This course is designed for students who are interested in creating an AP Portfolio in
either 2-Dimensional Design; 3-Dimensional Design; or Drawing. These courses augment our curriculum by allowing an advanced level of exploration. Our area schools offer A, B. and C level courses in these subject areas; Drawing. Painting. Jewelry. Ceramics; courses also include Sculpture and Design class. AP Studio art is for students who want to work independently and more in-depth. A strong interest and high level of self discipline are essential as students will be personally responsible for setting goals, problem-posing and solving, gaining skills and self-assessing. Opportunities for individual, partner, and small group projects will be available. Students will be responsible for keeping a sketchbook, displaying their artwork and maintaining a process/product portfolio. Students are required to investigate all three aspects of the portfolio; which include quality, concentration and breath. Quality art experiences, which include Aesthetics, Art Criticism, Art History and Art Production, are essential. These experiences will assist students in developing personal philosophies about art; prompt them to describe, analyze, interpret and evaluate artwork; provide a basis for understanding the historical and cultural influences of art and encourage students’ personal expression in the making of art. Through the instruction and modeling of sequential art content, students will use creative and critical thinking, problem solving and decision making skills to successfully apply art concepts in their solutions to posed art problems. Discussions, reflection and hands-on activities will guide students in attaining these quality art experiences. All Visual Arts courses qualify for the MN required Arts Standard for graduation. |
