For example: students will hang up their finished artwork for a class critique, either individually or as a group. Students will be asked to comment at least once, either written or verbally, on an artwork other than their own, about one aspect of the drawing's success--either process, composition, style, historical relationship, emotional response, etc. After several comments or written responses about the artworks's success, the instructor will ask for any comments from students about areas for improvement for the drawing, either formal (i.e. process, composition, style) or if anything is unclear (i.e. distracting or confusing). The instructor can identify through the observation of these written and verbal comments any points of confusion, and readdress gaps in understanding related to form, composition, tonal and value range, and other elements of visual literacy. After several comments and written responses, the original creator of the discussed artwork will have an opportunity to ask questions or clarify their approach/intent with their artwork and answer/respond to any previous student questions or comments. Objective Examinations Example: Objective exams may test students on basics of lab safety and protocol. Such as, a fill in the blank quiz where students must identify hazardous versus non-hazardous media and waste, along with handling, storage, and disposal procedures of various art lab materials. Example: Empty aerosol spray fixative cans should be placed in the ______. Projects Example: Projects can be used as a method to assess the student's working knowledge of the physical properties of drawing along with the perception and development of composition through elements of design and organization of form. For example, the instructor will demonstrate in class a still life drawing while pointing out a variety of characteristics that can be attributed to drawing surfaces, and compelling or desirable passages in the drawing such as composition, form, color, mark-making, proportion, entire use of picture plane, etc. The students will then be asked to set up, and draw a still life with objects that follow a conceptual theme. Students will also have the choice of doing a series of smaller drawings, or an extra-large drawing of the subjects. This will ensure that students are not only responsible for rendering the objects they chose, but also responsible and thoughtful in the selection, placement, and lighting of the composition. Work will be assessed using a rubric developed by the instructor and shared with students covering topics such as theme, composition, form, value, mark-making and materials. Repeatable No Methods of Instruction Laboratory Lecture/Discussion Distance Learning Lab: Transformation: Create an original drawing that depicts change or something in the act of changing. Evaluate color drawing materials and drawing style to be used that will enhance emotional response to subject. Instructor shows images of example drawings and distributes hand-outs containing the project description and due dates. Concepts of making preliminary sketches using tracing paper overlays to stimulate ideas are discussed and demonstrated. Completed projects are discussed as a group and critiqued on these processes and degree of overall success. Active and relevant participation by students will include verbal and written critique examples of their fellow classmates work. Lecture: Visually oriented lecture and demonstration about safely handling, using, and disposing of materials, along with the safe use of equipment in the lab. For example, a safety video specific to our labs will be shown both in class and available on-line, along with an instructor-led lab walk-through and tutorial. A safety quiz that corresponds with the video will be administered in class or on-line. All students must take and pass the safety quiz before being allowed to proceed with laboratory activities. Distance Learning Visually oriented and captioned lecture of drawings that depicts change or something in the act of changing. Video demonstration shows concepts of making preliminary sketches using tracing paper overlays to stimulate ideas. Students submit progress drawings to the instructor for feedback. Completed projects are posted to the discussion board and critiqued through written format on the processes and degree of overall success. Active and relevant participation includes students responding to each others’ comments in the discussion board. Typical Out of Class Assignments Reading Assignments 1. Read instructor assigned reviews of gallery/museum show from a periodical or website. In a one-two page typed paper, analyze and describe the reviewer's effectiveness in describing visual work with the written word. Differentiate the use of descriptive and vague interpretations in the review. 2. Read about a well documented artist and give an oral presentation about their work in class, describing style, technique, and historical context of their significant work. Writing, Problem Solving or Performance 1. Write a critique on a museum or gallery show you have visited during the semester. In a one page typed paper evaluate the aesthetic strength and weakness of the show, using relevant terminology. 2. Prepare and submit for evaluation a portfolio of artwork completed during the semester. Include a written critique of the work using relevant terminology to describe its technical and aesthetic strengths, while also addressing areas in need of development. Other (Term projects, research papers, portfolios, etc.) Develop a sketchbook, drawing every week, outside of class, that further investigates approaches and techniques for class projects. The completion of pages in the sketchbook will be followed by in-class check-ins throughout the semester, including at the midpoint and end of the semester, examining the page quantity while discussing opportunities and strategies towards displayed development and areas of interest.
