First, the significance and importance of the application of information technology in art teaching
(A) the application of information technology in art classes is conducive to stimulating students' interest in learning.
As the saying goes, interest is the best teacher. Interest comes from curiosity, which is inherent in human beings. Interest is the motivation to stimulate students' enthusiasm for learning and the necessary condition to stimulate students' creativity. Primary school students, in particular, often can't keep a good learning state for a long time to listen to the teacher. An important reason for this phenomenon is that the content explained by the teacher failed to arouse students' interest. In teaching, some necessary audio-visual teaching methods are used to directly and intuitively influence students' perceptions through colors, shapes and sounds, so that students have a strong desire to learn. For example, in the teaching of Underwater World, we first show the wonderful creatures in the vast sea with multimedia, and then ask: Do you like it? What shapes are they? Students have different opinions, and the teacher guides students to exchange and discuss freely. When students are thirsty for knowledge, teachers show animations of various creatures in the ocean, so that students can witness and feel the shape, color and mystery of the ocean with their own eyes, stimulate students' desire for further understanding and expression, and really play the role of "hitting waves with stones". Another example: when I was teaching My Sun, I used short fairy tales to lead students into a new understanding of the sun, thus stimulating students' divergent thinking. As a result, the suns painted by the students have their own characteristics, such as colorful suns, suns that love learning, suns that cry, suns that braid their hair, which are really pleasing to the eye. This not only highlights the characteristics of "mind", enhances students' visual effect, enhances the stimulation of signals to students' minds, but also improves students' ability to create interest in learning.
(B) The application of information technology in art classes is conducive to stimulating students' innovative thinking.
The process of art teaching is actually a process in which students learn, explore and think about the solutions to art problems under the guidance of teachers, and then extend and innovate. Therefore, we combine information technology with the subject characteristics of art teaching, so that the expression of teaching is more vivid and intuitive, and the formation process of art thinking is more clearly displayed. For example, when I was studying paper slippers in the second grade, I designed such a multimedia courseware according to the characteristics of this class: "The Little Prince" loves beauty very much and has to change a pair of slippers every day. I want you to design a pair of slippers for him. Are you willing to accept the challenge? He proudly shows you the slippers he is wearing (various slippers and paper slippers are shown in the courseware). Then ask the students, what are these slippers made of? How did they do it? What do you need to make such beautiful paper slippers? Can you share your thoughts with your classmates? What kind of slippers are you going to make for the little prince? Teachers leave students with "blank spots" of thinking, that is, teachers leave students with space to create according to their needs. In this way, multimedia brings colorful life into the classroom, broadens students' horizons, expands students' thinking, and cultivates students' observation ability and creativity.
(C) The application of information technology in the art classroom is conducive to breaking through the teaching difficulties.
It is difficult to form a clear understanding of the key and difficult points in teaching through simple and boring narration. In teaching, the use of audio-visual means, through intuitive pictures, helps students grasp the key content and break through the difficult content. For example, in the teaching of "various lines", the laser light map of the city night scene is displayed on the screen first, and then it is shot into the air from a point through media demonstration. Then, through the dynamic demonstration just now, the difficulty of students' understanding of the concept of straight line is solved, and then a part between the second bright spot and the two bright spots is flashed on the straight line with different colors, so that students can realize that this is a line segment with two endpoints and understand the endpoints more intuitively through flashing; Then by demonstrating that a line segment extends infinitely to both ends to form a straight line; Then, curves, wavy lines and broken lines appear in the same way ... and then these lines are displayed in natural scenes in life. Through a series of dynamic demonstrations, the application of abstract light, line segment, straight line and curve in art is fully demonstrated intuitively.
Practice has proved that some important and difficult points in the teaching content can not achieve the ideal teaching effect with conventional teaching methods, while the teaching effect of CAI courseware is good and the teaching efficiency is obviously improved. For another example, in the lesson "Ants Move", CAI courseware shows the scene of small ants moving in lightning, thunder and dark clouds. This not only breaks through the difficulties, permeates the collective thinking, but also saves time quickly and has good teaching effect.
(D) The application of information technology in art teaching helps to reduce the workload of teachers.
The application of multimedia technology has fundamentally changed teachers' teaching methods. On the one hand, teachers used to write lesson plans with pens, but now they use computers to write lesson plans. On the other hand, teachers need to consult a lot of relevant materials in the process of preparing lessons, and the huge stacks have only limited resources. Moreover, the teacher has to search page by page, turning page by page, which consumes a lot of time for the teacher. Network information provides endless teaching resources for teachers and opens up a shortcut for teachers to carry out teaching activities. As long as you enter the URL in the address bar, you can download the required information in a short time, which greatly saves the time for teachers to prepare lessons. In a word, with the rapid development of computer software technology and the establishment of distance education network, a huge communication space has been created for educators. A large number of practice-oriented software and computer-aided testing software appear, which enables students to consolidate and familiarize themselves with what they have learned in practice and testing. Computer software partially replaces teachers' functions, such as setting questions and evaluating, thus reducing teachers' burden. So far, the role of multimedia information technology as a teaching aid tool has been fully reflected.
