Vision Art and Design Learner's Book 3

VISION PUBLISHING LOWER SECONDARY ART AND DESIGN LEARNER'S BOOK 3

Vocational education or skilled-based education is in this era a top priority for all countries that seek to advance their economic development. It is also fast becoming a career of choice for many due to the abundant opportunities for employment or self-employment. Art & Design provides opportunities in drawing. painting, illustration, graphics design, printmaking, ceramics, crafts, etc.

This New Vision Art and Design Book Three is a continuation of Books One and Two. It is practical and espouses the true attributes of a vocational subject. Throughout this book, emphasis has been put not on merely what the learner knows (knowledge), but rather what she/he can do (skill/applicability) with the acquired knowledge to solve real-life problems in the community. The book is structured for the learner to not only delight in learning Art and Design, but to develop an eye to spot opportunities where he/she can use their knowledge and skills to solve real- life problems and earn an income.

Generic skills, essential life skills and values, as well as appreciation of other cross-cutting issues have been catered for in this Book. In line with the National Development Plan objectives of increasing sustainable production, productivity and value addition, this Art & Design Book intends to transform the learner into a model citizen, whose technical and vocational training shall prepare him to be a job creator rather than a job seeker.
