The following Art Department learning outcomes are designed to be in line with program standards recommended by the National Art Education Association, the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education art education competencies, the National Association of Schools of Art and Design, and the Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium.
Goals for Student Learning
William Jewell College Art and Art Education majors:
- Demonstrate studio art production skills and a well-developed understanding of their own art-making processes, qualities, and techniques;
- Are knowledgeable about the use of traditional and new technologies, materials, and techniques related to visual arts production;
- Are knowledgeable about the cultural and historical contexts surrounding works of art;
- Develop meaningful interpretations and judgments about their own artworks and the works of other artists;
- Understand the aesthetic, creative, and philosophical issues and perspectives related to the visual arts;
- Recognize the interdisciplinary relationships of the visual arts with the fine arts and other disciplines.
The department offers one major and two minors. The major in art leads to a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree. A minimum of 37 hours of art courses is required with a maximum of 40 hours allowed toward degree requirements. The department also offers minors in Art History and Studio Art. A grade of C- or higher is required in each course for the major or the minor. Transfer students must complete at least 12 hours in art courses at Jewell before graduating with an Art degree. All art majors (including those students with art as a second major) must complete the requirements for the BA degree.
