Abstract
Culturally responsive pedagogy is developed based on cultural knowledge, the experiences of students from multi-ethnicity, their references and performance in learning. The present research utilizes the Design and Develop method as suggested by Richey and Klein (2007) focusing on the processes of developing a module which is appropriate in the teaching of Visual Arts Education at upper secondary level. The respondents consist of 60 upper secondary students of Malay, Indian, and Chinese ethnicity involved in the implementation process. Results show positive responses from students and their strong optimist perceptions towards Culturally Responsive Traditional Art crafts in Visual Arts Education in Secondary School. Therefore, results obtained proved that there is a need for developing a teaching module that is culturally responsive in teaching and learning of traditional art crafts in Visual Arts Education.
