This OER focuses on using specific American Indian artworks as examples for understanding design terms through an Art Appreciation survey course discussion revolving around the question, “What is Art?” The terms covered include, but are not limited to the following: style, content, subject ma er, form, nonobjective, abstract, naturalistic, representational, outsider, insider.
The primary pedagogical approaches will be engaging students in dialogue and allowing for a broader visual vocabulary through the study of American Indian works of Art, both contemporary and past. The discussions will give additional context to the work through information relating to the artists and their communities. A rubric will be utilized to assess the discussions.
