A & AS Level : Art & Design (BES) (9183)

This syllabus is only available to Centers taking part in the Board Examination Systems (BES) Pilot. The Cambridge International AS and A Level Art and Design (US) syllabus considers expression and communication. Learners gain an understanding of visual perception and aesthetic experience, and the ways in which art and design creates a language of its own. Most of the work for this syllabus is practical or studio based, so that learners can develop their abilities of observation and analysis of the visual world, sensitivity, skill, personal expression and imagination. They also learn how to relate their skills to an enhanced knowledge of their own cultures, past and present, as well as an appreciation of practical design problems.
