Brief Description | The aim of this module is for students: tore-focus and evaluate an individual enquiry through reference to new knowledge and experience gained; to relate experiences by establishing links with relevant theoretical discourses. |
Indicative Syllabus | This module will develop the means for both establishing a link with theory and providing a context for studio work. Students will be expected to demonstrate the underlying theoretical interests that inform their practice. In the seminar programme students will be expected to present work that anticipates the work for final assessment, albeit at a formative stage. They will work on the writing or presentation of theory work, supported by individual tutorials. The seminar presentation will comprise an area of theory investigated that directly supports and anticipates the body of studio work presented for final assessment. The paper will consist of a rationale for and explanation of the main idea and an account of the reasoning leading to realisation. There will be evidence of an understanding of context, and critical reflection. Proposals should set out a clearly defined topic, aims and objectives. Completed work should demonstrate awareness of appropriate methodology, incorporate well-constructed argument that is supported with evidence, lead to a conclusion and show awareness of relevant current debates. |
Learning Outcomes | By the end of this module the student should: 1. have demonstrated critical awareness of progress and an ability to provide a rationale for the work; |
