Teaching Methods
The contents are introduced in through lectures, supported by visual teaching materials created by the Professor, relevant videos to the subjects that are being taught, in debates, and in lectures given by invited Artists or other Art professionals.
Study field trips favour the direct contact with exhibitions in museums and cultural institutions that are important for Methodology of the Professional Practice, but also for their training as Artists.
There is continuous assessment. Students will develop, individually or in small groups, a project that will culminate in a final work.
The final result derives from the following weighting:
- Participation in classes and completion of the proposed exercises 30%,
- Participation in field trips and completion of the correlated proposed exercises 20%,
- Final work 50%.
