Class Expectations for AP Studio Art & Design III

CLASS WORK/HOMEWORK: The basis of all work will be the Elements of Art

and the Principles of Design. It is a requirement of the College Board that students will

produce 2/3 of their work outside of the classroom in order to receive AP credit.

Assignments will be given from the syllabus but all students will be encouraged to pursue

personally motivated work. The sketchbook is an important tool for every artist and all

students will be expected to draw/write/compile visual and verbal information in their

sketchbooks on a daily basis. The work assigned to students at this level is designed not

so much to teach a specific skill as it is to enhance the skills already acquired and provide

a creative opportunity for the students to begin to express and develop their own unique

style. All students will be expected to visit the Cincinnati Art museum this year as well as

to attend the "Portfolio Day" at the Art Academy of Cincinnati in the fall (date

TBA). It is the responsibility of each student to write in the sketchbook the due

dates and specific requirements of each assignment.

THERE IS DRAWING HOMEWORK IN YOUR SKETCHBOOK EVERY

NIGHT. IF I DO NOT ASSIGN A SPECIFIC SUBJECT YOU WILL MAKE A

DRAWING OF YOUR OWN CHOICE. EACH PAGE MUST BE DATED.

THE AP STUDIO ART DRAWING PORTFOLIO: All students will be given on the

first day of class a copy of the College Board AP Studio Art Course Description by the

instructor, and later in the year the poster briefly outlining the contents of the Course

Description. Students will:

1. Read and address all three sections of the portfolio: Breadth, Concentration, and

Quality. These will be addressed in class discussion at the introduction of each

assignment.

2. Develop mastery of concept, composition, and execution of their personal ideas

and themes. This should be exhibited in the sketchbook as a visual diary that will

be the foundation for all finished work.

3. Develop a body of work investigating a strong underlying visual idea in drawing

that grows out of a coherent plan of action or investigation. Once again the

sketchbook should be extensively utilized for the development of ideas and to

discuss with the instructor the development of those ideas from inception through

development to completion.

Page 7: Studio Art 3  AP

4. Satisfy the Breadth requirement of the AP portfolio: though, in class, and out of

class assignments, figure drawing, fulfilling a minimum of required independent

work, and investigating the work of artists studied in Art History assignments.

5. Fulfill all curricular requirements as presented in the course syllabus.

6. Demonstrate an ongoing and informed process in conjunction with the instructor

(in informal and formal personal interview) and class (during class critique at the

completion of each assignment) to exhibit mastery of not only technical skill but

an understanding of the principles of design, and critical decision making by

analysis and interpretation of the work of their own, their peers and the work

others.

7. Practice integrity by the exhibition of their mutual respect. Theft, vandalism,

handling another's work without permission, or the destruction of another's work

or property will exclude a student from this class. I expect you to take pride in all

that you do and assume that others feel the same. Plagiarism is a violation of

Trademark and Copyright law. You may never use any portion of any work of art

created by another artist from any source (internet or otherwise) without

permission of the artist. If you present another’s work as your own in any form

that work is an academic violation and will receive an automatic failure.

Remember, that regardless of weather you submit your portfolio to the College Board or

not you are still required to submit it to me in the same format with appropriate slides,

actual work, and essay responses to the Concentration questions.

THE CONCENTRATION: Although I will meet with you individually on an ongoing

basis throughout the year to discuss your concentration, remember to review the AP

Studio Art document given to you at the beginning of the year. Also, consider our

discussions on the principles of design, the fine and applied arts, style, the purpose of art

in society, and the work of artists from our readings on the lives and work of artists.

Your concentration proposal and work will be evaluated every critique based upon the

criteria in your proposal. Your concentration should evolve; so only in rare instances will

a student need to radically change the proposal. Finally: you must remember to

document the evolution of your concentration in your sketchbook for later reference and

not only make verbal but also visual references to your influences from other artists and

art history. Although assignments with specific intentions for learning and skill

development are given by the instructor they are open ended enough for students to

attempt to adapt the assignment to the concentration whenever possible.

CRITIQUES: There will be no tests in the traditional sense. Test will be by critique.

ATTENDANCE IS REQUIRED FOR CRITIQUES - Every student is required to

participate in the critique sessions - they are the class tests and therefore no excuse

other than a school sanctioned absence will be accepted. The class critique is an open

forum where the instructor will not only make comments concerning technical and

aesthetic problems and successes but will encourage the entire class to respond. Positive

Page 8: Studio Art 3  AP

comments are most desirable because it is more valuable to learn from each other the

good things that we have done as opposed to the negative. Likes and dislikes, although

important, are only a small part of the class critique. All students will be encouraged to

express their opinions which will be directed toward technique and aesthetics.

GRADING: Works of art are graded based upon the student's effort, presentation, and

time spent on the assignment. Grades are also determined by neatness, ability to follow

directions, interpretation of the assignment, technique and quality of execution. Of all of

these qualities other than time spent, creative risk taking - TRYING SOMETHING

DIFFERENT - is the most desirable and will produce the best results.

GRADING PERCENTAGES:

50%: CRITIQUES: All major class and out of class assignment.

25%: PORTFOLIO: All Class Portfolios

25%: HOMEWORK: to include the sketchbook or any other minor assignment given

by the instructor for completion outside of class.

NO EXTRA CREDIT, except in unusual circumstances initiated by the instructor and

only for students who have completed all work on time and according to directions.

DISCIPLINE: THE FREEDOM OF THE ARTROOM: All Moeller Art/Photo

students enjoy a privilege that I like to call "The Freedom of the Art Room". This

freedom requires a great deal of maturity and responsibility on the part of all students.

Those that do not practice this maturity and responsibility will have that freedom

curtailed or revoked. Mutual respect among students is required. Theft, vandalism,

handling another's work without permission, or the destruction of another's work or

property will exclude a student from this class. I expect you to take pride in all that you

do and assume that others feel the same. The only thing that belongs in your mouth

during this class is what God or the Orthodontist put in there. As stated in the School

Student Handbook, no food is to be consumed anywhere outside of the school cafeteria.

KEEP YOUR GUM AND CANDY AT HOME. GUM CHEWING IS

INAPPROPRIATE AT SCHOOL. ALSO, REMEMBER TO "KEEP YOUR HANDS TO

YOURSELF". Chewing your fingernails, any other part of your body, clothes, pens, pen

tops, paper, books, dirt, grit, desk, school property of any kind, other students, the

property of other students, dried flavored or unflavored, salted or unsalted, corn, or other

crunchy product; to include, dried meats, fruits, vegetables, cow, pig, lamb, or other

animal product either living, dead or in suspended animation - IS STRICTLY

PROHIBITED IN THIS CLASS. Persons not able to control their bodies and the actions

of their bodies during class will receive a self-control training assignment for homework

to assist them in overcoming their difficulty. (You will hand-write this page

twice.) THIS ALSO APPLIES TO DRINKS. DO NOT BRING LIQUIDS TO

CLASS. If you fear dehydration during class, consume sufficient liquids before class at

one of the many cool and refreshing water fountains that abound in the hallways at

Page 9: Studio Art 3  AP

Archbishop Moeller High School. Please try to relieve your body of all waste products

between classes. If you need to blow your nose during class remember that this is not

grade school and, no, I do not have a tissue for you, nor will I excuse you from class to

go search for one. Keep a handkerchief in your pocket or a sufficient packet of tissues in

your backpack.
