Course Overview In this course, students will be immersed in various artistic styles and artistic time periods across the world. Students will explore the

history of visual art from a global perspective and build understanding of the place of the arts within broader historical, cultural,

religious, and political frameworks. Through oral, written, collaborative and hands-on assignments, students will analyze artworks

based on the time and place that each work comes from.

The New Jersey Student Learning Standards provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so

teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real

world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young people need for success in college and careers. With American students

fully prepared for the future, our communities will be best positioned to compete successfully in the global economy.

The curriculum guide has been generated to not only help students achieve the New Jersey Student Learning Standards, but to

ensure that students will be prepared for college and career opportunities following high school graduation.
