Course Description: ART IV
GRADES: 11-12 Credit: 1 Unit This self-directed course is the culminating art experience and the final course covered at the secondary level. Students will maintain self-directed sketchbooks directly related to their independent research. Students will use their developed advanced skills to independently embark in art making. My hope is that students will gain an understanding of themselves and the world around them through hands-on art making and the study of artists situated in many cultures. My goal is for students to develop an appreciation for good citizenship through mutual respect of peers and their artwork and consistent work ethic through the exploration of ideas through media. Students will learn to set goals and high expectation for themselves and exhibit commitment to tasks, especially through difficult times in their growth. Students will practice formulating new ideas, innovative thinking, team work, and become visually literate, all skills that will contribute to their success in a global economy.
