This module enables you to demonstrate to a high level, the practical and theoretical skills accumulated during the course as set out in your Learning Agreement and amended after the Negotiated Project 2 module. It provides you with the opportunity to determine and deliver, through exhibition or other appropriate public means, a fully consolidated and resolved programme of study as manifest in your resulting artefacts and research.

The module is the culmination of all your preceding project work and represents a sustained and in-depth body of work using the relevant practical and research skills you have acquired during the course.

During the module you will continue to produce and refine your project work with relevent research supported by tutorials. You will work closely with your Academic Advisor and subject mentors to produce an appropriate 'exhibition' of your work alongside your peers. This negotiation of a coherent and well designed final presentation in exhibition form will be the focus of your group and team learning at the end of the course.

Portfolio to be negotiated with the supervisor will consist of:-

Coursework (100%)
The exact nature and content being identified by the student, with appropriate staff help, in the Learning Agreement. It will probably take the form of experimental and other practical work relating to artefacts and images plus associated research that underpins the project. {Learning Outcomes 1- 10]

OR

Coursework (75%)
The exact nature and content being identified by the student, with appropriate staff help, in the Learning Agreement. It will probably take the form of experimental and other practical work relating to artefacts and images plus associated research that underpins the project. {Learning Outcomes 1-10]
AND
Project Logbook
(25%) This should demonstrate the use of an appropriate logbook form and set out your project ideas in relation to your aims and objectives. It should identify your practical and research methods and demonstrate how you are using them to inform your project. It should also begin to evidence your ability to critically evaluate, over a period of time, your ideas and concerns. [Learning Outcomes 1-10]

As appropriate to your individual proposal and identified and ameded in the Learning Agreement.

Students are expected to take advantage of the extensive facilities available within the University; keeping abreast of current developments through appropriate periodicals and being aware of the work of major practitioners in their subject.

Negotiated access to studios and workshop facilities and technical support appropriate to the representational resources you employ.
Slide Projection facilities and suitable accommodation for the presentation of work.
Access to library and slide library.
Suitable exhibition space.

Non-specialist computing facilities for email, internet access, word processing database, spreadsheet and basic presentations will be available through LLRS/ITS facilities on campus, not from within the School itself - the exception being the School's Student Browsers based in studios which will support email and internet access.

Specialist skills for Art and Design modules are delivered, at the appropriate level, within dedicated workshop units. These skills packages have been developed to be offered to all students across awards to enhance and develop their abilities and also to underpin workshop use with the necessary health and safety training.

The Blackboard virtual learning environment will be available (where relevant) to support this module. Details will be supplied in the module handbook.

Independent learning with regular tutor or student led tutorials addressing issues and concerns pertinent to the development of the individual project and the final display in a public exhibition context. These will be timetabled between the student, the Academic Advisor and Subject Mentors. Dates of events will be included in the individual Learning Agreements.

In practice-based modules, appropriate student supervision beyond the stated contact learning hours is determined by the number of students enrolled on the module per semester, and will be in accordance with current health and safety requirements.
