| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & Teaching methods including their alignment to LOsEach taught input uses a wide variety of audio-visual resources, site visits, group discussion and activity to foster student engagement. You will engage with group workshops for exploring the application of CAD/CAM in large scale manufacture, material selction, and product analysis: Accurately assess offshore manufacturing as an option [LO1]. You will critically reflect upon Issues around costs, interlectual property and sustainibility in material procurement and manufacture [LO2&3]. Examine the relationship between UK design activity and overseas manufacture [LO4]. Produce design information and management documentation for the accurate dissemination of designed artefacts [LO5]Embedding of employability/PDP/Scholarship SkillsThe projects will explore good practice in the design industry, and with overseas manufacturers, fabrication facilities and material procurement. The module will examine the global carbon footprint of internationally manufactured goods. Guest speakers offer the opportunity for application of skills in Industry and job search strategy. Critical appraisal and reflection are also required at every assessment stage.Assessment (formative or 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 7 for a applied design project, 10 minute presentation, technical analysis [LO1&2], CAD modelling and presentation[LO5], weighted at 50% and in week 14 for an applied design project, 10 minute visual presentation with CAD modelling and presentation [LO5], cultural and economic analysis [LO 3,4] weighted at 50% [see section 18]. Presentations are made to an assessment panel and peers.Research / teaching linkagesAll teaching team members undertake scholarly activity within design and architecture allowing currency and credibility of input.
