Secondary Fine Arts. Alaska Curriculum Guide. First Edition.
Alaska State Dept. of Education, Juneau.
Designed as a model to aid school districts as they develop and review their own curriculum guides, this secondary level fine arts guide is divided into four sections covering visual arts, music, drama, and dance. Each of the four sections follows a standard format. A preface describes the goals of fine arts education in Alaska and the organization of the particular curriculum. Topics, learning outcomes, and sample learning objectives for teaching the content area in grades 9-12 are then provided in chart form. The curriculum on visual arts outlines learning outcomes and sample objectives for media, tools, forming processes; visual structure; subject matter; art form; cultural context; and art theory and criticism. The music curriculum is organized around instrumental skills; choral skills; general music appreciation; music history and literature; and music theory. The drama curriculum outlines learning objectives and outcomes for introduction to theater; performance skills and self-expression; design and technical theater skills; directing and management skills; and playwriting. The dance guide details curriculum outcomes for qualities of movement; elements of rhythm; creative expression; dance as part of culture and heritage; enjoyment, skill, and fitness; and integration of dance with other arts.
