Academic drawing and differentiated teaching is seen in the article as a mean to fight
stagnation in art education. The aim of the study is to theoretically prove and experimentally test a
differentiated model of academic drawing training course intended to enhance the quality of
educational drawings and reduce the subjective feeling that the learning process has stopped for
students. Within the framework of theoretical part, a content analysis of iodomestic and foreign
literature covering over 2000-2025 was conducted. on the difficulties of differentiated teaching,
academic drawing and the deadlock of art education, consequently providing the foundation to justify conceptual framework and research gap where explained as no integrated models have been
developed for differentiated academic drawing. The empirical part was realized in the form of a
pedagogical quasi-experiment with control and experimental groups (with 64 students; all together
coming from the field of art, pedagogy or design) for one semester. In the experimental group, a
structured model (bachelor-thesis: Gerecke 2012) of differentiated learning was applied – input
diagnostics, level trajectories, alternative tasks in complexity and acting algorithm, personal
support and reflection. The results indicate that there is statistically significant improvement of the
educational drawing's quality in terms of the proportionateness criterion, constructives, spatial
solution, tonal consistency and art expressiveness by comparison with students of the control group
as when determining a relative increase this index is greater than at other students with low level of
original preparation. However, at the same time there is a heightened interest in academic drawing,
confidence in one‘s skills and eagerness to try out something new and a decline of stagnation. The
conclusion is made that differentiated training by the systematic model for planning academic
drawing courses is a way forward to overcome stagnation in art education and can become a
methodological pilot-project for reformation of artistic and pedagogical training.
