Overview

Module aims and purpose

Design careers are varied and exciting. This module fulfils several roles in helping you imagine and achieve your career goals. Specifically, it aims to:聽

  • Nurture your personal creative process, which is a designer鈥檚 most marketable skill聽
  • Develop good habits of self-directed technical learning聽
  • Expose you to a range of design-related roles though a vibrant, diverse, student-curated series of guest lectures from people in early, mid and late career roles in design or related industries聽
  • Begin to build your personal network of industry contacts聽

Module learning outcomes

By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to:

  1. Challenge the obvious:聽Create, explore and analyse alternative solutions to solve design problems through a wide range of graphic styles, platforms and formats.
  2. Evidence design decisions:聽Explain and justify design concepts and proposals through a range of written, oral and graphic media.
  3. Employ technologies appropriately:聽Select and harness traditional, current and emerging technologies and crafts.
  4. Seek and assimilate new knowledge:聽Assess and incorporate contemporary discourse into design thinking.

Module content

The module contains distinct strands to support different areas of personal growth.聽

  • Workshops build skills and approaches to ideation, design process, and effective recording and reflection on practical projects聽
  • A guest lecture series provides the basis for reflective writing about industry and personal aspirations聽
  • Opportunities to engage with the University Careers team聽
  • A guided approach to online software learning helps you identify, undertake, and then reflect on tutorials that you choose for yourself. This provides the opportunity to be rewarded for effectively shaping and exploring your own set of design priorities.聽

Structure

Teaching and learning methods

The module will be delivered through a series of workshops, guest lectures, online content and in-person check-in sessions. Classes may involve group work, some of which may be assessed.聽

Penalties for late submission of summative assessment

The Support Centres will apply the following penalties for work submitted late:

Assessments with numerical marks

  • where the piece of work is submitted after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): 10% of the total marks available for that piece of work will be deducted from the mark for each working day (or part thereof) following the deadline up to a total of three working days;
  • the mark awarded due to the imposition of the penalty shall not fall below the threshold pass mark, namely 40% in the case of modules at Levels 4-6 (i.e. undergraduate modules for Parts 1-3) and 50% in the case of Level 7 modules offered as part of an Integrated Masters or taught postgraduate degree programme;
  • where the piece of work is awarded a mark below the threshold pass mark prior to any penalty being imposed, and is submitted up to three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline), no penalty shall be imposed;
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.

Assessments marked Pass/Fail

  • where the piece of work is submitted within three working days of the deadline (or any formally agreed extension of the deadline): no penalty will be applied;
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension of the deadline): a grade of Fail will be awarded.

The University policy statement on penalties for late submission can be found at: /cqsd/-/media/project/functions/cqsd/documents/qap/penaltiesforlatesubmission.pdf

You are strongly advised to ensure that coursework is submitted by the relevant deadline. You should note that it is advisable to submit work in an unfinished state rather than to fail to submit any work.

Formative assessment

Formative assessment is any task or activity which creates feedback (or feedforward) for you about your learning, but which does not contribute towards your overall module mark.

Formative assessment will usually fall into two categories:聽

  • Tasks and feedback that link directly to final assessment, allowing you to build relevant skills and measure your progress towards assessed work.聽
  • Tasks and feedback that feed into wider learning around the topic being covered. The skills and insights you acquire should help you achieve well in assessed tasks, but application of this leaning may be interpreted, rather than simply repeated.聽

Formative feedback will often include:聽

  • Verbal feedback in class.聽
  • Written comments on a piece of work.聽
  • Self, peer of staff assessment against a mark scheme.聽

Formative feedback will be given:聽

  • During an intensive careers workshop聽
  • At dedicated check-in points聽
