In this module you will produce a portfolio of professional knowledge, skills and critical reflection on your advertising practice. An individual Learning Agreement (LA) will be negotiated with the module leader to define an appropriate level of output commensurate with Level 11. You will critically analyse and evaluate your experiences and activities within your field of expertise in advertising and present your findings in a portfolio of creative and/or strategic professional work that has been agreed in the LA, supported by a reflective report of 5000 words. It will be possible for you to work creatively in a pair with another student whatever the circumstances, within either an industry placement or a simulated advertising-industry practice if work-based learning is not possible. You will identify your specific contribution to each component of partnered-work that you have created, while reflecting on the collaborative learning experience.Student-centred learning is supported by the development of an individual LA. In this LA you will reflect on how you develop your portfolio by using a reflective model or framework. You will learn how to write learning outcomes at level 11 and explore the different types of evidence that might be used within the portfolio and establish a deep understanding of the processes involved in critical thinking.
