4 PART 2: COURSE DETAILS AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES Aims The aims of the course are: The course aims to create a learning environment within which students with a wide range of professional learning, skills and experiences develop a critical awareness of their own design processes and strategies. Working alongside, and at times in close collaboration with, students from other design disciplines it is intended that these critical evaluations be formulated with a view to the strengths and weaknesses of conventional professional boundaries. In addition to the intention to challenge subject/disciplinary boundaries the course actively pursues opportunities for international workshops and exchanges. The projects developed within this collaborative framework set out to question simplistic distinctions between interior and exterior space, whilst actively creating design proposals from the common ground between selected design specialisms and diverse cultural perspectives. The programme aims to conform to the generic aims for study of the University of Brighton Academic Framework: To promote a studio culture whose goal is the design of spaces and programmes that result from rigorous interdisciplinary collaboration between fine artists, designers, architects and critical thinkers, To encourage students independent scholarship and research in order to situate their own design programmes and propositions within a wider, historical and cultural context, To offer a broad menu of advanced study options in architecture, interior design, urban design and related fields which can be combined to allow students to discover, research and further define their own area of specialisation, To promote critical engagement and reflection amongst the students with respect to their evolving design methods and practices, To support the development of a research-based culture which acknowledges the importance of knowledge and experience to the design process, To provide an environment which supports intellectual development, creativity, professionalism, free exchange of ideas, collaborative work, the sharing of experiences and insights, and which encourages experiment, risk-taking and the pursuit of excellence, To develop students ability to identify, develop and communicate their own theoretical position, their critical awareness and their personal commitment in relation to the practice of design. Learning outcomes The outcomes of the main award provide information about how the primary aims are demonstrated by students following the course. These are mapped to external reference points where appropriate 5. Knowledge and Skills. Learning Outcomes Students are expected to achieve: 1. Insight in perceiving the issues of their discipline and awareness of the strengths and weaknesses in its various intellectual approaches, constructs and debates; 2. An ability to construct, develop and successfully complete projects containing substantial research; 3. Independence of thought and intellectual rigour in the analysis of problems/hypotheses and the creation of responses; 4. A high level of craftsmanship and technical command in the construction of texts/ artefacts/performances; 5. An ability to draw up clear research aims, construct, develop and successfully complete a programme of specialised enquiry and selfmanaged study; 6. A high level of professional and technical skill in the construction and communication of the Master Work in appropriate media; 5 Please refer to Course Development and Review Handbook or QAA website for details.

5 QAA subject benchmark statement (where applicable) 6 No specific benchmark statement PROFESSIONAL, STATUTORY AND REGULATORY BODIES (where applicable) Where a course is accredited by a PSRB, full details of how the course meets external requirements, and what students are required to undertake, are included. N/A LEARNING AND TEACHING Learning and teaching methods This section sets out the primary learning and teaching methods, including total learning hours and any specific requirements in terms of practical/ clinical-based learning. The indicative list of learning and teaching methods includes information on the proportion of the course delivered by each method and details where a particular method relates to a particular element of the course. MA students are expected to progressively act as independent researchers and learners. There are types of learning applicable to this course and these are used within each of the subject areas and lead to a position of self-directed learning in the Masterwork. In this course, research in spatial design is concerned with: Enriching knowledge through scholarly enquiry Developing a reasoned position to design issues with reference to the thinking, work, ideas of others, based on an understanding of the context and relationships between disciplines Establishing the impact of intellectual approaches to design questions, i.e. drawing conclusions Developing propositions in the form of designed responses that engage with the progression of the subject area Situated Learning. This will consist of things students have learned through their experience, either directly related to course work, or in an unrelated area that is then applied to design practice. Learning in the design studio relies heavily on situated learning in the form of problem-based and project-based learning. However, all forms of situated learning are supported by directed teaching and learning activities. Situated learning is characterised by the following teaching and learning activities: Site visits and field trips. Group and teamwork. Individual tutorials. Group tutorials. Pin-ups and discussion of work in progress. Crits, reviews and juries. Situated learning is supported by the following teaching and learning activities: Workshops and classes. Seminars. Lectures. Portfolio reviews. Directed Learning. This can be thought of as the most traditional form of teaching and learning. An expert (the teacher) 6 Please refer to the QAA website for details. Page 5 of 12
6 shares his or her insight and experience with those with less experience and knowledge. It may happen in a large lecture theatre, or in an individual tutorial where the student is seeking particular information or guidance. Directed learning is characterised by the following teaching and learning activities: Seminars. Lectures. Directed learning is supported by the following teaching and learning activities: Individual tutorials. Group tutorials. Self-Directed Learning. Learning to work independently and outside the context of formal taught situations is arguably the most important skill that students will learn. Being able to work and learn independently will allow students to continue learning and developing, professionally and academically, after they have completed their formal education. Within the course, self-directed learning may be as straightforward as reading a particular reference and applying it to an assignment, or it may involve teamwork and multi-tasking on complex assignments where students set their own targets and deadlines. Self-directed learning is characterised by the following learning activities: Individual student-centred work Group and team work Self-directed learning is supported by the following teaching and learning activities: Individual tutorials. Seminars and Group tutorials. Pin-ups and discussion of work in progress. Crits, reviews and juries. Portfolio reviews. Use of the University s Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), studentcentral, is well developed. Students use this facility to work collaboratively as well as to communicate with the course team. Text-based assignments are submitted electronically. Support for ICT skills will be offered to all students throughout the course. Students with English as an additional language will be introduced to the University s advisory writing service and support classes on academic writing run throughout the academic year. These services will be introduced in the Induction week to ensure that students can access support based on individual needs. In Induction Week students will be given workshop and general academic orientation to help them understand the aims, objectives, structure of the course and assessment. The relevant Course Leader will provide support and guidance for individual students throughout the year. ASSESSMENT Assessment methods This section sets out the summative assessment methods on the course and includes details on where to find further information on the criteria used in assessing coursework. It also provides an assessment matrix which reflects the variety of modes of assessment, and the volume of assessment in the course. Page 6 of 12
7 The minimum pass mark for postgraduate (level 7) modules and awards is 50%. All modules are assessed against the learning outcomes set out in each module descriptor. Additionally, the criteria for award of particular marks or grades are provided by the Grading Criteria / Grading Descriptors which are included in the student handbook. The ways in which modules are assessed will be outlined formally in each of the module descriptors. The summative assessment methods, which are used within the course, are listed in the table below. These are complemented by a range of formative assessment tasks including presentations - that provide students with opportunities to develop transferable skills beneficial to their future career and academic study aspirations. Where there are two assessment tasks, these are staggered within the module, meaning that assessments are not bunched towards the end of the semester. For further details please refer to the University of Brighton General Examination and Assessment Regulations for Taught Courses (GEAR).
