There will be an introduction to several of the following areas: sculpture, craft, product, model making, scale, still life drawing, packaging, surface design, photography, graphic product, animation, and environment / public art. The introductions will include demonstrations of relevant processes to help support your development of your portfolio. The portfolio of work will show a progressive process though the use of research, selected precedent, creative experimentation and self evaluation. You will explore concepts through research, sampling techniques and the use of materials towards the construction of 3D outcomes in response to briefs. This module will assist you in making informed career decisions as you progress through your programme.
Building on the knowledge gained, you will explore and develop technical skills within a more focused context with greater emphasis upon research, experimentation, analysis and evaluation within two specialist areas of Art and Design and/or Media. Workshops at this stage will develop your own personal methodology enabling you to work with an increased level of creativity and independence. The evolution of a portfolio of artwork and written proposal is an essential feature of this stage. This module also serves as a precursor to your final project and will provide you with an opportunity to enter a more personal interrogation and diagnosis to identify ambitions within a specific field. In doing so, you will begin to develop the requisite professional skills necessary for progression within your chosen specialist practice. Graduate Attributes: Collaborative, Lifelong Learning.

This module will develop your knowledge and understanding of some of the critical debates and issues relevant to contemporary practice. It will provide an opportunity for you to explore wider concepts that are applicable to your subject specialism. Through a series of lectures and seminars you will explore some of the meanings, functions and intentions of practice within a dynamic set of theoretical considerations concerning the past, present and future. Research and study skills are an integral part of the module and blended learning forms part of the learning and teaching process, for example electronic checking of written work and participating in online discussions and research. This module emphasises the relevance of conceptual thinking as applied to practice.

Indicative Content:
Topics that address past, present and future theoretical issues of art and design practice will form the basis of this module.
The module will look at the links between and across fields of practice, as well as to cultural and ethical debates on relevant issues. There will be core themes for example - globalism, sustainability and ethical practices
Research and study skills such as: the use of secondary and primary research sources; analysis and critical thinking; how to write a research proposal; effective use of electronic sources, will facilitate successful completion of the written assignments.
In this module you will develop your knowledge and understanding of some of the critical debates and issues relevant to contemporary practice. It will provide an exciting opportunity for you to explore wider concepts that are applicable to your subject specialism and build on the understanding gained in the HE4 contextual module. The themes explored are also applicable to professional practice modules in respect of the role of the animator/ illustrator. This module will also feed in to the HE6 contextual module.

Research and study skills are an integral part of the module and blended learning forms part of the learning and teaching process, for example electronic checking of written work and participating in online discussions and research. This module emphasises the relevance of conceptual thinking as applied to practice and the themes and theories explored in the module should be applied to the practical modules.
This module develops and consolidates a student's ability to undertake a major research and writing project. It enables students to carry out an extended body of research on an agreed topic of their choice (appropriate to critical and contextual inquiry) relevant to Art and Practice, in conjunction with the supervisory team.
The module will focus on the various approaches to research and the two main approaches of qualitative and quantitative will be explicated. Attention will be paid to ethical research practices and that students are aware of codes of practice including the utilisation of human participants, environmental and cultural concerns relevant to their topic. Research and study skills will include: how to manage your project (time, workload and record keeping), how to undertake effective literature searches including the use of digital sources, and lastly, effective communication through a written extended assignment (including critical evaluation). These skills will be developed within the context of the subject area resulting in critical inquiry of a text/image format, for example an extended essay or extended report. It will emphasise the cultural, historical, theoretical and conceptual elements as necessary.
This research and writing module offers the opportunity to concentrate on an area or areas of creative practice from a critical, historical and theoretical perspective. You will engage in a focused inquiry, working on questions arising from the practices of other creative practitioners and writers. In this way the research journey and the extended assignment underpin other modules at this level.
This module will enable you to develop skills in research and writing alongside critical awareness of a range of creative practices. This is achieved by extending your knowledge of primary and secondary research methodologies, the adoption of appropriate styles of academic writing, and use of consistent referencing and presentation skills. The assignment will show the necessary critical and contextual awareness of HE6 academic studies. This module encourages a high degree of self-motivation and autonomy. The written work prepared for the assignment will require self-reflection, critique, time/project management and academic rigor.
The schedule will provide a structure to support your proposal, research process, writing and the final written presentation. With tutorial support, this is a module structured to support the process of undertaking significant empirical, textual and written research, with the aim of developing contextual and conceptual awareness of the practices of others. This module underpins and strengthens the skills, knowledge and understanding acquired in previous modules in first and second year. It represents an opportunity to synthesise theory and practice through a self-initiated research project of an appropriate standard for this level.
Based on a student-initiated topic in negotiation with your tutor, this module commences with a proposal form, which is attached at the back of this Guide and available on Moodle for downloading. You may have completed this in the latter part of 2nd year (HE5) and had a topic approved, If you have neither of these then a short proposal form must be completed at this point. See the form at the back of this Module Guide. For contemporary practitioners, understanding the complexities of visual language and having an authoritative voice is important.
Being able to respond to contemporary issues and communicate effectively helps define and strengthen your practice and confidence. In consultation with your tutor, you will utilise your proposal for research that will culminate in an extended written project of 4,000 to 6,000 words (including quotations).
