Abstract:

The aim of this study is to investigate whether there is any impact of natural sound backgrounds on artistic production and attitudes toward the art education curriculum among 120 female primary school students in Riyadh's international schools. This study adopted the experimental approach to design two groups (control and experimental) to test the effectiveness of the independent variable (listening to natural sounds in the art education classroom) on the dependent variables (artistic production and attitudes toward the art education curriculum), as indicated by the scores of the two tools.The results showed a positive impact of natural sound backgrounds on some skills in artistic production and attitudes toward the art education curriculum. To achieve beautiful artwork, natural sound backgrounds can be added to classrooms and home environments while students do homework, play, practice arts, and pursue further studies at various levels such as high schools and universities. Additionally, other variables like creative thinking and different socio-economic backgrounds could be examined.
