Additional Information:This module gives students the opportunity to undertake set projects relevant to their chosen studio specialism. The module encourages directed experimentation with materials, processes and media. Outcomes must be presented via the student's ongoing web portfolio. The early stages of the module should support the transition to more independent and self-directed learning characteristic to Level 6.
