Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Implemented in all project development across each module.

Methods of Assessment

Review of codebase by module coordinators to determine adherence to good practice.

Create (tangible/digital) interactive pieces, such as generative visual/audio art, visual-audio interactive elements, AR/VR applications, but also encourage to open for any innovative experiments with different (digital) mediums.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Delivered using online lectures and laboratory sessions across each module.

Methods of Assessment

Assessed from demonstration (3 technical assignments) and projects (3 design projects) and module coordinator/peer review.

Equipped and capable of freely employing any level appropriate knowledge of 3D objects/environment, visualization, simple AR/VR settings, and synthesized audio with relevant software as elements for exploring creation.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Delivered using online lectures and laboratory sessions across each module.

Methods of Assessment

Assessed from demonstration (3 technical assignments) and projects (3 design projects) and module coordinator/peer review.

Equipped with level appropriate knowledge of 3D objects/environment, visualization, and synthesized audio with relevant software as elements for creation.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Implemented in laboratory sessions and project development across each module.

Methods of Assessment

Code review by peers and module coordinators/external panel.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Delivered using online lectures and laboratory sessions across each module.

Methods of Assessment

Assessed from (3 technical assignments) and projects (3 design projects) with follow-up reviews by peers and module coordinators.

Assess projects from peers/own work and make critical judgements on code quality.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

This will be introduced in lectures and built upon in class discussions. Assessment feedback and formative assessments will provide opportunities to enhance these skills.

Methods of Assessment

Self-reflection will be reviewed in learning journals/code bases, engagement with the peer review process will be part of summative assessments. Peer review will only occur once per module.

Analyse, evaluate, interpret, and synthesise information

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

This will be integral to all modules and will comprise the basis of completion for all assessments throughout the programme.

Methods of Assessment

This will be assessed in all summative elements in the program.

Demonstrate an ability to undertake independent enquiry.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Students will be required to demonstrate independent learning across all modules through completion of assigned readings/ presentations/ discussions and completion of a learning journal.

Methods of Assessment

Learning journal, presentations, project evaluation.

Iterate on work and skills based on reflection and feedback.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Students will have multiple opportunities to improve their development process for presentations/ projects/assignments throughout the programme through use of formative assessments/ peer review and feedback on early versions of projects.

Presentations, assignments and Learning Journals.

Independently manage their learning and development.

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Time management and organisation will be explicitly required across all modules, the asynchronous nature of lecture delivery means that students will have to determine how to consume content before each laboratory/synchronous teaching time.

Methods of Assessment

This will be assessed in all summative assessments on the programme.
