Publikacja recenzowana / Peer-reviewed publicationIn the article the authors discuss the practical implementation of the model work with
a plastically gifted child “Science – Art – Education”, founded at the end of 2013. As a result
of implementation of the international research project. The resulting model, from the
theoretical point of view, has been described in the scientifi c monograph edited by J. Aksman:
Science – Art – Education. Innovative model of diagnosis, methods and forms of
work and care for plastically gifted children. This model shows the importance of science
in early school education through art, based on the innovative combination of art education
and health education of children in grades 1–3 of primary school. The consequence
of this combination is the intention of the authors of the project to shape life skills of the
mentioned children. Theoretically reasoned innovative model Science – Art – Education
(SAE) was extremely important but the initial stage of the work. Another one, which has
now been adopted and which is described in the article – is associated with a wider than
before application of this innovative model – with an attempt of its implementation in
everyday practice of art lessons with pupils in early school age. This task involves a further, currently implemented on a research project The eff ectiveness of the model of work
with a plastically gifted child “Science – Art – Education” in the three-year cycle of lessons
(WPiNH/DS/5/2015) directed by J. Aksman. The attempts to further applications of
the Innovative Model into daily teaching practice and forms of its popularization are very
important and they are described in this article:
