This project sees the culmination of your final year of study and allows you to bring your Final Project to resolution. You will take forward the ideas developed in BA7, and use your skills and knowledge to produce resolved work that shows attention to detail and a comprehensive understanding of your subject. You may want to continue with particular concepts that you were investigating in BA7 or you may wish to use the skills you have developed in order to produce a series of mini projects that are appropriate to your interests.

what do you need to do?

A body of studio work and supporting evidence of research. This will be negotiated with tutors in response to your declaration in your learning agreement.

A written critical evaluation (500-1000 words).

A research report (5000 words).

LO7: Demonstrate consistent understanding and detailed knowledge of the key characteristics and boundaries of subject practice

We will be looking for methodical and reliable references to and analysis of the key concepts, issues and methods of subject discipline throughout your studio work, research report and written evaluation

LO8: Show evidence of sustained critical engagement with an issue or question relevant to your subject, referencing the bodies of knowledge that support and challenge your discipline, and communicating your findings through appropriate written and visual communication presented in the form of a research report.

We will be looking for a focused approach to researching, analysing and communicating including posing relevant research questions, showing depth and breadth in your range of research sources, utilising appropriate research methods and producing both a final body of studio work and a related Research Report.

LO9: Demonstrate awareness of debates within and around subject practice, acknowledging pluralistic and open-ended approaches to the development of specialist skills and knowledge.

We will be looking for indications that you have related your project to contemporary debates in the subject and that you have looked broadly at your subject in relation to the wider social, cultural and economic climate. We will be looking for approaches that suggest originality and innovation.

LO10: Demonstrate the capacity to manage your learning, using a range of approaches and resources identified through independent research into your subject.

We will be looking for an organised approach to planning and managing your time and the resources required to successfully complete the project. We will be looking for signs that you have been learning independently by taking ideas, techniques and research beyond those suggested by the tutor

LO11: Apply subject skills and knowledge to develop and extend projects beyond initial findings and solutions towards resolved outcomes.

We will be looking for documentation of your decision making; developmental, selection and editing processes; and evaluation of the successes and failures that lead to your final resolved studio work.

LO12: Communicate effectively to a range of specialist and non-specialist audiences using means appropriate to your practice.

We will be looking for easily accessible, well organised and clearly labelled material in all of your submission. We will be looking at how easily we are able to follow your ideas and the relationships and approaches you have taken. We will be looking at the communication methods you have used and your decisions regarding their appropriateness to your audience
