COURSE REQUIREMENTS
ART 136: Color and Design
ART 137: Advanced Design

The objectives of this entry level class course (no pre-requisites courses are required) are to experience creative processes (See Blind Art Teacher) , learn color theory and apply some working principles of design
.
Course Outline:
(not necessarily in the following order)
 

Black and White (point, line, shape) - 6 weeks
 

Color Theory - 4 weeks

Color Projects - 4 weeks

Other Projects - 2 weeks

No textbook is required, but approximately $150 worth of design materials will be needed during the course. Ten hours per week, including class time, is an average of time needed to complete assignments. One individual feild trip to a museum, galleries or somewhere else or a written report may be required
Attendance will be taken and 5 absences may result in a lowered grade. A passing grade on an examination of color nomenclature is required for a final grade of C or higher. With the above considerations, the final grade is based entirely on a semester's end conference with a portfolio representing all classwork, homework and extra work. Interim work and individual designs will be graded generally only upon the student's request
