Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
Development of the capacity for analysis and synthesis through the observation, interpretation and graphic recording of conceptual and material models.
Development of operational capacity through the exploration of the behaviors and potentialities of the different supports and registries, as well as the experimentation of different ways of representing, creating and discovering.
. Development the capacities to materialize ideas and the critical spirit.
Progressive reflexive, technical and creative autonomy of the student.
. Study of the objects and awareness about the ethical and critical dimension of the artist and his artistic production.

Contents
Operational means of graphic language:
.MaterialsSupports and instruments (conventional and unconventional). .ConceptualThe senses, the memory and the imagination.
Structural elements of the graphical language:
. point, line, plan, texture, colour and bright/dark values, shape, positive space/negative space, surface, time, support ordering trace, basic structural lines, primary and secondery axes, implicit and explicit lines.
Operational modes:
Scale, placement/signification, function; direction; cohesion, stability, fluctuation, instability, weight and tension, dynamics of a composition, proximity relations, distance, adjacency, overlapping; transparency, opacity, contamination and attraction between forms; visual mobility, perspective, distance, proximity and the different points of view, simplification through leveling and through accentuating, construction, deconstruction, inversion, rotation, movement, rhythm, alternation, simultaneity, collage and other expressive aspects.

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).
