Contextualization
In the image-world in which we live, it is necessary to be aware of all those languages and tools that build the visual culture that surrounds us. To awaken a critical gaze over this avalanche of images, and learn strategies to create alternative visual narratives, in this course students will learn/experiment the expressive possibilities of the different audiovisual languages (photography, video, new media, animation, etc.). Resources will also be offered in the teaching of the visual arts in early childhood education, deepening in the knowledge and foundations of art, artistic expression and audiovisual languages.

Methodology
Teaching and learning activities
- Presentations by teachers of the contents and basic questions of the syllabus.
- Carrying out a cultural activity or compulsory trip (Museums, art exhibitions, conferences, audiovisuals, etc.) at a cost not exceeding € 5 (transport not included) and at the hours corresponding to the subject. At the beginning of the subject, the day and place of the cultural activity will be specified. In the event that students are unable to attend, we must notify them in advance and must do the activity on their own.
- Reading and reflections of texts and audiovisual documents related to the subject.
- Tasks related to the process of artistic and audiovisual creation (analysis of processes and results) and to the educational intervention in the classroom.
- The methodology adopted requires for its good development that the student brings to the classroom specialized materials for the realization of the artistic activities (brushes and paintings, among others). Teachers will recommend the most appropriate material for the scheduled activities, which will have a sustainable cost and can be shared among students. Mechanisms will be sought to ensure that the student can have it at his disposal in the event that the necessary resources are not available.
- The methodological dynamics of performative arts education will be followed.
- All sessions will be face-to-face instruction (review schedule)
- The proposed teaching methodology and assessment may undergo some modification depending on the attendance restrictions imposed by the health authorities.
