of media art; and
(2) Analyze and
refine works of media art by emphasizing expressive elements and understand the

presentations could be improved.
3. Understanding and evaluating, alone and
with others, how media art conveys meaning, which must be determined by

relationships between components and style in works of media art; and
(2) How a variety of forms, methods and
styles in works of media art can be used to influence the experience of the

(b) Interpret the meaning in works of media
art, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to use intent, form and
context to interpret the meaning of a work of media art.
(c) Apply prescribed criteria to evaluate
works of visual art, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to use context
to select criteria for evaluating the context of works of media art and
processes for producing media art in order to provide constructive
feedback.
4. Using
external context when creating, evaluating and finding personal meaning in
media art, which must be determined by evaluating the ability of the pupil to:
(a) Apply and relate knowledge and personal
