Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
The general learning objectives promote the development of experimental, representation, analysis, synthesis
capabilities, and of reflexive autonomy and operating capacity, through observation and the interpretation of
reality and of conceptual, and material models.
The acquisition of knowledge, skills and competencies progressively progress to a level of intermediate complexity
and are adjusted according to the process of artistic research and experimentation.
a. Ability to analyze images and texts;
b. Be able to identify and know the meaning concepts addressed;
c. Know how to interpret and reinterpret references, processes and methods;
d. Formulate and propose in a correct and articulated way the ideas;
e. Distinguishing exploited processes and methods;
f. To develop the operational and the exploitation capacity of the different supports and instruments;
g. To develop the ability to design and execute work with a hybrid language - bi and tri-dimensional;
h. Make proper use of the vocabulary of Plastic Arts;
i. Create and articulate a personal language;
j. Be able to argue and defend their work.
