Structure Requirements
All units are mandatory. Stage 1 (Unit 1) Personal Audit in Art, Design and Media - Level 3 Stage 2 (Unit 2) Exploratory Pathways in Art, Design and Media - Level 3 Stage 3 (Unit 3) Final Major Project in Art, Design and Media - Level 4 Stage 1 - offers a diagnosis of a learner’s knowledge, understanding and skills. Stage 2 - offers a possible prognosis for future development, building upon personal creative strengths. It builds on Stage 1 allowing for greater depth of study achieved by one or more of the following: • Greater specialisation in a particular medium or process; • Extended development of particular themes, projects, ideas or issues; • Further theoretical research; • More rigorous exploration of an inter-disciplinary or multi-disciplinary approach; • Increasing individual learner responsibility for the research, making and presentation of work, which is developed through to the final project exposition. Stage 3 - builds on the learning experiences of the previous two Stages. Learners will set up a personal response to a negotiated brief that enables them to work within their discipline preference or specialism. They will produce a final exposition of work and introduce this through a reflective Personal Review.
