CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION COURSE OPTIONS TO FULFILL GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS IN ART

Traditional Art Credit

All students are required to complete one unit of credit in the Arts in order to fulfill their graduation requirements. The State Education Department publication, Studio In Art: A Comprehensive Foundation Course, is the course recommended to meet the one unit of credit graduation requirement in visual arts. http://www.emsc.nysed.gov/ciai/arts/pub/sumart.pdf.

Career and Technical Education Options:

There are approved Career and Technical Education (CTE) options for students who choose visual arts to fulfill the graduation requirement of one unit of credit in the arts. Students may take Design and Drawing for Production (DDP) to receive one unit of credit in the visual arts. Schools may also offer the State-approved alternative of Housing and Environment Core (½ unit) and Clothing and Textile Core (½ unit) to receive that credit.

1. Design and Drawing for Production (DDP)

Design and Drawing for Production (DDP) is an approved course to meet the one unit of arts graduation requirement for all students. The DDP syllabus is aligned with Standard 5 of the Mathematics, Science and Technology Learning Standards and the Visual Arts Learning Standards. Teachers certified in art education or technology education must provide instruction using the State developed DDP syllabus to fulfill the arts credit. It may be used as part of the technology education curriculum or as part of the art education curriculum.

For information on the alignment of visual arts and technology standards in DDP see http://www.emsc.nysed.gov/ciai/mst/pub/techddp.pdf

2. Housing and Environment, and Clothing and Textiles Core Courses

The combined Housing and Environment Core (1/2 unit) and the Clothing and Textile Core (1/2 unit) may be used to fulfill the one credit of arts study required for graduation for all students. For information on the alignment of visual arts and the Family and Consumer Sciences standards in the combined Housing and Environment Core (1/2 unit) and the Clothing and Textile Core (1/2 unit) go to Infusing Visual Arts Into The Career Development and Occupational Studies Learning Standards: A Supplement to Family and Consumer Sciences - Housing and Environment, and Clothing and Textiles Core Courses at www.emsc.nysed.gov/cte/facse/.

Background

The State Education Department convened a group of Family and Consumer Sciences (FACS) and Visual Arts teachers from across the State. The teachers reviewed the Housing and Environment Core and Clothing and Textile core courses, CDOS Learning Standard 3b - Arts and Humanities, and the commencement level Visual Arts Learning Standards. The group of teachers then assessed the alignment of the Housing and Environment Core and Clothing and Textile Core courses with the CDOS and Visual Arts Learning Standards.

Criteria

The Housing and Environment Core and Clothing and Textile Core courses were found to share CDOS Learning Standard 3b - Arts and Humanities and the commencement level Visual Arts Learning Standards.

Charts illustrating the specific alignment of each content topic found in the Housing and Environment Core and Clothing and Textile Core courses with the key ideas of CDOS Learning Standard 3b - Arts and Humanities and the performance indicators of the Visual Arts commencement level Learning Standards are provided to assist FACS teachers in the development of an art-infused curriculum. Sample integrated activities within each content topic are described.
