Abstract

This paper emphasizes on the quality of human and non-human resources of art educational institutions in India. The quality of art education is assessed by both observational method as well as empirical analysis. The tools and techniques used are; Delphi techniques along with mean, standard deviation and t-test. In the process of analysis this paper found that there are certain interesting findings which include: art considered as a noncore subject, difference in the opinion of stakeholders about quality of human and non human resources and many delays in recruitment process. Contribution to the field: In the present scenario, it is suggested the Government should allocate monetary provisions sufficiently. The attitude towards art and craft teacher should be amicable and considered that he is a member in teaching community. Art has no boundaries and the faculties can make sure that the art should not be concentrated in one place and they can create an art world for promoting younger generations.
