Subject Code: 1DSNB Length of course: Semester Credit points: 10 points Recommended Background: Satisfactory completion of Year 10 Design A or Year 10 Design B
Course Outline: Students research, analyse, explore and experiment with media and technique, and resolve and produce practical work.
They use visual thinking and investigation to develop ideas and concepts, refine technical skills, and produce imaginative solutions.
Students learn to communicate personal ideas, beliefs, values, thoughts, feelings, concepts and opinions, and provide observations of their lived or imagined experiences in visual form.
Topics Included:
Students produce one folio that documents their visual learning, in support of their works of design. Students will focus their folio on Environmental Design (eg. Energy efficient holiday house design). The folio should include evidence of visual learning, such as:
starting points of visual thinking
the application of creative thinking and/or problem solving skills
sources of inspiration and influence
the analysis of works of design
the development of alternative ideas or concepts
the evaluation and review of ideas and progress
annotated comments to clarify thinking
explorations with genre, materials, and technology
the practice and application of skills
refinement of ideas leading up to decisions about the final resolved product
All practicals are resolved from visual thinking and learning documented in the folio. The practical consists of two parts:
design practical work scale model - final presentation
the practitioner’s statement / evaluation
The visual study is an exploration, and/or experimentation with, a style, an idea, a concept, media, materials, methods, techniques, and/or technologies. Students base their exploration and/or experimentation on analysis of the work of other practitioners, individual research, and the development of visual thinking and/or technical skills. They present the findings of their visual study as well as their conclusions and insights.
