WORKING OUT OF DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS TO DEFINE THE LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT OF ARTISTIC ABILITIES IN SCHOOLCHILDREN BY MEANS OF CHINESE PAINTING

Abstract

The article reveals an important aspect of the development of the artistic and creative abilities of adolescents by means of Chinese painting – the development of diagnostic tools and the initial diagnosis of the quality of students studied. This problem has not been studied enough and requires further research in the theory and practice of art education. One of the important means of developing the artistic and creative abilities of adolescents is considered to be Chinese painting, which, due to its symbolism, interpretation of the same images, has great opportunities for creative expression and development of the artistic and creative abilities of schoolchildren. The article clarifies the concept of “artistic and creative abilities by means of Chinese painting”, on the basis of which development indicators of this quality of adolescents are highlighted. For each indicator, the authors’ diagnostic tasks have been developed. The work describes the practical application (including using digital technology) of diagnostic methods for studying the artistic and creative abilities of adolescents by means of Chinese painting: a testing method, a method of analyzing works of art, and a method of creative tasks.
