Diplomsko delo z naslovom RAZLIKE MED VRTCI NA PODEŽELJU IN V MESTU S PODROČJA LIKOVNE DEJAVNOSTI v teoretičnem delu predstavlja vlogo in pomen likovne vzgoje v predšolskem obdobju ter Kurikulum za vrtce, kot dokument, ki predstavlja strokovno podlago za delo v vrtcu. Podrobno so razčlenjena področja likovne dejavnosti ter ploskovne likovne tehnike. Temu sledijo teme in motivi, ki se pojavljajo v okviru likovne dejavnosti. V nadaljevanju je predstavljen razvoj likovnega izražanja v predšolskem obdobju ter razvoj ustvarjalnosti. V empiričnem delu diplomske naloge so predstavljeni rezultati ocenjevalnih listov pridobljenih iz enajstih mestnih in desetih podeželskih vrtcev po Sloveniji. Namen ocenjevalnih listov je bil, ugotoviti ali se pojavljajo kakšne razlike med vrtci v mestu in na podeželju s področja likovne dejavnosti. Rezultati so pokazali, da se med vrtci ne pojavljajo večje razlike, pokazalo pa se je nekaj razlik na posameznih področjih.The thesis titled DIFFERENCES BETWEEN KINDERGARTENS IN RURAL AND URBAN AREAS IN THE FIELD OF ART ACTIVITIES depicts in the theoretical part the role and importance of art education in preschool period, and also the kindergarten curriculum, a document which presents the technical basis for work in kindergartens.
