VISUAL ARTS<br />
FIVE-YEAR PLAN (2007-2012)<br />
I. AIMS<br />
1. To develop students’ creativity and critical thinking ability<br />
2. To strengthen their abilities to appreciate and create various forms of visual arts<br />
work<br />
3. To develop students’ perceptual abilities, generic skills and meta-cognition<br />
4. To nurture their life-long interest in visual arts<br />
5. To help them acquire the sense of happiness, enjoyment and satisfaction through<br />
taking part in art activities and creation<br />
6. To help them understand that arts, technology and society are inter-dependent<br />
7. To promote local and other traditional culture and values<br />
8. To enable students to acquire a foundation for pursuing educational and career<br />
opportunities in the visual arts and creative industries<br />
9. To achieve the school aims<br />
II. SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS<br />
1. Strengths<br />
a. Visual Arts is a very interesting and creative subject. The learning atmosphere is<br />
joyful so most students are willing to learn<br />
b. The Visual Arts Room is well-equipped and the newly established Arts and<br />
Technology Room has been set up as a Macintosh computer room so as to<br />
facilitate students in the learning of computer art<br />
c. The subject teacher is professional and rich in teaching experience, and she is<br />
willing to learn and improve her teaching<br />
d. This is an elective subject so all students taking this subject have a certain level<br />
of interest and ability<br />
e. There is a number of extra-curricular visual arts school clubs, such as Visual<br />
Arts Club, Ceramics Club, Comics Club, Chinese Painting Club, Chinese<br />
Calligraphy Club and Photography Club which enhance the students’ interest<br />
and art-making ability<br />
f. As the teacher knows the importance of making good use of external resources,<br />
she always arranges for students to take part in art activities organized by<br />
external art associations so as to broaden their horizons, such as joining the<br />
Artists Residence Scheme<br />
2. Weaknesses<br />
a. Because of the curriculum integration of Art, Music and Home Economics<br />
subjects at junior level, the teaching time of Visual Arts in junior level has been<br />
shortened, so there is doubt whether students can have a good foundation in<br />
visual arts when they want to take Visual Arts as their elective subject<br />
