Art Fundamentals is an art history course that is taught, not from the traditional linear, chronological-historical perspective, but from the broader view of looking at the universal language of art through the study of theory, terminology, themes, design principles, media and the history of the visual arts across time and diverse cultures. A rich variety of assessments and assignments offer students, with differing learning styles, the tools to build meaning while acquiring an understanding of the conceptual goals that are reflected in the student learning outcomes established for the course. Through the organization and presentation of course materials, students are constantly prompted to think about the most fundamental of questions in relation to art, "What is art?"

"From the very first time I experienced Blackboard (WebCT) as a student just five short years ago, I was impressed with its capabilities to promote learner-centered teaching. To have my course recognized as a Blackboard Exemplary Course is extremely rewarding. I feel as though the course management system and I worked together to create an art history course that can serve as a model for best practices in the growth of online education at my outstanding institution of higher learning, Pasadena City College."
