What this paper is about
This paper presents the students with the challenge of designing different types of complex industrially manufactured projects. The students are challenged to experiment beyond their previously acquired knowledge, designing and prototyping for manufacturing in large scale.
How this paper will be taught
This paper is taught through a series of lectures and studios and it relies on Moodle for the communication with the students.
Class attendance and active participation are expected. The course notes provided are not comprehensive, additional material will be covered in class. Students are responsible for all content covered in class.
Students are expected to devote much time to practical work. Just turning in the first attempt at each practical is not acceptable. Students should experiment with the concepts discussed in class to gain a full understanding of the delivered material.
Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete the course should be able to:
Assessments
How you will be assessed
Design critique
Students will write an opinion piece to demonstrate how they apply their research and already acquired knowledge, to convey a clear and structured argument that conveys their understanding of industrial design.
Presentation
Students will demonstrate how graphic design, page layout and typography are utilised to properly present their work.
Problem solving
Students will be tasked with solving a real world problem through the application of the design process that they have learned from previous studies. Tasks will involve researching, prototyping, iterative development, form evaluation and ergonomics.
Large scale manufacture
Students will be tasked with developing a product suitable for large scale manufacturing. In addition new methods of presentation and visualisation will be explored.The internal assessment/exam ratio (as stated in the University Calendar) is 100:0. There is no final exam.
