INTRODUCTION TO COURSE

A student portfolio is a compilation of academic work and other forms of educational evidence assembled for the purpose of evaluating art work quality, learning progress, and academic achievements, determining whether students have met learning standards or other art requirements.   

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • Develop a portfolio of personal artwork and recognize the opportunity for exhibition of selected works. 

  • Students can write exhibition titles, artist’s biographical statements, captions, program notes, or website entries.

  • Asking students to assess the quality of a performance, media presentation, exhibition or specific musical composition, dance, play, film, or visual artwork will give practice in opinion/argument writing.
