Methodology

ACTIVITIES


Self-employed

Text readings and viewing of audiovisual documentaries on the cultural dimension: Art and education.

Design and artistic creation: the processes of artistic creation will begin in the workshop (seminars) and can be followed autonomously in other spaces: nature, library, ...

Visit to an art exhibition, it will be decided at the beginning of the subject and will depend on the exhibitions that are scheduled in Barcelona at this time. The student will have to go on his / her own and make the payment of the ticket, if applicable.

Virtual sessions

Presentations by teachers of the contents and basic questions of the syllabus. They will be done with the whole group virtually.

There will be (virtual) debates on issues in the area.


Seminars

Art practice: small group work spaces (maximum 25 students) supervised by the teachers where proposals specific to the area will be made: individually and in groups. It delves into the contents and topics worked on in the large (virtual) group.

Reflections from the texts and viewings of audiovisual documents related to the subject.

Work of the artistic creation process: analysis of the processes and results.


Supervised

Individual or small group tutorials to follow the proposals (face-to-face or virtual).

Work of the artistic creation process: analysis of the processes and results.

 

SPECIFIC MATERIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ACTIVITIES

The sessions of this course are based on research and experimentation with materials by students, which requires an investigation based on image documentation and of the recycling of materials for art education. Moreover, the methodology adopted requires for a good development that students bring to the classroom specialised materials for the developing of art activities (brushes and paints, among others).

*Teachers will recommend the most suitable material for planned activities, which will have a sustainable cost and can be shared among students. We will search for mechanisms to ensure that the student can have it in case you do not have the necessary resources.

 

Our teaching approach and assessment procedures may be altered if public health authorities impose new restrictions on public gatherings for COVID-19
