| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Teaching and learning takes place predominantly in a creative studio environment. 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. You will undertake analytical exercises exploring properties of materials and processes (LO1) Exploring material properties and selctions criteria for design applications (LO2) Material selection in relation to desired shape and manufacturing process capability. (LO3) How material finish affects design outcome (LO4 ) How post processing can improve a materials performance (LO5) In response to design briefs, detailing and specification will be visualised with CAD modelling software.A comprehensive understanding of materials and processes is necessary to achieve design outcomes within specific industry resources. Knowledge of CAD software is vital in achieving employment in design or related disciplines. Analysis, processing of complex data, visual communication and working with others are key transferable skills
|
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, (week 7).This will help to direct your learning prior to submission of work for summative assessment.
|
Summative assessment will take place through submission of a portfolio of work in response to coursework assignments. 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. Submissions will be assessed based on assessment criteria provided within thecoursework assignment briefs at the beginning of each project. These assessmentcriteria 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). Portfolio submission represents 100% of the module grade. Summative assessment is in Week 14.
