Assessment
Additional details
Assessment is based on a substantial folio of work demonstrating the range of a student’s activities during the semester, including any group of finished works, support work, drawings, journals/sketchbooks etc. and other works/material in any media the student chooses to submit (100%). For more detailed assessment information refer to your program’s subject handouts.
Ongoing feedback is provided to students via individual and group tutorials. The mid-semester review takes into account the student’s progress against the following criteria:
• Course engagement
• Work development
• Studio use
Formal feedback is given to students who are deemed to be at risk. Academic staff write progress reports during the semester that students sight and sign. A single mark is assigned at the end of the semester.
