How It Works


Students receive access to their own online studio where they can work through their course. Units and assignments are listed along with supporting resources, video tutorials for skills development, step by step guides etc. Photographs of students' completed work are uploaded to their college e portfolio for assessment and constructive, friendly written feedback on how to progress. Additionally students are invited to LIVE interactive online lessons at timetabled times. If students can't make the lessons they can watch them in their own time so they won't miss any of the course content. The fully qualified and experienced school art teacher is available for feedback via email and messager. Students are invited to discuss their progress and receive face to face verbal feedback, encouragement and support. Students may also benefit from relationships with their fellow online students as they can view profiles and comment on each others' art work if they wish.


Assessment


Formative as courses progress and summative at the end of units and the course. Students' timed test / final major project and written assignment will be assessed externally by the exam board and this will decide the final grade. You will be kept informed every step of the way on how to improve your work.
