  1. ART 161 – Ceramics IInstructional Plan for Kelsey Community College Brooke Amick Instructional Plan Template | Slide 1

  2. Gap Analysis • What’s currently available at NVCC… • No fine arts program or courses • Slim selection of humanities courses that incorporate art history/appreciation • What should be available… • Arts program classes based on the instruction of artistic expression and technique • Classes in drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpture, digital media, etc. • Recommendation for beginning to fill the gap… • Ceramics I – Introduction to ceramic materials and techniques Instructional Plan Template | Slide 2

  3. Needs Assessment • This is a learning problem • Other schools are offering similar courses • Students are not yet demanding these courses • Ceramics I is offered at many community colleges • Mesa Community College • ART 161 – Ceramics I (2010) • Arizona Western College • ART 203 – Ceramics I (2010) Instructional Plan Template | Slide 3

  4. Needs Assessment Continued • According to AARP, the growing number of older students cite pleasure and a desire to learn about new subjects as their number two reason for returning to school (Keenan and Barrett, 2009). • According to CommunityCollegeReview.com, “Besides coursework focusing on academic programs, courses are also often offered at the community college for personal growth or development” (Chen, 2008, para. 1).

  5. Needs Assessment Continued • Stakeholders • Part-time & Full-time Students • Degree seeking and Non-degree Seeking Students • Older and younger students • NVCC Faculty, Class Instructor • Kelsey Community • City of Kelsey – Art Projects or Programs • Local Artists • Local Galleries or Art Shows • Local Craft Supply Stores Instructional Plan Template | Slide 5

  10. Summative Assessment & Learning Outcomes • Final Ceramic Art Portfolio • The learners will compile a portfolio that illustrates (with photos, drawings, etc.) 10 ceramic pieces they have created over the course of the class. • The portfolio pieces will be graded by a rubric that judges them on construction, aesthetic quality, functionality, and finish.

  11. Learner Characteristics • Gender: • Both female and male learners will be represented • A slightly higher percentage of females can reasonably be expected considering past gender trends in two-year institutions • Age: • All age groups are welcome and expected to participate in this course • Though a majority of younger students is expected • Education: • Learners will have some high school, have completed high school, or have their GED • It is expected that some life long learners with bachelor or advanced degrees will participate Instructional Plan Template | Slide 11

Learner Characteristics Cont. • Cultural Background: • All ethnicities will be represented • Prerequisite Skills: • No prerequisite skills are required for this course, implying a broad range of skill levels will be present • Learner attitudes: • The learners choose this elective class • Learners will have high intrinsic motivation and curiosity about ceramic art • Learning styles: • All learning styles will be represented • Visual and kinesthetic learning styles may be pervasive Instructional Plan Template | Slide 12

  13. Learner Characteristics & Implications • Implications • Demographically diverse group of learners • Range of skill and aptitude levels • Therefore Instruction Must Incorporate … • Several learning styles • Individualized projects that appeal to different proficiency levels • Learner -centered Environment Instructional Plan Template | Slide 13

  14. Learning Context • Instructional Setting: • Studio classroom - classroom with ceramic equipment and a workshop layout • Resources: • Instructor, peers, instructional material, worktables, kiln, sink, potter’s wheels, wedging table, storage shelves, ceramic tools, glazes, etc. • Constraints: • Classroom setting, little real-world application Instructional Plan Template | Slide 14

  15. Learning Context Continued • Application Setting: • Learners may never take this skill outside the classroom • Other venues may include home-based ceramic projects and local community art centers or programs • Resources: Vary depending on individual’s own ceramic supplies and expanse of the community art center or program • Constraints: Lack of space and equipment • In order to encourage outside continuation of ceramic art, the course will incorporate some projects that can easily be created at home and list non-classroom resources for ceramics. Instructional Plan Template | Slide 15

  16. Delivery Modality • Based on the learning context and learning characteristics, a synchronous, in-classroom delivery modality was selected. • Instructor-led course that will incorporate some outside sources through videos, PowerPoint presentations, and a guest speaker • This is will be a Knowledge-Centered Environment • Learners will focus on attaining the rudimentary skills and principles involved in Ceramic Art Instructional Plan Template | Slide 16
