The Impact of a Proposed Instructional Program Based on Image Analysis to Develop Concepts of Non-violence among Upper Basic Stage Students

The current study aims to examine the impact of a proposed instructional program in the field of Visual Arts that relies on image analysis to develop concepts of non-violence among the sample of the study upper basic stage students during the first semester of the academic year 2019/2020. To achieve this purpose, an objective test measuring participants' responses related to concepts of non-violence. The test consisted of (8) paragraphs divided into (4) dimensions: (2) paragraphs on formal analysis, (2) paragraphs on semantic analysis (2), paragraphs on constructive analysis, and (2) paragraphs on semiotic analysis. The sample of the study consisted of (52) students selected from the upper basic stage using a convenient sampling method. They were distributed to two groups: an experimental group of (29) students selected randomly and received the proposed instructional program, and a control group of (23) students received the traditional instructional program. The results of the study revealed a statistically significant difference in the test dimensions (formal analysis, semantic analysis, constructive analysis and semiotic analysis), totally and individually, between the responses of two groups, in favor of the experimental group members. Therefore, the study recommends the employment of this instructional program to develop concepts of non-violence.
