AIMS and OBJECTIVES (adapted from The College Board for Art Pre-AP Level 2018-2019)
The following Scheme of Work is skills based and connected to The National Art Education Core Standards, The Visual Art Course Guide Pre-AP College Board Objectives, and the books; How to Look at Modern Art, by Philip Yenawine, Drawing and Painting, 2015 by Kate Wilson, and Printmaking, 2015 by Bill Fick & Beth Grabowski, as well as other online resources on art education. Participation in Pre-AP courses places students on a path to college readiness.
These courses provide students with opportunities to engage deeply with texts, motivating problems to solve and questions to answer, and key concepts that focus on the content and skills central to each discipline. Across the ninth-grade Pre-AP courses, students will experience shared classroom routines that foster and deepen college-readiness skills. Finally, students will take classroom assessments that provide meaningful and actionable feedback on college-readiness indicators.
The Scheme of Work assumes 1 x 40 minute periods of classroom lessons per week, and is arranged on a weekly basis allowing for development of language skills. The scheme will outline skills that the students will develop, possible activities, and differentiated instructional practices. Four key skill areas/modalities will be included in the scheme: Explore, Discover, Create, Present. Skills outlined in the scheme may require more or less time to complete than what is suggested. In addition, teachers can bundle activities to cover multiple skills. Pre-AP Visual Art Students learn to think critically and creatively as artists while developing discipline-specific knowledge and skills.

DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION IN ART EDUCATION Strategies for differentiating instruction in an art class Students want to feel competent and accomplished in their educational pursuits. One way to help students build confidence is to allow them to choose their own methods to demonstrate learning. If you assign everyone the same art project, students who lack confidence in that area will not produce their best work. Even if they know a lot about the subject, their finished product won't be an accurate reflection of their ability or knowledge. The choices you offer depend on what you're assessing. Do you want students to be able to differentiate between historical art periods, such as impressionism and art nouveau? If so, some possible project or assessment options are: •
Have students create works of art in a chosen medium that represent styles from different periods of art from history.
•
Allow students to write a compare and contrast essay to compare two different art periods.
•
Let students design a poster using elements from a particular period of art.
Do you want students to demonstrate an understanding of the concept of perspective in art? If so, consider these options: •
Students could collect a series of images that demonstrate different perspectives and vantage points and share them with the class.
•
Students who enjoy writing could assume the role of an inanimate object and write a series of diary entries from that object's perspective. This could demonstrate that the concept of perspective is applicable to all art forms, including creative writing.
•
Students who own a camera could choose an image (such as a leaf, penny, or squirrel) to photograph from a variety of perspectives (such as from the ground, from far away, and up close). They can create a digital portfolio to showcase the series.
Differentiated instruction https://study.com/teach/differentiated-instruction.html
INSTRUCTION METHODS IN AP (The College Board for Art Pre-AP Level 2018-2019) Pre-AP course frameworks articulate the essential knowledge, skills, and practices all students need to be prepared for college and career. In short, the frameworks outline the what in terms of the content and skills teachers should prioritize. The Pre-AP teacher, in turn, breathes life into the course by defining the how—creating the learning opportunities that allow students to build, practice, and strengthen the skills that will reward them throughout their high school coursework and prepare them for their futures. The Pre-AP teacher's role is to translate what lives in this framework into classroom learning. The Pre-AP course resources help teachers do that by modeling effective strategies and approaches that they can adapt and leverage throughout the course. The teacher-facing lessons and student resources (available to schools participating in the official Pre-AP Program) provide concrete models of how to apply the course framework and instructional principles to daily instruction. This section describes the overall Pre-AP instructional approach, or philosophy, to serve as a reference or guide for all teachers seeking to align their instruction to Pre-AP goals and principles. The following components bring shape, focus, and meaning to Pre-AP courses, while honoring and preserving the space and flexibility for teachers' instructional decision making: Shared principles: Instructional routines and strategies that unite all Pre-AP courses Areas of focus: Discipline-specific instructional priorities for the course Instructional resources: Overview of the lessons and resources that are provided to teachers participating in the official Pre-AP Program Pre-AP course teachers will receive more detailed course maps and planning tools through the digital resources and professional learning institute that come with official program participation.
ART EDUCATION IN CHINA An interesting artical on art education in China Art Education China has the tradition of valuing art education in educational institutions. The third National Conference on Education since China adopted the policy of reform and open-up has once again included students' development in art into the national guidelines for education. In recent years, rapid progress has been achieved in art education in regular educational institutions. A scientific administrative system over art education has been formed covering all levels of the country. A series of guiding documents concerning art education has been issued. The teaching structure of art education, inter-related between all stages from primary school, junior and senior secondary school to university, has taken an initial shape.

ASSESSMENT Of, As, and For LEARNING (adapted from National Art Education Core Standards and The College Board for Art Pre-AP Level 2018-2019) Pre-AP is designed to both facilitate and measure student learning while supporting teacher practice in the orchestration of instruction and assessment in the classroom. The Pre-AP theory of action is threefold: 1) purposeful and focused content, 2) horizontal alignment of skills and strategies, and 3) targeted assessments tied with feedback and reflection for both students and teachers. These elements guide Pre-AP curriculum and assessment design in order to support teacher learning as a means to increase student success. Therefore, these design features should widen the net of the number of students prepared for later high school and college coursework. The targeted assessments, feedback reports, and scoring rubrics help build a more consistent teacher understanding of performance expectations required by Pre-AP to build readiness for AP and college-level work. The emphasis on scoring student work and utilizing assessment feedback reports aligns strongly with qualitative feedback from the AP Program on the highly instructive value AP Readings and other distributive scoring models have on teacher understanding of assessment performance benchmarks. In Pre-AP courses, students begin by carefully examining one object, text, performance piece, or problem. They will engage in deep observation to build, refine, or confirm their knowledge, thus developing a foundational skill that supports analysis and learning in each discipline. As students encounter texts, art, graphs, maps, problems, and other source materials, they will learn to first engage in deep, close observation before being asked to explain and then apply or evaluate. In all four Pre-AP Arts courses, students will regularly engage in conversation about selected anchor works—key artistic examples that relate to students' own creative work, even if they are not performing or otherwise emulating this selected work directly. They will learn to observe and analyze these works in terms of craft— describing how they were made. They analyze meaning or intent, identifying what the creator may have been aiming to express. In observing and analyzing these examples, students will be encouraged to frame their ideas using discipline-specific vocabulary.In the arts, academic conversation relates to student discussion of professional examples (as described in Close Observation and Analysis, above), but also to the ways that students are encouraged to effectively collaborate and communicate in the creation and presentation of their own work. Through guided discussion, Pre-AP Arts students will regularly share their own ideas and works in progress with one another and respond to the work of their peers. In these conversations, they will offer suggestions, provide rationales for their ideas, and compare and contrast their own work to the work of others. In discussing and refining their works and performances collaboratively, students will come to understand that there may be several possible solutions to any creative challenge.

STUDENT-CENTERED ASSESSMENTS Just like teachers, students need to know how to use assessments. NAEA identifies strategies for art educators to plan and implement quality assessments that maximize students’ full potential. Student-centered assessments in the visual arts align with curricular standards, learning goals, objectives, and desired expressive outcomes such as idea development, habits of mind, and innovation and problem-solving skills (Eisner, 2002).
Assessment-literate art educators present assessments in student-friendly language; teach students how to use assessments; and explain what is being assessed, why it is being assessed, and how it is being assessed. With practice, students learn to use formative assessments to guide in-progress learning tasks so that they are better prepared to reach goals and targets measured through summative assessments.
As a general rule, art educators understand how the acts of taking chances and making mistakes (which sometimes occur during art production and inquiry tasks) can be important components of the learning process and lead to quality results. Art educators who are assessment literate—that is, highly proficient in assessment—know how to use assessments to guide teaching and student performances that include creating artworks, developing portfolios, experimenting with art media and processes, brainstorming ideas, and reflecting in journals (Chappuis, Stiggins, Chappuis, & Arter, 2012; Sickler-Voigt, in press). They develop comprehensive learning tasks that encourage students to be aware of and apply artistic behaviors and mindsets (Hetland, Winner, Veenema, & Sheridan, 2013). When assessments are necessary for teaching evaluations, assessment-literate art educators consider strategies to make their results extend beyond compulsory exercises. Seeing the values of assessment in everyday teaching and as part of a well-rounded education, they communicate assessment results to students, parents, teachers, administrators, and policy makers. They articulate the valuable role of art education in our schools and communities NATIONAL ART EDUCATION ASSOCIATION www.arteducators.org Assessment White Papers for Art Education-pdf
ACTION PLANNING HIGH SCHOOL ACCOMMPLISHED CREATING: Analyze how response to art is influenced by understanding the time and place in which it was created, the available resources, and cultural uses. Choose from a range of materials and methods of traditional and contemporary artistic practices to plan works of art and design. Through experimentation, practice, and persistence, demonstrate acquisition of skills and knowledge in a chosen art form. Demonstrate awareness of ethical implications of making and distributing creative work. Redesign an object, system, place, or design in response to contemporary issues. Engage in constructive critique with peers, then react on, re-engage, revise, and re-ne works of art and design in response to personal artistic vision. HIGH SCHOOL ACCOMPLISHED PRESENTING: Analyze, select, and critique personal artwork for a collection or portfolio presentation. ❑ Evaluate, select, and apply methods or processes appropriate to display artwork in a specific place. ❑ Make, explain, and justify connections between artists or artwork and social, cultural, and political history.
HIGH SCHOOL ACCOMPLISHED RESPONDING: Recognize and describe personal aesthetic and empathetic responses to the natural world and constructed environments. Evaluate the effectiveness of an image or images to influence ideas, feelings, and behaviors of specific audiences. Identify types of contextual information useful in the process of constructing interpretations of an artwork or collection of works. ❑ Determine the relevance of criteria used by others to evaluate a work of art or collection of works.
HIGH SCHOOL ACCOMPLISHED CONNECTING: Utilize inquiry methods of observation, research, and experimentation to explore unfamiliar subjects through art-making. Compare uses of art in a variety of societal, cultural, and historical contexts and make connections to uses of art in contemporary and local contexts.
LESSON PLANNING In addition to completing the scheme of work outlined below, The course design provides opportunities for students to develop the knowledge, skills, and dispositions articulated across the five big ideas in the arts framework, both during and outside of Pre-AP Arts module implementation. The course provides opportunities for students to engage in the Pre-AP Arts areas of focus outside of the Pre-AP instructional materials. The course provides opportunities for students to engage in the Pre-AP shared principles: Close observation and analysis Evidence-based writing Higher-order questioning Academic conversation Practice The instructional plan for the course includes opportunities for students to continue to practice and develop disciplinary skills outside of the Pre-AP instructional materials within each module. Assessment The instructional plan for the course includes one performance assessment and two formative assessments per module. Note: Semester-length arts courses are responsible for implementing one module and corresponding assessment. The instructional plan reflects the time and methods for using the performance task rubrics provide actionable feedback to students. The instructional plan reflects the time and/or methods and strategies for making responsive adjustments to future instruction based on student performance. Participating teachers and students are provided with discipline-specific materials and resources enabling students to complete the production- and performance-based work associated with the instructional modules. Students in Pre-AP Visual Arts courses will need access to art tools and materials (from within a range of options described in instructional modules) for student practice and creative production.
Pre-AP Visual Arts Areas of Focus Analysis and Interpretation: Students observe, investigate, and discuss a limited number of anchor works, which are works of art central to the themes and content of a particular topic, and relate these examples to their own creative work. Peer-to-Peer Dialogue: Students engage in structured conversations with peers to share ideas, respond to and offer advice on works in progress, critique final works, and discuss next steps. Experimentation: Students generate and consider a range of options for both the technical and expressive content of their work and make purposeful decisions about which options to incorporate in the work. Reflective writing: Students communicate and clarify ideas in writing throughout the creative process: as a component of research and idea generation, in describing works in progress, and in reflecting on final works.
Following a standardized lesson plan template. It is recommended that the vocabulary focus for the topics are theme-based, and connect to the “Useful Vocabulary for the AP Art Exam” from the reference books; How to Look at Modern Art, by Philip Yenawine and adapted lessons from

3.
Blind Contour Line Drawing
A blind contour drawing contains lines that are drawn without ever looking at the piece of paper. This forces you to study a scene closely, observing every shape and edge with your eyes, as your hand mimics these on paper. The aim is not to produce a realistic artwork, but rather to strengthen the connection between eyes, hand and brain: a reminder that, when drawing, you must first learn to see. Blind Drawing Exercises: Blind drawing is an excellent way to start a high school Fine Art programme. Drawing wobbly lines that bear little resemblance to the chosen object is relaxing and stress-free. Often, a classroom bubbles with laughter at the unexpected results. Blind drawing stretches the arms and soul; eases you into
observational drawing without fear.
