Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Teaching and learning is predominantly lecture based with group tutorials, delivered in smaller groups. A variety of audio visual resources, group discussion and self directed methods (independent learning and study) will be used. These methods are designed to foster and underpin student engagement and academic progression, whilst sensitive to a range of learning styles. Students will undertake exercises exploring and comparing popular and common sense assumptions within design and culture (LO1) discussing and explaining key theories in contemporary design (LO2) expressing personal opinion alongside received opinion to frame arguments (LO3) comparing and contrasting dichotomies in design and consumerism (LO4 ) considering and summarising theories in design using verbal and written presentation skills (LO5) In response to assignment briefs, ideas and observations will be expressed through verbal presentations and formal essay writing.
|
Formative feedback is provided throughout the module in class from peers and tutors during regular group discussions and presentations of work in progress. Formative assessment will take place at midway points during scheduled learning activities. This will help to direct your learning prior to submission of work for summative assessment.This will take place in weeks 8 and 12
|
Summative assessment will take place through submission of a portfolio of work in response to each of the coursework assignments. Portfolio submission provides an opportunity to demonstrate learning across all learning outcomes for the module. The portfolio is due in week 14. This submission constitutes 100% of the overall summative module grade. The portfolio will present your account of the tasks you have undertaken throughout the module as you have gained and developed an understanding of design practice, along with all required deliverable outputs specified in the coursework briefs. In practice, this might look like a pdf or printed process book presenting the story of the development of each project, plus deliverables created according to specifications set in the project brief.Submissions will be assessed based on assessment criteria provided within the coursework assignment briefs at the beginning of each project. These assessment criteria are mapped onto the learning outcomes for the module allowing you to clearly demonstrate evidence of achievement of the learning outcomes for the module (LOs1-5).
