Audio- Visual Aids: Effective Tool for Enhancing Creative Arts Education among Basic One Learners at Saint Monica's Primary School, Mampong

Abstract: This study examined the effectiveness of audio-visual aids in enhancing Creative Arts education among Basic one Learners at St. Monica’s Primary School in the Mampong Municipality. Using an action research design, the study involved 47 Learners selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through pre- and post-tests, classroom observations, and descriptive statistics including frequencies and percentages. The intervention focused on integrating various audio-visual tools such as videos, slide shows, and pictures into Creative Arts instruction to assess their impact on learners’ creativity, participation, and comprehension. Findings revealed significant improvements across all three domains following the intervention. Creativity scores rose with over half of the learners achieving high post-test scores. Participation levels increased substantially, indicating greater learner engagement, while comprehension scores also improved, suggesting enhanced understanding of artistic concepts. The study concluded that audio-visual aids are effective pedagogical tools for enriching Creative Arts education in early childhood settings. It recommended consistent integration of these resources, targeted teacher training, and the development of resource libraries to support diverse learning styles. Future research should explore the long-term impact of audio-visual aids across subjects and their role in promoting collaborative learning and holistic development.
