Summary:
|
The District's Educational Services Department has recommended updates in our district-wide course catalog. When a course is discovered to need to be updated, the department team must work together to bring the course of study current. The VAPA courses of Art I and Art II were revised to meet the current Art Standards and to update the instructional materials to align with the course. The revised versions of the two courses were completed in 2020. Due to the challenges associated with remote work and obtaining necessary signatures while working from home, they were not submitted to the school board at the time and are now being submitted. No changes have been made, and no new standards have been released. These courses meet the UC/CSU requirements for "F" Visual and Performing Arts. Art I is designed to provide a foundation for advanced courses, such as Art II, III, and AP Studio, and satisfies the Visual Art Graduation and A-G requirement. An emphasis will be placed on understanding the Elements of Art and Principles of Design as a basis for composition. The student's work will reflect personal, cultural, and historical context. Students will explore a variety of artists, techniques, art processes, mediums, and materials, such as painting, drawing, three-dimensional design, and printmaking. Art II is an extension of Art 1 and a preparation class for Art 3. Art 2 is a course designed for serious art students who want to continue studying art after high school or for students who may be interested in acquiring new skills and further developing them. The teacher will guide students and will be encouraged to take risks in their creative work. Students will study and create artworks influenced by historical/contemporary artists and works to create original work and further develop a style.
