Course content
Arts and Crafts 1 (5-10), course 1 together with course 2 qualify for teaching arts and crafts from 5th to 10th grade in primary school. The course provides an introduction to visual and graphic arts, architecture, art history and culture studies, and subject didactics. The student will gain experience with art and design processes, a variation of working methods and different materials that provide learning outcomes in relation to the requirements of the current curriculum for 5th to 10th grade in primary school.
The course contributes aims to provide insight into the core elements of arts and crafts: art and design processes, cultural understanding, craftsmanship, visual communication and didactic reflection. The student will work within practical and creative processes so as to become a competent teacher for pupils and will learn to use different forms of assessment that contribute to the pupils´ learning.
The course will convey and engage the students in explorative work methods. Exploratory learning processes should promote students' independence, analytical skills and critical reflection.
The course consists of three areas:
Art, art history and culture studies, subject didactics.
Art: The field of art emphasizes working with pictures and sculpture. Visual art and graphics is an exploration of image as a visual, aesthetic and communicative expression. Practical work with the two-dimensional form and digital media are emphasized. Shape, color, composition and symbol processing are central themes. Sculpture includes exploration of and work with aesthetic, visual, tactile and communicative expression, both through various types of sculpture, installation and landscape art.
Art history and culture studies: Art history and culture studies focuses on cultural understanding, with an emphasis on Norwegian and international art from neoclassicism to contemporary art, as well as crafts, design and architecture from historicism to the present day. The field provides a basis for planning lessons and experiences, and also the development of knowledge and awareness of different cultural expression. Through the exploration of different cultural expressions one can better see oneself and others in a historical and cultural context.
Subject didactics: The field of subject didactics is an integral part of the course work and has to do with organized learning in arts and crafts, the subject's relevance and legitimacy as a part of the curriculum in primary school. The student´s own experiences in the subject should develop the students into competent teachers so they can guide pupils in their creative processes and provide knowledge in learning and assessment that promote the pupils' academic development.
