Art Curriculum 2 (Extension)

EDMT5653

This unit builds further on the learning in EDBT5652 and further explores the knowledge base underpinning the principles and practices of learning and teaching in the Visual Arts in the Stage 6 course through investigating the aims, objectives, outcomes, content, key terms and course requirements of the arts syllabi. Candidates will be introduced to the central concepts, modes of enquiry and the structures of ceramics, object design or print media and explore various pedagogies for assessing learning in these media in the Visual Arts 7-12. Subsequently candidates will further critically examine current knowledge and understandings of art education issues specifically related to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and those with special education needs. In addition candidates are introduced to the significance of case studies as a means of developing greater insight into the visual arts and consider a range of strategies in implementing case studies in a Stage 6 HSC program of learning.
