Welcome to Artsy English.
See course overview for how this course could be a combination English Art course, an English-heavy course or an Art-heavy course.
Term one will involve studying a novel and/or some short texts. Alongside the study of our text, you can expect conversations and activities about the concepts and content of the novel. This could take the form of creating things using digital tools and discussions about how to connect the novel to our world.
After our initial novel, there will be the opportunity to get started on an assessment. Students often choose to work on one of these options:
- English 2.6 - Create a visual text (3 credits)
- English 2.4 - Writing folio (6 credits)
- Visual Arts 2.3 - Approach to design briefs (4 credits)
If you're thinking of joining this course but hope to complete a branding/design folio, that is still available. Term 1 will give you either the opportunity to get underway with your art work, or complete an English internal or two! If this is you, please discuss with Beth before joining, as we will need to make a plan for how your year will go!
This class will require attention, a keen work ethic and the willingness and patience to engage in large projects. If you simply must be on Tik Tok and taking selfies, this isn't the class for you!
