MFC6103 - Exhibition

Objectives:

Assessment tasks are designed to enable students to demonstrate the Learning and Employability outcomes for the relevant level of study. Level Learning Outcomes are embedded in the assessment task(s) at that level. This enables a more integrated view of overall student performance at each level.

Content:

In this module you will work on the final stages of your research portfolio projects - this will include technical, conceptual and practical competence and coherence.

You will work towards the curation and installation of a final exhibition of your portfolio. To do this you will work in teams and organise the various elements required to curate, install and promote an exhibition of degree standard, with support from tutors.

This will require planning and collaborating with others and will draw on your communication and curation skills from previous modules. In order to curate and organise this group exhibition of your work, you will be required to research through primary visits to galleries, contacting professionals such as artists, and participate in peer group discussions and tutorials.

This module will require ongoing documenting of the research and planning being done in order to deliver the final exhibition.
