This module gives students' the opportunity to begin to develop the skills, knowledge and understanding required to be a professional designer and practitioner through short focussed design and manufacturing tasks. Student will create professional CV style skills documents.
The module enables students' to begin to develop a creative mindset and to develop the skills required to communicate their ideas effectively in 2D through sketching and graphical communication techniques.
The module enables students' to begin to develop their 3D prototyping and manufacturing skills through the use of commercial prototyping studio and workshop machinery. Through workshop activities students will develop their knowledge of Health and Safety practices and material properties.
It also begins to develop students' knowledge and competencies in the use of Computer Aided Design, 3D printing and the use of digital graphic software (Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign).
Cynnwys cwrs
This is an 8-week module. Drawing and visual communication of ideas will be taught through focussed activities as well as short design challenges. Design challenges will require a combination of 2D and 3D prototyping to visualise and communicate ideas.
A weekly workshop session will provide Health and Safety and machine operation instruction through induction and manufacturing tasks.
Computer Aided Design and Digital Graphics will be taught through a weekly tutorial programme of specific skills with an extension and independent task to be completed.
Students will produce both a portfolio of evidence and an outward facing CV style document for assessment by college staff.

| GWAITH CWRS | PROTOTYPING & ANNOTATION- TRADITIONAL | PROTOTYPING A- Large quantity of prototypes produced. Prototyping is highly effective in supporting design development and integrated fully within an iterative design process. B- Good quantity of prototypes produced. Prototyping is somewhat effective in supporting design development and somewhat integrated within an iterative design process C- Moderate to low quantity of prototypes produced. Prototyping is mostly used to present ideas rather than to develop ideas. On some occasions, there is evidence that the prototyping supports design development (within an iterative design process). D- Low quantity of prototypes produced. Prototyping is mostly used to present ideas rather than to develop ideas. Evidence of an iterative design process being used is minimal. ANNOTATIONS A-Critical reflection: Reflection (in addition to the dialogic reflection) is conducted in a critical manner. It takes into account the context in which events occur, questions assumptions, considers alternatives, thinks about consequences of decisions/actions on others, and engages in reflective scepticism. B-Dialogic reflection: There is a ‘stepping back’ from events and actions, and reflection is a personal dialogue. Events and actions are questioned, and alternatives are considered. C-Descriptive reflection: Description includes reasons, but simply reported, with possible some evidence of deeper consideration. No real evidence of alternative viewpoints or (wider) context. D-Descriptive: Comments are mostly descriptive of events which occurred. Events and actions are described with no attempt to describe ‘why’. |
