Learning outcomes

Unit Learning Outcomes express learning achievement in terms of what a student should know, understand and be able to do on completion of a unit. These outcomes are aligned with the graduate attributes. The unit learning outcomes and graduate attributes are also the basis of evaluating prior learning.

On completion of this unit, students should be able to:

apply knowledge of media histories and traditions in conceptualising a body of work

integrate diverse techniques and technologies in the production of digital imagery

produce a body of work at professional standard for commercial and/or creative contexts

show evidence of critical thinking and reflexive practice in the production of final artworks.

Prescribed learning resources

Prescribed Texts
  • No prescribed texts.
Prescribed Resources/Equipment

  • This unit requires students to have access to appropriate hardware and software for digital imaging. There is a large range of hardware and software available on campus in labs and the equipment store, but students may also need to supply their own equipment. Access to standard equipment such as a DSLR and the Adobe Suite is preferable but not mandatory, as students may choose to focus on other modes of production - e.g. 3D printing - depending on interest.

Prescribed Learning Resources may change in future Teaching Periods.
