CREATIVE AND PERFORMING ARTS DEPARTMENT (ART)
READING LISTS AND PRACTICAL REQUIREMENTS
Important Notes: Some of the following recommended reading and resource materials may not be locally available to you. Consult with your CVC Course Supervisor or contact your area CVC Instruction Coordinator in order to locate copies of missing items, or to find or propose suitable substitute study material for the course in question. This means that students can, if they desire, develop their own reading and study proposals for each course from locally available reference and reading materials. Most courses have a wide range of reference items to choose from. Generally speaking, students will be expected to have read at least 75% of the suggested items, or a specific amount where indicated, or some suitable substituted equivalent in order to qualify for credits. But, in order to have a better grasp or understanding of the subject, it is suggested that you complete above this minimum requirement. (If WND articles are not available, they do not need to be considered as part of the 75%.) Depending on the courses studied, students may need to find additional reference material that is more current or deals more specifically or in greater depth in the areas they are studying. (See also Appendix B: Supplementary Courses and Resources, for further ideas and study alternatives.)
The reading lists are not arranged in order of priority. They are arranged as follows: First MLs (listed in alphabetical order for ease of locating titles you may be looking for); then after the * * *, all other articles listed by pub or book name. We thought it would be most convenient for you if all the HTL articles were listed together, and all the Mop items were listed together, etc., so that when you are reading an article in a certain book (such as HTL), you can easily locate all the related HTL articles at the same time. These pubs and books are listed in alphabetical order. (Please note: The titles listed below refer to authorized versions of Family literature only.)
There is one blank check box at the end of each list to encourage you to add new items as they are published. Please do not be limited to making only one addition, but fill in as many new items as you think are suitable.
