Abstract

The research aims at: Employing the QR Code as an effective source for developing the concept of formal narration of artistic civilizations in enriching the decorative painting, and to identify the students' tendency towards the use of the QR Code and the employment of mobile learning in design.

The research was limited to the following limits: Objective limits: using of QR Code Reader 3.4.9 TWMOBIL and the use of barcode reader programs (QR), Adobe Photoshop CS6, and limitation to the formal anecdotal narration of artistic civilizations, and human limits: represented in the research sample number (25) from the students of the fifth year at the Faculty of Art Education, Minia University, who were chosen randomly, and spatial and temporal boundaries: the application took place in the second semester of the academic year 2021/2022.

The research followed the descriptive analytical approach: studying the literature, studies and previous research related to mobile learning and the design of the decorative painting through the method of formal narration of artistic civilizations and the use of the QR Code as an input for teaching the decorative painting. The one-group system, by comparing the pre- and post-application of the group scores in the technical performance test, the evaluation card, and the observation card.

The study found the possibility of employing the QR code in the formal narration of artistic civilizations as an entrance to teaching the decorative painting, and the students' positive attitude towards it and mobile learning in the design of the decorative painting. The study recommended the need to train art education teachers before and during service to employ the QR Code in teaching art education and in teaching decorative design in particular.
