LEARNING OUTCOMES BASED CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK (LOCF) For UNDER-GRADUATE PROGRAMMES in Visuals Arts & Performing Arts

1) The learning outcomes are formulated to help students understand the objectives of the visual and performing arts courses at the undergraduate level and to get them acquainted with contemporary artistic and social needs. Students will be enabled to understand the philosophy behind their art and master the grammar and techniques of their chosen art form, develop artistic skills that would enhance their expression and communication abilities

2) Students will also be encouraged to explore and express their ideas and concepts, as well as to learn to use their art form creatively and critically; to learn to develop their understanding of the gained knowledge and to search for ways to express their thoughts and feelings through their medium of art.

3) While selecting and designing materials for the syllabus, the faculty in Departments/Universities/Institutions may decide to vary their course content, with justifications. Objectives and organizing principles should be finalized keeping in view the local, regional, national, and global contexts of creation, appreciation, and evaluation.

4) This LOCF document is not prescriptive, but indicative. It does not prevent further rethinking or inclusion of specific elements in their courses, to suit the local context.

5) The organization of the course may be structured to suit the institution's academic framework (annual, trimester, semester, etc.).

6) Suitable modules could incorporate residencies, internships, interaction with gurus, etc, and appropriate credits awarded for the same.

7) Further, teaching-learning processes may be suitably adapted, incorporating the similarities and diversities of culture and art practices.

8) The Department/University/Institute may encourage its facultyto make suitable pedagogical innovations, in addition to teaching/learning processes suggested in the LOCF recommendations

9) The committee noted a diversity of nomenclatures in the Visual Arts fields in different Department/University/Institution and suggests the need for uniform nomenclature to avoid confusion in admissions/appointments. For example, an undergraduate program in Fine Arts could be called: Bachelor of Fine Arts (with specialization in Painting, Sculpture, Applied Arts, etc)

10) The courses designed could go beyond the primary field of study and expose students to domains such as literature, cinema, and the digital arts.
