Research Summary: Art-Based Multi-Gogy for peace education in education 6.0: a framework for creative, collaborative, and ethical digital

A conceptual framework, Art-Based Multi-Gogy, is proposed to address the evolving needs of peace education in the context of 'Education 6.0'. This framework aims to integrate art-based education with peace education, learner agency, peer collaboration, and digital learning to foster creative, collaborative, and ethical digital engagement. It seeks to equip students with the skills to navigate complex global challenges such as geopolitical conflict, social inequality, and digital misinformation.

Why it matters

This framework offers a novel approach to peace education, which is crucial for fostering global citizenship and conflict resolution skills in an increasingly interconnected and volatile world. It addresses the need for educational systems to adapt to rapid technological change and complex societal challenges by integrating diverse pedagogical approaches.

Key insights

• Traditional, teacher-centered moral instruction is insufficient for contemporary peace education needs.
• Peace education requires creative, collaborative, and future-oriented approaches to address current global complexities.
• Art-based education inherently promotes empathy, emotional expression, intercultural understanding, and dialogue, but is often disconnected from other educational domains.
• The Art-Based Multi-Gogy framework unifies art education, peace education, learner agency, peer collaboration, and digital learning.
• The framework targets 'Education 6.0' requirements for navigating geopolitical conflict, cultural polarization, social inequality, and digital misinformation.
• It aims to develop students' capacities to interpret, imagine, negotiate, and communicate peaceful possibilities.
