Studio courses are built around individually negotiated semester-long projects, based on the practice-led pedagogy employed by the School of Art. This course may be taken in any of the School's Workshops: Ceramics, Furniture, Glass, Gold and Silversmithing, Painting, Photography and Media Arts, Printmedia and Drawing, Sculpture and Textiles. This 6u course allows students to carry out a small scale focussed, creative studio research project.

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Plan and manage a small scale studio based investigation.
- Develop an experimental and analytical methodology.
- Advance initial ideas using studio and allied research methods.
- Reflect critically on their own work.
- Articulate an investigation's key concerns and reference points.
- Create a body of experimental objects or works.
Other Information
The progressive outcomes of studio practice based courses are assessed by periodic critique plus review sessions and end-of-semester presentation to an assessment panel. Critique sessions will provide advice on work in progress in response to approved projects, reviews will provide indicative advice on a student's achievement, and the end of semester presentation will assess the final outcomes against the agreed requirements of course projects.
Indicative Assessment
Practice-led research proposal: 10%, [Learning Outcomes 1 and 2] - due week 2 [600-800wds]
Studio Practice Project: 70% (due week 15) [Learning Outcomes 1, 2, 3, 6] - due week 15
Studio Journal and critical reflection: 20% [Learning Outcomes 4 and 5] - due week 15, (reflection: 800 - 1000 words)
The Critical Reflection analyses and evaluates the project and relates it to its contextual framework.
