Abstract

This article discusses the qualitative research supplementing a three-year (2015-2018) pedagogical experiment carried out in schools in southern Poland. The experiment was based on implementing an innovative visual art education program into the primary school curriculum in grades 1-3. This program the Science-Art-Education Model was created on the basis of international experience from countries such as Slovakia, Slovenia, and Ukraine. The innovative outline of art workshops for children used the assumptions of positive pedagogy and the psychology of happiness affirmation and visualization. This paper presents the results of psychometric and qualitative research that accompanied the quantitative research (children essays and self-portraits) as well as opinions of teachers who carried out the experiment regarding two variables: self-awareness and positive hope.
