The curriculum often includes courses on curriculum development, pedagogical strategies, assessment methods, and classroom management, all tailored to the arts discipline. Graduates of this program are equipped to inspire creativity, foster self-expression, and cultivate an appreciation for the arts among students, while also promoting interdisciplinary learning and the development of critical thinking skills..

Regulations Governing the Award of the B.Ed. Arts Degree

The College operates a semester system of studies. Each discipline offers a variety of courses, including core courses, which are compulsory to students majoring in the subjects, and Elective courses. Each course is given a credit weighting according to the time devoted to it on the timetable. Fifteen one-hour lectures and fifteen two to three-hour practical classes constitute four credits. Thus, for example, a course consisting of 30 one-hour lectures and 15 three-hour practical classes is a Twelve (12) credits course. Seminars and discussion groups are not counted in the weighting unless they make up more than a third of the total teaching hours in a course.
