| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & teaching methods including their alignment to LOs 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 software exercises exploring basic programming (LO1) and how it can be utilised for different design applications (LO2) and understand how to make software perform for your design needs (LO5). Through studio project briefs you will apply programming and physical hardware prototyping (LO2,3), and 2D/3D/4D design development methods (LO4). Hardware and Software prototyping will allow you to test your understanding through design briefs (LO 1-5) Embedding of employability/ PDP/ scholarship skillsDigital arts and design in general are being changed by the greater integration of mobile computing or experience-based solutions. The event and effect of something is often just as important as its casing or display, as a result designers now have to consider a wider ranging, spectrum of tools. This module introduces some of the tools and their application, which is so pertinent in current trends in design practice. Not only will the skills developed, allow students to evolve in to practitioners with a cutting edge skill set, but the module will build on the professional need for designers who can analyse and interpret new opportunities, process complex data and generate new methods of both visual and physical communication.Assessment (formative and summative)Formative assessment is provided throughout the module within personal and group tutorials and interim reviews/critiques. Summative assessment occurs twice on this module: in week 6 for Software Based interactive experiences (human centred research, design development [LO 2,
