Minor content
The minor subjects has four pillars: a) thematic work, b) arts disciplines (visual arts, drama, dance and music), c) art pedagogy, d) projects. Students are also able to make their own choices in addition to mandatory components. An example of this is 'Professional Skills' (part of 'arts education'), where students hone their skills in a chosen direction (e.g. song accompaniment, various visual techniques, ...). This not only do there is scope for exchange and sharing of good practices. The students form a close-knit group that would lead to a grand art project that is part of the completion of the minor.
Structure of the minor
- Thematic Work = 5 EC
- Arts disciplines = 10 EC
- Arts Education = 5 EC
- Projects = 10 EC
Students get to know the A&C competencies, which mean that they start with their own development (skills and knowledge in the various disciplines, art history and theory). From this starting point they develop the competencies required to teach the disciplines in a responsible way in the (international) primary schools. In Arts Education the focus is on the child: why is it so important to teach the arts, what does it mean for the general development of the children? And as soon as we have a clear(er) idea about that: what and how are we going to realize this? We learn how to incorporate this in the curricula used in international schools. Various Projects in the programme offer many possibilities to deepen this learning.
