use of active learning strategies in teaching Physics. Based on the findings of the study, the integration of active learning strategies to the group with less teacher presence acts only as facilitator proved to be as effective as the group who received explicit teaching from the teacher in teaching Physics. In addition, it did not only enhance the students’ performance as manifested by their comparable performance with the other group but was also influential in developing a positive attitude that affected their performance. The theories of Direct Instruction by Siegfried Engelmann and Douglas Carnine believe that teacher centered teaching strategies are effective in teaching Physics since the teacher explicitly teaches and helps the students understand the lessons. Constructivism Learning by Jean Piaget states that involving the students actively and exposing them to activities that will engage them in the teaching and learning process by interacting with their actual experiences were confirmed by this studys findings. The study advises curriculum designers to provide several active learning activities that encourage student engagement and participation and apply dynamic teaching techniques in Physics instruction. Additionally, to help them overcome the challenge, students should be offered various learning methodologies, and future researchers should conduct a comparative study on face to face training.

The rife of technology nowadays hugely influences the way various disciplines are taught and learned in the classroom, and Science is no exemption to that. Cognizant of this, the present study aimed to investigate the impact of integrating the PhET simulations through online synchronous and asynchronous teaching of science on the learner’s science process skills. A total of 60 Grade 8 learners of Sto. Niño National High School were purposively chosen according to their learning abilities and were randomly grouped into two the online synchronous group and asynchronous group. Applying the two group pre test and post test design model, the study utilized a validated test questionnaire along with a validated self made survey questionnaire. Obtained post test achievement results have revealed the positive effect of integrating PhET simulation in online synchronous and asynchronous teaching of Grade 8 Science in distance learning. Furthermore, no significant difference was deduced between the two teaching methods with a P value of .057 which signifies the two teaching methods viability in the teaching of Science integrated with PhET simulation. Moreover, this study concludes that PhET simulation improves the learners’ science process skills as perceived by the learners. The learners’ agreement rate of both groups is high in the statement items in the perceptual questionnaire. Thereby, the study highly recommends the integration of PhET simulation in the teaching of Science to make teaching and learning more engaging, interactive and effective in this era of massive technological advancement.

Using Visual Aids to Enhance Third Year Undergraduate Teacher Trainee Student...Premier Publishers
There is a plethora of teaching strategies that are espoused by the science teacher to attain his/her lesson objectives. Researchers have over the years found most of these methods, the tactics used by teachers in teaching, to be effective in teaching science concepts to learners. However, research has not ascertained which one teaching strategy is most effective in imparting knowledge to learners. This study seeks to find an appropriate teaching strategy that will arouse the interest and participation of students in the teaching and learning process. Visual aids were employed as the main intervention strategy. A total of one hundred third year undergraduate teacher trainees from the University of Education, Winneba, Ghana constitute the research sample. The participants were put into experimental and control groups. Tests and questionnaires were the main instruments used to collect data for analysis. Data collected were analyzed quantitatively using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, SPSS. The study found that the academic achievement of the students in the experimental group improved tremendously after the intervention, as opposed to that of their counterparts in the control group. The study concludes with the recommendation that visual aids should be used to teach concepts of science that are abstract in nature in order to make the lesson real to the learners.
Self-Efficacy, Scientific Reasoning, and Learning Achievement in the STEM Pro...Nader Ale Ebrahim
The main goal of education is to prepare students for future job opportunities and civic responsibilities, and this is one of the biggest challenges in the 21st century. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Project-Based Learning (PjBL) prepare students to master their new role as a global citizen with greater responsibilities. This systematic review analyzed 265 papers that are related to the STEM PjBL. The papers were collected from well-known databases such as Web of Science® and SCOPUS by using the quality assessment and relevant criteria. This study inspected the top 48 distinguished papers by covering three dimensions, Search result, Subject, and Research methodology. STEM and PjBL come together, due to the natural overlap between the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and PjBL. The fully integrated STEM with PjBL can increase the effectiveness of teaching. Nonetheless, this inspection uncovered that previous research has not fully integrated STEM with PjBL. Thus, despite the wealth of existing research, there are still significant opportunities for future research on STEM PjBL in high schools to prepare students for 21st century challenges.

This study investigated the association between teaching approaches in Biology and STEM careeraspiration of upper secondary school students and how to apply in learning and teaching. In this research, we analyzed some teaching approaches in Biology which would actively improve students’ subject interest as well as their STEM career aspiration in upper secondary schools in Hanoi and some Northern provinces
of Vietnam and supposed suggestions for teachers use in their teaching approaches and teaching methods to promote the effectiveness of science-oriented teaching in their lectures. Analysis of science learning in Vietnam in this study highlighted that teaching the ‘applications of science’ and teaching ‘the relevance of study and career’ were measured teaching approaches to consistently and positively associated with upper
secondary school students’ STEM career aspiration, accounting for other teaching approaches. Additionally, in this study, the ‘student-led investigations’ indirectly associated with students’ STEM career aspiration by affecting on affected student’s career awareness and student’s science self-efficacy. However,
the project-based approach had no obvious effect on students’ STEM career aspiration.
This document discusses optimizing the scientific approach through outdoor learning based on a school yard.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

MARSHALL JAMES P. DANTIC, MAEd
President Ramon Magsaysay State University
ABSTRACT: In todays’ educational predicament, innovative pedagogies must also conducted. To innovate, one
must develop. Scientific numeric data could only be reimagined through visual arts. Students have difficulty
explaining and many conceptions towards astronomy. This mixed-method educational action research design
assesses the dilemma and determine its effects towards learning. The participants are a total of 30 first year BSED
Students who are taking astronomy as their major subject. Two instruments were utilized in gathering data,
including: assessment test composing of 100 items question and structured interview guide. Based from the findings,
it concludes: after the application of intervention, the STEs are outstanding; there is significant difference between
the pre-test and post-test; there are 4 forms of visual arts produced, painting, digital art, diorama and drawing;
there are 7 themes emerged, includes (a)Unleashing Creativity; (b) Enhancing Visualization; (c) Understanding
Made Easier; (d) Positively Affecting Metacognition; (e) Learning Easily; (f) Memorizing Easily; and (g)
Developing Critical Thinking. The study recommends implementation of the intervention in astronomy discipline;
develop and explore more forms of visual arts approach that can be implemented in the course; utilize the
intervention to make the concepts in astronomy be more easier to understand.

I. INTRODUCTION
In this time of pandemic, the educational system has been greatly disrupted and experienced a desperate
and sudden shifting from the traditional conventional class into online distance learning. It changed the whole
pedagogical practices that teachers and students had been accustomed decades before. Now, that many of our known
pedagogies are not effective, unique and feasible pedagogies must be tried and conducted.
For change to exist, humans must know to develop. Artists discern and present various perspective and
designs through creative visuals. Scientist sees and perceive viewpoints in a systematic, organized research
evidences through meticulous hypotheses and testing. As Jones (2016) stated, thatthere is a direct relationship
between science and art.Because scientific perception could be seen through visual arts. Like looking at a nebula and
see a majestic visual.” Through this, arts enhance creative thinking which is superbly essential in problem – solving
skills which the science students ultimately needed.
According to Rupert (2006) that those of engage in learning visual arts, heighten the achievements in other
aspects of learning and life. When visual arts coalesce with science education, the 21st
century teaching may
undergone a huge metamorphosis shifting from human to mechanical labor based from human passion and
innovation. When Problems emerge, it could be solved through the application combined arts and science (Izadi,
2017).
As a Science Education Student and future teacher, the essential components to have are; perseverance,
awareness, resourcefulness, excitement, openness, passion and acceptance to fail which Visual Artists and Scientists
possessed. Creativity and imagination, inspiration, perseverance, and passion are required for good teachers to have
(Green &Tsodikova, 2018).
Aside from the essentials to be possessed, it has also affects learning. Findings in the study of Goldberg
(2005) revealed that “Through metacognition, a visual artists could process, strategize and create a solution to a
problem, which is undeniably done by the students.” That means that students doing art more like affected and
elevate their thinking process and have a positive impact on learning. The students who utilize visual arts have
significantly improved their academic performance (Punzalan, 2018).

Multidisciplinary Journal www.ajmrd.com Page | 13
According to De Greve (2009) that Astronomy discipline is fascinating. Subject with fascination of the
mysterious and beyond reach. Though, mechanisms, concepts and grasps accross fundamental sciences were
utilized. With its foundations in Mathematics and Physics, it is a discipline that stretched horizontally across
different fields: Biological Sciences, Social Sciences, Earth Sciences, and Technology (Garcia, 2009).
According to Shan (2016), “In astronomy, the data from most of the breakthroughs are just numerical
figures and graphs. For the general public to comprehend, the artists‟ ability to generate visualization is extremely
significant. The visualization such as photos, diagrams, and materialized models have always been essential tools in
teaching. The formation of visualizations proves importance in the learning process, especially in science (Gilbert,
Reiner &Nakhleh, 2008).
According to the results of a study by Canlas (2013) revealed that university students possess cross multi
conceptions along the specific astronomical phenomena and concepts. Though, these students have studied this from
primary to tertiary curriculum, they have experienced difficulty explaining the everyday astronomical phenomena In
summary, among these students, there is a huge gap with limited knowledge and several misconception existing in
the conceptual understanding in astronomy. Therefore, it is recommended to address these dilemma (Trumper,
2000).
The study aims to assess how visual art approach in astronomy subject may fruit the Bachelor of Secondary
Education Major in General Science students in acquiring and understanding astronomy concepts.
Conceptual Framework
In pursuant R.A. 7722 with the mandate of CHED, education shall: “promote and exercise a relevant and
quality education, guarantee and protect academic freedom for continuing intellectual growth, advancement of
learning and research.” An interdisciplinary project of seemingly dissimilar subject matter, arts and science, has
enormous pedagogical value (Needle et.al. 2007).
The figure presents the conceptual paradigm. After assessing the level of academic performance of the STE
students before the application of intervention, Visual Arts Approach had implemented. During the application of
the intervention, visual arts products were developed by the students through series of various activities. After the
application of the intervention, the level of academic performance was assessed; and the effects are determined
through structured interview.
II. METHODOLOGY
The study utilized a mixed-method action research design with assessment tests and structured interview
guide as the main instruments in gathering the required data. There are thirty (30) STE students served as
Figure 1. Paradigm of the Study
3. Sci-Art: Visual art approach in Astronomy of teacher education students
Multidisciplinary Journal www.ajmrd.com Page | 14
participants and purposive sampling is implemented. The assessment tool was validated by science and technical
specialists. There are two tools used in gathering data: first is the assessment tool composing of 100 items test
questions; and second is structured interview guide composing of one question: What is the effect of Visual Arts
Approach in the Learning Process?
III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
Student’s Level of Knowledge before the Intervention
The level of knowledge of STE students in Astronomy prior to the conduct of Visual Arts Approach was reflected
by the result of their diagnostic/Pre-test.
The Pre-test was composed of forty (100) items. It was used in gathering information and identifying the strengths
and weaknesses of STE students. It was administered to evaluate the level of students‟ domain of learning. Class
scores were described using frequency distribution and percentages.
Table 1 shows the frequency and percentage distribution of the respondents scores in 100 items pre-test
given by the researcher. There are two (2) participants or 7% did not meet expectation. Twenty-two (22) participants
or 73% of the class were Fairly Satisfactory. While, Six (6) or 20% were satisfactory. The overall mean is 40.4 with
an standard deviation of 10.75. In summary, before the intervention of strategy, most of the students had fairly
satisfactory level of knowledge and still need improvement.
According to the study of Balfour &Khonle (2016) revealed that misinterpretations remain at higher levels
of education, and that the new knowledge may be integrated into their previous beliefs without a notable
conceptual change.

According to the study of Buxner, Impey, Romine and Neiberding (2018) to be an educated consumer, one
must have good foundation and evaluation ability towards science knowledge. The course introductory astronomy
offers greater possibility to heighten the basic science knowledge and information literacy.

Visual Arts Produced
There are difference visual arts produced during the implementation of the intervention. These are as
follows:
Painting. The produced visual arts where pigments of different colors are combined/ mixed and applied by different
materials; brush, fingers, and pencils. Students painted galaxies, stars, planets etc.
Digital Art. The produced visual art where it was produced through the utilization of digital technology. Commonly
used was photoshop and publisher to make, edit, customize a photo of celestial body based on their imagination.
Diorama. The produced visual arts was a 3 – dimensional miniature size model. Solar System and Earth‟s layer
we‟re modelled.
Drawing. The produced visual arts where different instruments where used to draw in a paper a one or two
dimensional model. Materials can be used are colored or lead pencil, graphite pencil, ballpen. Students draw
Kepler‟s planetary motion etc.
Effects of Visual Arts Approach in the Learning Process
Theme 1: Unleashing Creativity
Creativeness and visual art skills are truly important for a teacher. It gives liveliness and color to the
teaching process. According to the study of Schlegel et. Al. (2015) “A group of undergraduate students who were
given introductory painting or drawing lessons showed improved creative thinking, better ability to draw from
observation and changes in the brain's white matter compared to students who were taking introductory organic
chemistry classes.”
A notable response mentioned that visual arts offers opportunity to improve creativeness.one participant
(STES01) stated,
“Visual arts in astronomy affects my learning process because it gives an opportunity for me to improve my
creativity and skills in making visual arts, even if I don‟t have interest in drawing”
Generating creative ideas makes people do out-of-the-box solutions in any problems. A related statement
was also said by one of the participant (STES08), “Applying visual art in astronomy helps me to improve my
memory, concentration and art skills.” Unleashing creativeness improves the cognitive processes. It leads to growth
towards innovation. Science Educators can also bring about change and innovation into the system, which goes
outside the conventional ways and then improves over time (Rogayan&Dantic, 2021).

Taking risks for striving excellence are what top notch free thinkers with a creative learning mindset are
doing. With constructive coaching, these learners may contribute solutions to the globe and create bridges to real life
experiences through arts. (Morse, 2017).
Theme 2. Enhancing Visualization
According to Vermirovsky (2013) In astronomy, Visualization is a procedure of generating an imagery out
of numerical and graphical form. It served as tool to hasten the comprehension of concepts. And based from actual
experiences, STE students experienced that. One of the participant (STES17) stated that “Knowing that astronomy
involves more of visual materials in learning,it helps learner to visualize the topics easily.” With images, especially
if personally created, leads to thorough understanding and meaning of the context. A participant (STES02) also
emphasized that visual arts in teaching is extremely helpful. “Visual arts approach in astronomy is very helpful
because we were able to visualize the concept and gain a deeper understanding on it.” During the crafting, every
single detail of the concept were deeply analyzed and synthesized on how it can be presented in the canvas. So, it
justifies that visualization can bea bridge that connects the art and science (Sanual, 2013).
Theme 3. Understanding Made Easier.
According to Shabiralyaniet. Al. (2015) that appropriate visuals facilitates efficient learning environment.
Having this environment, the development and personal understanding may be heightened in the gray areas of
learning. Visuals helps us to easily understand concept because a huge part of the human‟s brain is focused on visual
processing. A human mind process visuals at superfast speed. And give a meaning in a very short time (Balm,
2014).
In relation to it, a participant (STES15) stated that “The experience of creating my own version of the concept using
own art style greatly helps in understanding complicated ideas in astronomy.” A cliché‟ says that “A picture tells a
thousand words.” Every detail in the visual the students have crafted, gives them deeper meaning and enlighten the
truth behind the context. It is true to every visual artists. It was experienced by a participant (STES07), “I‟m a visual
learner student. We have no chance to witness the celestial objects live. Some students, find hard to visualize
everything just by their own thought or idea. So, visual arts in astronomy makes it easier for to know and understand
every topic.” If artists are immersed in the crafting process, a deep appreciation towards the concept will be formed.
The utilization of visual representations are important practice among science fields. Through this, it paved
way where communications and interactions among scientists been possibly easier and multiplied ways (Evagorou,
Erduran&Mantyla, 2015).
Table 4. Effects of Visual Arts Approach in the Learning Process
Theme Sample Significant Statement Theme Description
1. Unleashing
Creativity
Visual arts in astronomy affects my learning
process because it gives an opportunity for me to
improve my creativity and skills in making visual
arts, even if I dont have interest in drawing.
(STES01)
This focuses on the learners presents
and maximize their creativities on the
unfamiliar fields of visual arts
towards sciences.
2. Enhancing
Visualization
Knowing that astronomy involves more of visual
materials in learning, it helps learner to visualize
the topic easily. (STEST17)
This theme pertains how this
approach push them to heighten their
visualizations that greatly help them
understanding the concepts.
3. Understanding
made easier
The experience of creating my own version of the
concept using own art style greatly helps in
understanding complicated ideas in astronomy.
(STES15)
This pertains how visual arts
approach assists and boosts students‟
understanding concepts.
4. Positively
Affecting
Metacognition
Visual arts approach can affect in our learning by
how to interpret, criticize, and use visual
information, and how to make choices based on
the given output. (STES19)
This pertains the evolution of science
learning, and touch the higher levels
of cognitive taxonomy.
5. Learning Easily Visual arts approach in astronomy affect my
learning processing a way that it became easy for
me to recall relevant things regarding to our
This pertains to the transformation of
complexity to simplicity of learning
astronomy concept.

topic. (STES05)
6. Memorizing
Easily
Also, for the learners, focusing time on creating
visual arts representing a certain topic on
astronomy helps learners to remember the topic
more easily. (STES17)
These theme suggests how visual arts
approach offers enhancement
towards memory cognitive process.
7. Developing
Critical
Thinking
It is very challenging for me because I‟m not that
good in visual arts. But with this, it made me
think critically due countless visualization on
how to present the astronomy topic through
visual arts. (STES16)
This focuses on how the process of
art crafting be related to critical
thinking.
Theme 4. Positively Affecting Metacognition
According to Moore (2013) stated that through arts, cognitive strategies may be efficiently implemented
which offers opportunity for learners to assimilate and exhibit they indeed learn.A notable response from one of the
participants (STES19) stated that, “Visual arts approach can affect in our learning by how to interpret, criticize, and
use visual information, and how to make choices based on the givenoutput.” Related response was also stated,
“Through visual arts, my cognition on a certain topic was enhanced. Using sketch pads and other art materials, I
recreated different concepts of astronomy which helped me in mastering them unto a higher level(STES20).
With the findings of Goldberg (2005) it revealed that throughout the entire art making process,
metacognition were used by every students. Because, if art served as representation of learning, then their thinking
should manifest in the art form (Moore, 2013).
Theme 5: Learning Easily
One of the effects visual arts approach is that making learning easier. According to Khan (2017) that
learning is directly related to arts and crafts.Visual arts achievement affects students‟ academics. The more a learner
gives effort to something, the more benefits they may gain from it, sense of appreciation, realization and
achievement. By feeling all these, it means that individual has learned. A participant (STES05) that this approach
positively affects them, “Visual arts approach in astronomy affects my learning process in a way that it became easy
for me to recall relevant things regarding to our topic.” Many things may experience during the crafting process of
visual arts. Just the thought on how celestial phenomena or space events be presented in a creative manner using
specific medium may push them to study eagerly. For example, they created a diorama of the space explorations,
they research more, study every details, conceptualize it, analyze and synthesize every component of the diorama
and lastly execute the crafting process. During that time, they have experienced in many stages that made them learn
more than the textual information. The same statement was reiterated by most of the respondents. “As a Visual
Learner, I‟ll be able to make learning easier.(STES03)” It is evident that,if visual arts skills improve that learning
skills also improve. They are more suitable at adapting skills and so they learn faster than the non-visual artists
(Khan, 2017).
Theme 6. Memorizing Easily
According to the study of Bushman(2012) it revealed that it is easier to retrieve and remember information
through the help of visual cues. When a learner make an effort to put into an art work, it will make an imprint into
their minds. A person who constantly working and thinking on a certain project may not easily forget the details and
the process. Therefore, with visual arts, the memorization of the students towards the topic greatly increases. One
participant (STES17) revealed about it, “Also, for the learners, focusing time on creating visual arts representing a
certain topic on astronomy helps learners to remember the topic more easily.” When the students working on their
craft for astronomy, they researched, review, analyzed and synthesize each information to have a precise
conceptualization when they put it into art. So every details will have a deep impression about them, that may create
every detail a certain visuals about it for them to easily remember. Another participant (STES11) emphasized it,
“When I am working with my activities, in the long time, I unconsciously make a mental picture out of it. So,
whenever that picture crosses into my mind I easily remember the concept in astronomy.” Words are abstract. It
was also proven, that the learners exerts effort to create visual associations have better recall (Bushman, 2012).
Theme 7. Developing Critical Thinking
According to Uddin, Shimizu &Widiyatmoko(2019) that in this age of science and technology society,
learners must have possessed the 21st
century skills, especially critical thinking skills. A study of Nusbaum& Silvia
(2011)revealed that an individualhad high fluid reasoning, an ideaconnected to critical thinking, are better in
generating creative ideas, and can gain more from strategies that encourage creative thinking. Like a participant said,

“Through visual arts, the lessons been inculcated in my mind. The images last on my mind longer than texts.”
STES13 and another said “It is very challenging for me because I‟m not that good in visual arts. But with this, it
made me think critically due countless visualization on how to present the astronomy topic through visual arts.”
STES16.
