Brief Description	This final practical module provides the opportunity to propose, and present in exhibition, a major body of photographic work demonstrating resolution of ideas and accomplishment appropriate at this advanced level of study. The finished body of work should achieve thematic and artistic consistency and reflect a synthesis of knowledge, experience, invention and skills.
Indicative Syllabus	Students realise a coherently developed body of work, which is regarded as the resolution of issues identified and tested through previous levels of the course. A written proposal provided by the student will initiate the dialogue between student and tutor in order to achieve an agreement of the proposed aims and objectives, content, timescale and the methodology for presentation. This study agreement will provide the core descriptor for the individual project. The final presentation of practical work should be accompanied by the learning agreement, a 'notebook' including relevant research material created during planning and completion of project and a reflective written evaluation and contextualisation of the final work. This final written piece should be suitable to serve as accompaniment to the exhibited body of work.
