1. Why Art literacy is important in your course and its relevance?

- Design thinking, creativity, and critical thinking are all aided by arts
literacy. Combining creativity and literacy can be a powerful teaching tool.
It allows us to participate in literacy by acting out plays with characters
they've created or by creating props. It enables children to use their
imaginations. Art literacy is important in our art appreciation subject
because it allows us to better understand the meaning or beauty of an art.

2. Why crafts are so important?

- Crafts help students develop an appreciation for visual aesthetics and
serve as building blocks for their development. Crafts can also help you
relax and relieve stress. Understanding how and why something is made
is more important in modern life than ever. Craft is a material,
provenance, and making-language. It is learning the worth of things, and it
can also assist students in advancing and refining their core skills.
