VISUAL ARTS
CURRICULUM AIMS
S1-S3
- To develop students’ perceptual abilities, with special emphasis on visual, aesthetic, and arts experiences;
- To enable students to express personal feelings and thoughts through artistic presentations;
- To develop students’ visual cognition, generic skills, and metacognition through art making, appreciation, and criticism;
- To broaden students’ perspectives through exploration of the arts of diverse cultures; and
- To cultivate students’ emotions, personal refinement, morals, and sense of commitment towards the nation and the world.
Students may use a variety of visual arts media and forms to express their ideas and feelings. Due to the development of new materials and technologies for making shapes, forms and concepts of presentation, new visual arts media and forms such as video art, digital art, web art, installation art, environmental art, and conceptual art continue to emerge. Students should be provided with opportunities to enhance their artistic presentation abilities as they experience and explore different materials, techniques, and media to produce alternative forms of visual arts.
