Learning Outcomes
1. Research and initiate a creative drawing project proposal
2. Research and develop innovative themes and ideas
3. Safely execute a cohesive body of creative drawings which express a personal vision and style
4. Critically appraise developed project drawings
Details of Learning Activities
Through the course of the Semester the Project document will be formed to infer areas of proposed conceptual investigation, practice based enquires and will scope and link all studio based Courses and activities undertaken by the student. Research, reflections, and appropriate notes resulting from access to Theory Courses will also be developed within the Project document.
Interdisciplinary drawing will reflect the investigation developed within each student’s individual Project document. Idea development related to drawing, as an interdisciplinary practice will be developed through individual tutorials.
All students will be required to develop a resource of drawings that inform the work in their major area of practice. This will occur under the guidance of academic staff with expertise in the field of drawing to develop an understanding in the student of the role of drawing conceptually and technically.
Teaching Schedule
Week 1 to 16: Studio based individual and group tutorial advice.

Assessment Tasks
Students will present a substantial and resolved body of work (folio), informed by the research undertaken within the Project document, demonstrating an informed and thoughtful approach to drawing. Assessment will be conducted by a panel of Academic staff, in turn providing a written response to the student relating to the overall folio presentation. The written response from the Assessment panel will reflect on the intrinsic nature of the folio in relation to all areas of studio practice, installation and exhibition practice, in turn reflecting the conceptual investigation and research undertaken within the Project document.
