The aim of this study is to determine the usefulness of Culturally Responsive Pictorial Module of Nature Tie-Dye Batik Craft for teaching and learning the topic ‘Batik Pelangi’ in Visual Art Education (VAE). The pictorial module was developed using the ADDIE Model that was supported by Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) – Scaffolding by Lev Vygotsky (1978). This study uses the Design Development Research (DDR) approach. The Pictorial Module was evaluated by two expert panels which is one experienced VAE school teacher and one Visual Art senior lecturer at a local university. A purposive sampling consisting of 29 VAE students and one VAE teacher were used in this research to measure their acceptance using the module. Both the responding groups of students and VAE teacher provided positive feedbacks toward learning and teaching using the module. Based on the findings, the Pictorial Module is relevant and appropriate to be implemented at secondary school level for art education in Malaysia.
