The study holds implications for educators at colleges, where there is a lack of research on the subject of adult learners in the art education field. Research illustrates that the characteristics of college students and the influences of artist-teachers’ artistic expressions to their college students are necessary in order to understand how art educators influence students in colleges as adult learners. This qualitative paper contains images and narratives of students’ artworks and frames investigation into topics related to college students’ learning with artist-teachers. The research addresses adult learning theories to understand students in higher education, and examines literature about Transformative Learning Theory and other adult education theories, specifically concerning influences of education for college students to explore educational implications for artists’ learning situations. Art educators at the college level may consider referring to the effective methods used in the college programs discussed in this research to improve their programs for adult learners. This ongoing study has implications for artist-educators at colleges and suggests that artists’ voices can expand critical thinking and provide artistic insights for changing curriculum and pedagogy for college level students.

소개
한국의 미술교육학계에는 과거 일본을 통해 왜곡되어 들어온 서양의 미술교육 이론이 정설로 자리잡힌 상태에서 서양의 새로운 미술교육 이론이 혼합되는 양상이 지속되고 있다. 그래서 효율적인 실제의 개발 또한 지극히 어려운 답보 상태에 머물러 있다. 따라서 미술교육의 학문적 발전을 이룩하기 위해서는 선진 세계의 이론을 정확하게 받아들여 이를 통해 한국의 실정에 맞게 변용해야 할 것이라는 판단하에 미술교육의 학문적 발전을 도모하기 위해 InSEA(International Society for Education through Art)의 한국지회를 설립하게되었다. InSEA는 UNESCO의 협력기구로 1954년 결성되어 현재 80여개국이 참여하고 있는 범세계적인 미술교육 단체로 미국 지회인 USSEA와 캐나다 지회인 CSEA를 두고 있다.
