Use Your Skills to Your Advantage!
There is no generation of people that is more internet savvy than yours! You know how to search the web to find answers to the questions you have. That skill set can be very valuable for this course. Many of the artworks we will be study in class are fairly unknown to the western way of thinking. To learn about these pieces you have to be able to search the web for the best content available. Here I have compiled a list of several websites that I think are useful to our curriculum along with descriptions of them.

Kahn Academy |
The AP 250 Required Works With Essays & Videos
Kahn Academy is an amazing online education platform. There is an AP Art History curriculum being developed on the site. Awesome new videos are consistently being shot and uploaded. This is a good go to place to check out when you know you will be or have already missed material in class.

Art History Resources Site MapThis is a very comprehensive source of information on many historical cultures and art movements. The delivery of the content is simple, but if you can stay focused this site can teach you tons of stuff you would have to search for hours and hours to find

U of U |
University of Utah International & Area StudiesSome of our pieces have very little published information on them. The University of Utah, with the help of their area professors have put on a series of art history lectures based upon some of the lesser known art works from the APAH curriculum. These videos are comprehensive and full of insight!

Crash Course: History ChannelThese humorous YouTube videos do a good job of explaining different world religions and cultures, which is very helpful when we begin to learn about the art work from other parts of the world

There are too many great websites on here to list. If your feeling stuck this would be a great place to come and explore for a while. The site is geared towards teachers, but who's to say that students can use this information just as effectively!
