Abstract

The present study examines the impact of teaching methods based on the critical artistic pedagogy of Giro on the awareness of the citizenship rights of second grade high school students. This research is a quasi-experimental research and the research project used in this study is pre-test-post-test design with control group. The statistical population in this study included all male students in the first year of the second year of high school in district 3 of education in Kermanshah with 459 people in the academic year 1396-97. Sample size Based on the minimum sample size required for experimental research, 60 people (30 people for the experimental group and 30 people for the control group) were determined and selected by the available sampling method. The subjects of the present study included students in the first two grades of the second year of high school, one of whom was selected as the experimental group and the other as the control group. To measure students' awareness of citizenship rights, the Sharifi and Islamic Citizenship Rights Questionnaire (2012) was used. The content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by experts and its internal reliability with Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.92. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 23 software. To analyze the data, descriptive and inferential statistical methods including multivariate analysis of covariance were used. The results of this study showed that the application of the teaching method based on Giro's critical artistic pedagogy is effective in increasing the level of awareness of civil rights, political rights and social rights of students.
