| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Teaching and learning involve 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 (LO4). Through studio project briefs you will apply programming and physical hardware prototyping (LO2,3). Hardware and Software prototyping will allow you to test your understanding through design briefs (LO 1-4) Embedding of employability/ PDP/ scholarship skills in art 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 must now consider a wider ranging, spectrum of tools. This module introduces some of the tools and their application, which is pertinent in current trends in design practice. Not only will the skills developed, allow students to evolve into 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 ofboth visual and physical communication
|
Assessment (formative and summative) Formative assessment. is provided throughout the module within personal and group tutorials and interim reviews/critiques. There is a formal assessment point at week 7 involving a presentation that covers LOs 2&4. At this point, the assessment is a proposal for the summative assessment due in week 13. You will present your initial concepts for your summative assessment and receive feedback from your peers (staff and students). You will use the feedback to improve on your work for the summative assessment
|
Summative assessment occurs in week 13 where you are expected to deliver an interactive experience that explores human centred design (LOs 1-4). You will engage directly with theories of interaction design to produce a real-world artefact. You will design for spaces, products and installations that interact with the people who use them, pass through them, or simply come into proximity with them. Your artefacts should aim to fundamentally affect the identity of public, corporate, retail, and cultural spaces, offering the possibility of creating connections between environments and the public.
