ART 1033
Art 1033 is the elementary studio course in drawing. The overall objective of this course is to develop drawing skills, visual sensitivity and proper attitudes which will enable the student to discover a general rationale for art and the act of drawing. The emphasis in Art 1033 is on observation and discovery through the exposure to drawing concepts, drawing materials and drawing techniques.
Art 1043
Art 1043 emphasizes the continued development of basic drawing skills with the manipulation of media and composition to express artistic ideas. Art 1043 also fosters the development of basic professional art concepts and practices (discipline, design, art history and esthetics), and anatomical study from the model.
Art 3033
Continuation in the development of drawing skills and concepts. Students at the Art 3033 level should have a good grasp of basic drawing skills from Art 1033 and Art 1043. They should have a good understanding of drawing principles and drawing issues. Emphasis is on more advanced compositional issues, range of expression and use of medium and life drawing from the undraped model. This course may be repeated for credit.
Art 4033
Working from various subject matter with an emphasis on experimental composition, materials and technique. Continued work with the model. Prerequisite: 10 semester hours of drawing. This course may be repeated for credit.
In all drawing courses, students are expected to be on time and in attendance at the beginning of each session. Late arrival is disruptive.
It is expected that students will spend a minimum of three additional clock hours on work outside the scheduled class time for each studio class.
Academic Integrity Policy of the Art Department
I. Academic Integrity
A. Academic integrity calls for
students to do their own
work and not to claim as their work anything someone else
has done. Intellectual growth calls for doing one’s own
work; so does academic honesty.
B. Infringements of academic
integrity include offering
someone else’s work as your own (see Plagiarism below),
buying term papers, and cheating (see Test cheating below).
Specific penalties may result.
II. Plagiarism
A. "plagiarism" means
giving the impression in an
assigned paper or studio work that someone else’s thoughts,
ideas, images and/or words are your own.
B. To avoid plagiarism give
written credit and
acknowledgement to the source of the thought, idea, image
and/or words, whether you have used direct quotation,
paraphrasing, or just a reference to a general idea.
C. If you directly quote words
written by someone else,
enclose the quotation in quotation marks and provide a footnote.
D. If you directly incorporate
an image by someone else,
you should give credit to that person, in the title, or
following your signature, or in some other appropriate way.
Example: "... after Rembrandt."
E. No written paper or studio
project created for credit
in one class should be used for credit in another class
except with the knowledge and permission of all professors concerned.
F. The research as well as the
complete written paper or
studio project should be the work of the person seeking
academic credit for the course.
III. Faculty members may respond to plagiarism in any of
the following ways:
A. Return the work to be redone;
the grade may be reduced.
B. Give a failing grade on the
work ("F" or zero).
C. Give the student a failing
grade in the course.
IV. Test Cheating may consist of any of the following:
A. Having access to exam
questions beforehand.
B. Having access to course
information during an exam period.
C. Observing another person’s
test during the exam period.
V. If cheating occurs during a test, a faculty member
may:
A. Seize the test of the
offending student, or
B. Allow the testing to continue
without interruption,
informing the offending student at the e end of the period
about the offense.
VI. Faculty members may respond to cheating in any of
the
following ways:
A. Give a failing grade on the
exam ("F" or zero).
B. Give a failing grade in the
course.
C. Refer the matter for
disciplinary action to the Office
of Student Affairs.
VII. Scope: These policies cover all classes in the
Department of Art.
Safety:
Students will be alerted to potentially hazardous materials used in class. However, any art lab contains many potentially hazardous materials and equipment. No one is allowed to use any chemicals or equipment until they have successfully completed an orientation including safe handling techniques. All students are responsible for reading the MSDS sheets for lab and following proper procedures and precautions for handling all materials. The MSDS sheets are located in the Department of Art Office, room 103 Fine Arts.
AMERICAN DISABILITIES ACT:
Students who require academic adjustments in the classroom due to a disability must first register with ASU Disability Services (972-3964 or Chickasaw Bldg. Room 410). Please contact the instructor within the first two weeks of classes. All appropriate academic accommodations will be made to insure your success in this course.
ATTENDANCE
Art 1033 and Art 1043 are governed by the Arkansas State University attendance
