Learning Outcomes for Module | |
---|---|
On completion of this module, students are expected to be able to: | |
1 | Apply a personal conceptual, critical and analytical framework and apply it to self defined specialist subject projects and self-directed study. |
2 | Use a range of methods to conduct personal research, which demonstrate appropriate selection of materials, processes and technologies together with relevant theories, concepts and principles to inform subject specialist understanding and personal direction(s) within Three Dimensional Design. |
3 | Recognise the relationship between personal, creative and professional development and their opportunities relevant to a defined professional context. |
4 | Demonstrate an understanding of their design practice within a wider professional context. |
Indicative Module Content |
---|
Specialist study in jewellery, ceramics & glass, product. Manufacturing & Production processes. Self - directed design projects Development of design concepts, which address particular market/user needs. Design work appropriate to a professional context. The module continues to apply, integrate and test new learning through progressively more advanced and more professional integrated design practice which is now selfâinitiated and directed. Design practice continues to be underpinned through the relationship with critical and contextual studies. Completed project work should evidence an awareness and consideration of sustainable themes in a manner appropriate to the context of the discipline. |
Module Delivery |
---|
The module continues to apply, integrate and test new learning through progressively advanced and more complex integrated design practice which is now self initiated and directed. Design practice continues to be underpinned through the relationship with critical and contextual studies; this module enables the student to locate their work in a wider context through a seminar programme aimed at introducing wider cultural implications to their own written and oral presentations. |
