Art is a central component of TED Rönesans College’s multi-dimensional and comprehensive education system. Through arts education, our goal is to raise knowledgeable and sensitive young individuals who question, inquire about and explore the world around them. We aim for students to study, analyze and explore the creative process; make designs in accordance with elements of the arts and design principles using traditional and modern art materials; develop a language of visual arts; study the meaning and value of art; and use various techniques in developing works of visual art.

We closely follow international curricula and develop the contents of our classes using contemporary education practices and methods. Our Visual Arts classes are designed around an interdisciplinary program that enables students to experience different techniques in painting, printing, marbling and three-dimensional works. As students work with various materials and learn different techniques, they improve their thinking and decision-making skills.

In line with the philosophy of lifelong learning, in middle and high school BTEC classes, our students take on the responsibility of their own paths of learning. Through daily life experience, they apply and reinforce the knowledge acquired in classwork. Arts play an important role in this process and constitute a tool for learning other class materials as well. Our BTEC Art classes are inquiry-based, where students not only acquire information but also the necessary skills and attitudes.

In our classes, monthly projects focus on one or more techniques and materials, organized around a certain theme and a related artist and art movement. At the beginning of each project, relevant art history information is presented to students. Interested students also participate in the after-school visual arts workshops.

In Visual Arts classes, the measurement and evaluation process is student-based. Each student is evaluated based on his/her own initial level and progress. The Arts department plays a significant role in all school events. Members of the Stage Design Club design and produce the sets for school events with their teachers.

On the annually organized ARTED Arts Day, students participate in various plastic arts workshops, gaining experience and having a day full of art and fun.
