| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & teaching methods including their alignment to LOsThe module is designed to help you a range of design research and visualisation methods (drawing, 3D modelling, CAD) through design practice in a creative studio environment (1-4). Each taught input uses a wide variety of audio-visual resources, group discussion and activity to foster group engagement in a studio environment. We will also ask you to undertake peer reviews to develop your self reflective and critical skills. (4,5) Embedding of employability/ PDP/ scholarship skillsThroughout the module projects and tasks are explained and put into context of how and why they are used in industry. In addition Critical appraisal and reflection are also required at every assessment stage. You are asked to present and evaluate arguments, information and ideas which are core to the discipline of design.Assessment (formative and summative)You will undertake two studio design projects. Formative assessment will precede the submission and/or presentation of completed design assignments. This may take the form of a one to one discussion with your tutor and /or in a larger year group discussion, which will give you a broader context to your feedback. If the project involves industry collaboration then feedback from our external partner will also be received. You will be asked to report on your directed study task either verbally, or visual through sketch books or digital platforms. The point of feedback is to be both critical and constructive to develop your confidence and allow practise of public speaking and voicing opinions. With-in this module formative assessment will be continually given on for progress. At key stages of the module you will be given more directed summative assessment on your finished out puts. You will also be given a dedicated one to one meeting with your module leader to discuss all your feedback and assessment data.
