Overview of Assessment
Assessment in this course is progressive and will require demonstrated competence in one or more of the following ways:
Practical projects, drawings and documentation, visual and oral presentations, written assignments, CAD modelling, digital presentations, visual recognition tests, written reports and studio based activities.
All assignments will have set due dates which must be adhered to. Late submission of work will carry a penalty but may be considered by prior arrangement if supported with a medical certificate or other appropriate documentation.
Assessment Tasks
Progressive assessment will be used to gauge the student’s individual progress and completion of all class assignments/exercises. This will also include presentation of an A4 folio comprising all class notes, student notes, etc, bound and divided into easily accessible, clearly labelled sections, all digitally saved works completed weekly and an A3 document in PDF format of the completed project.
Basis of Assessment
Ability to:
1. Prepare to model in a 3D environment
2. Produce Architectural 3D Models and Detailed Models complete with Fenestrations
3. Produce 2D/3D Documentation utilizing the 3D Model
4. Plot digtal drawings
For each of the above competencies students with complete the following assessment tasks:
* Specific project tasks or exercises is to be completed and marked during class time.
*A portion of the project work requiring teamwork. Teams must assign roles, communicate and manage data effectively and efficiently.
*The completed modelling elements must be organized according to industry standards as applied to digital model making.
*Students submit a resource folio containing an annotated version of the tutorial notes. Checked against sample documents.
*Digital Models should be consistent with completed documented analysis. Assessed for accuracy, amount of detail and naming convention.
*Students produce a context massing model. A sample assessment task is to be completed and marked during class times
*Drawings should be efficiently produced, showing compliance to Architectural and Construction Drawing Standards. A sample assessment task
is to be completed and marked during class times.
*Plots should be efficiently produced, showing compliance to Architectural and Construction Drawing Standards. Assessed for accuracy, amount
of detail and naming convention.
