ADVANCED PLACEMENT STUDIO ART: 2-D DESIGN Credit 1 unit Recommended Prerequisites Honors Visual Arts (Proficient) and Honors Visual Arts (Advanced) Note: It is recommended that Honors Visual Arts (Advanced) be taken the semester before Advanced Placement Studio Art. Advanced Placement Studio Art: 2-D Design is a rigorous, experiential course which results in the creation of a portfolio containing five actual works and twenty-four slides using a variety of art forms. The works in the portfolio must exhibit proficiency in three categories: quality, breadth, and concentration. Students are required to work outside the classroom and beyond scheduled periods. In addition, students may be asked to provide their own materials depending on their choice of media. At the end of the course the student’s portfolio will be evaluated by the College Board. In this manner, students may possibly earn course exemption and/or credit at the college/university of their choice.
