Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
Overall give students:
1. knowledge in the method of execution of artistic projects and in two-dimensional and three-dimensional
representation techniques, namely procedural design;
2. practical exercise that creates skills that allow you to conceive and execute;
3. ability to structure and implement the production of skilled works in artistic practices.
Specific objectives:
1. ability to visually represent the memories, the observed and the imagined, through various means of representation;
2. enable the operationally of the technical drawing;
3. promote the pleasure of drawing, giving to discover affective, rational procedures and their artistic incursions;
4. to sensitize students to the aesthetic dimension, implicit in their activity;
5. give students methods of thinking, expressing and materializing their ideas through the project, especially in
the face of orders and dimensions that exceed the natural size of the workshop;
6. notions of theoretical, technical and practical design;
7. to promote the pleasure of the exploration of forms in the metamorphosis of space, giving to discover the
conceptual, subjective and artistic processes.

Teaching Methods
In the NORMAL SEASON assessment students may choose one of two schemes: Continuous or Final Assessment.
The SPECIAL and EXTRAORDINARY assessments are governed by the Final Evaluation scheme.
1. CONTINUOUS EVALUATION SCHEME COMPONENTS
a. Class participation: 20%;
b. Work developed during the period with the aid of the teacher, which must be submitted, at least, to a periodic evaluation with public disclosure of the classifications: 40%;
c. Presentation and defense of the work developed during the classes, which occurs during the "Regular Season Evaluations": 40%.
The student's final grade, which will appear on the Normal Season students exams list, is the sum of a), b) and c).
2. FINAL EVALUATION SCHEME COMPONENTS
a. Work developed during the period with the teacher's aid: 40%;
b. Examination based on the contents taught: 60%.
The student's final grade, which will appear on the Normal Season students exams list, is the sum of a) and b)."
