A Systematic Literature Review on Teaching Method Using Graphic Design for Primary Schools in Malaysia

Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive review of studies focused on the teaching method using graphic design for primary schools in Malaysia. We used the PRISMA model, with three basic phases including identification, screening, and eligibility, as a guideline to select relevant articles for this paper. All articles were categorised based on three main themes, which are Innovative Teaching Approaches (20 articles), Educational Technology (13 articles), and Global Education Challenges (9 articles). The examination of Innovative Teaching Approaches reveals that integrating graphic design into primary education enhances student engagement, comprehension, and critical thinking skills. The theme of Educational Technology explores the implementation of visual aids and design elements, indicating that technology, when incorporated judiciously, contributes to a more dynamic and effective learning environment. Addressing Global Education Challenges, the review underscores the potential of graphic design to address issues of accessibility and inclusivity in diverse educational settings. Collectively, these themes underscore the significance of incorporating graphic design in primary school teaching methods, offering insights into innovative approaches, the integration of educational technology, and potential solutions to global education challenges.
