Studio Studies 2

Building on Studio Studies 2, students are expected to be more responsible for the direction of their work. Individual development is encouraged and the lecturer's role becomes increasingly one of facilitating independent art practice. At this level sustained exploration and experimentation with materials, procedures and methodologies of practice is expected. Students are also expected to be increasingly familiar and conversant with the historical and contemporary influences that inform their work. The introduction of the professional practice component begins to prepare students for the realities of independent professional artistic activity.

Assessment is based on a substantial folio of work demonstrating the range of a student's activities during the semester, including any group of finished works, support work, drawings, journals/sketchbooks etc and other works/material in any media the student chooses to submit. For more detailed assessment information refer to your program's subject handouts. Ongoing feedback is provided to students via individual and group tutorials. The mid-semester review takes into account the student's progress against the following criteria:

Course engagement

Work development

Studio use

Formal feedback is given to students who are deemed to be at risk. Academic staff write progress reports during the semester that students sight and sign. A single mark is assigned at the end of the semester.
