Details of Learning Activities

In this course you will learn about and practice using the materials, techniques and tools for the production of 3- dimensional drawings. These drawings will be used to communicate construction details and for promotional purposes.

Weekly learning activities are structured to provide you with the opportunity to develop drawing skills and knowledge to clearly communicate three dimensional form.
 

Activities include:
• discussion of underpinning knowledge;
• demonstration of skills and technique;
• practical application;

This course is delivered in a simulated studio /workshop environment. Assessment tasks will be set in studio sessions and the details of all submissions will be provided with the project briefs. During studio sessions, students will receive continuous feedback on how to improve and extend their art practice.

 OHS policies and procedures must be adhered to at all times. Students must wear fully covered shoes at all times. It is strongly recommended that students wear overalls or protective clothing.

Overview of Assessment

To achieve successful completion of this course students must demonstrate an understanding of all elements of competency.

Assessment tasks have been designed to measure achievement of each competency in a flexible manner.

Assessment will incorporate a variety of methods including:

Visual Diary /journal
Problem solving and drawing exercises
Folio of drawings
individual and group presentations


Students will be awarded a grade only  if competency has been demonstrated within the standard enrolment period on the first assessment attempt.

Units assessed as ‘not yet competent’ on a first assessment attempt and ‘competent’ on a second or subsequent attempt are to have results amended to competent but are not eligible for grading.

The students are advised that they are likely to be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment work to their teacher.


Assessment Tasks

Students will undertake a range of practical exercises which will enable them to develop their drawing techniques and ability to draw three dimensional forms.
Drawings tasks will be linked with design projects and you will be required to submit a final folio of selected drawings.
Details of project briefs will be presented in studio sessions
 

3 Assessment tasks
Assement task 1  - Figure drawing (folio and visual diary) 30%
Assessment task 2  - 3D interior/exterior - perspective - 30% (folio and visual diary)
Assessment task 3  - Final presentation (incorporating combined figures, product & perspective; and 5 - 10 minute presentation to class)

 

Visual diary
You will be required to maintain a visual diary for all projects through this course. The visual diary will be included in the assessment of projects. It should contain a variety of drawing references and annotations about process and ideas including:
