Subject outline
In this subject we introduce third year primary education students to teaching the Visual Arts (Visual Arts and Media) and the Performing Arts (Dance, Drama, Music). For each arts subject students receive both practical skills and theoretical knowledge. Hands-on workshops enable students to develop a broad repertoire of skills, processes and resources. Attention is given to integrating arts subjects and using the arts to enhance other areas of learning.
