How do the courses work?
ArteEscuela.com courses are organized around a structure composed of modules, themes and lessons:
- The modules are large thematic areas on the same subject. Each module is composed of a series of topics.
- Topics are sections that separate more specific content areas within the module. Each topic is composed of a variable number of lessons of different types.
- The lessons are the classes of the course. There are different types of lessons: in some you will find explanatory videos; in others, practical exercises... You can check what type of lessons are available here.
- In order to progress correctly through the platform it will be necessary to complete each of the lessons that we propose.
What types of lessons can I find in the courses?
You will find a variety of lessons within the ArteEscuela.com courses. Each type of lesson will propose different types of content and a series of differentiated actions to be completed.
This is the general classification of the lessons you will find:- Theoretical lessons: these lessons are mainly composed of an explanatory video in which your teacher will address the contents of the course.
- Practical lessons: these lessons usually include an explanatory video accompanied by a series of instructions for the performance of a practical lesson. In many cases you will find attached material so that you can get down to work.
- Lessons for the delivery of practices: these lessons are intended solely for the delivery of the practices carried out and will consist of a web form intended for this purpose.
Tip: You will easily distinguish the practice lessons and the practice delivery lessons because we will let you know with their name and other indications.
- Some lessons have annexes. The annexes are downloadable materials (usually PDF documents or images) that serve either as educational support or as necessary material for the realization of the practices.
How are the different lessons completed?
Completing the lessons is fundamental to guarantee your progress within the course, as well as being the best way to facilitate your follow up.
Each type of lesson requires a differentiated set of actions to be completed effectively. As a general rule, the lessons are completed according to the following scheme:
- Auto-complete lessons: these lessons are auto-complete and move on to the next one automatically once the video has been fully viewed. Normally, this type of completion will be present in video lessons and practice lessons without attachments.
- Manually completed lessons: these lessons must be completed manually and do not move on to the next one automatically. Normally, this type of completion will be present in video lessons and practice lessons with attachments.
- Lessons to be completed after approval of internships: these lessons will not be completed until the internships submitted by the student have been evaluated and approved by the teaching team. Normally, this type of completion will be present in all delivery lessons.
Do I have to complete the lessons in a certain order?
As long as they are available, you can complete the lessons randomly, although we strongly recommend that you respect the order we suggest. The program we have designed is designed so that your progress is based on a good foundation that would not be possible if for any reason you skip a class.
Tip: Remember that as a student of the school, you have the possibility to repeat lessons whenever you need to. It is often a good idea to review a completed lesson to refresh concepts or approach the topic from a new perspective.
- Don't worry if at any time you have lessons pending approval and waiting to be evaluated by the teaching team. In these cases you will always be able to continue advancing in the course and you will receive a notice when your internship has been approved.
What does the internship consist of?
Whenever your teacher suggests you to do some practice, he/she usually expects a graphic document reflecting your work done within the proposal. This means that we will usually require a photo so that the teaching staff can evaluate it.
The delivery of practices will be done in lessons that we have enabled for this purpose and where you will also find the instructions for uploading them to the platform.
What do the attached materials consist of?
The annexed materials are complementary files attached to a specific lesson that can be used either to expand the theoretical information of the explanatory content or as material and proposals for the realization of a practice. As a general rule, these attachments will consist of PDF files or image formats.
Tip: Whenever you find a lesson with accompanying materials , we will indicate this in some way in the lesson itself and give you instructions for downloading.
Do I have to remember where I left off to pick up the course later?
Not at all. In addition to being able to easily distinguish incomplete lessons in the course index, we have included a button on your student page for this purpose so that you don’t have to keep track of the last lesson completed.
You will find this button under your active courses with the name “Resume course”.
- Please note that the "Resume course" button will take you by default to the first of all the lessons you have to complete at that moment, so sometimes you will be placed in lessons pending approval, for example, practices that are waiting for validation by teachers.
How can I contact the teacher?
You can contact the teacher by sending an e-mail to profesor@arteescuela.com. Our teaching team will try to get back to you as soon as possible.
