Learning outcomes

Level Deepening (semester 3-7): The student shows insight into the importance of design and theoretical research and experiment for the acquisition of knowledge and skills and succeeds in giving shape to this.

1. ARTISTIC CREATION
The student can initiate a visual work process and create work in which practice-oriented research has a place. With the work and with a working method, the student creates meaning.

Dealing with the not-knowing, the unexpected, is inherently linked to the practice of the artist or designer. The student is able to allow and use doubt and uncertainty in erratic work processes. By dealing with risks in the work, the student develops self-confidence to work as an artist/designer in a dynamic world.

The student becomes proficient in relevant and diverse (digital) media, techniques, materials, crafts and technologies, for the benefit of the work and the development of their own positioning. The student demonstrates ethical awareness with regard to the use of materials and technology. In the choices in the work process, the student shows awareness of the impact that the creation and production of work can have on the environment.

2. RESEARCH AND REFLECTION
The student is able to critically and from multiple perspectives consider their own work and working method and that of others. This allows the student to deepen their own design or artistry, make it more layered and position.

The student has a grip on the way in which choices are made in the work process and the personal values, questions and ambitions that guide these choices. The student can discuss the intuitively created or conscious choices and relate them to the work, the audience, the environment or the larger context.
The student can document the work process. In this way, the student develops ownership of work and working methods.

 

Content

Je werkt aan het design dilemma dat je docenten hebben geformuleerd op basis van de competenties van dit semester, en de inhoud die hieronder staat.

Lab: Makend en experimenterend werk je aan ontwerpen, en ontwikkel je als ontwerper je eigen handschrift; de workshops spelen hierin een belangrijke rol.

Thema sem 5: In dit semester over Fascination and Connection verbind je persoonlijke fascinaties met het onderwerp van het semester en blijf je je wereld op een kritische manier benaderen.
Er zijn verschillende ontwerpmethoden om een ontwerpproces te starten. In deze periode werk je vanuit een wetenschappelijk fenomeen als inspiratie en kennisbasis. Door te leren tot een startpunt te komen om je eigen vertaling te maken, doe je nieuwe kennis en perspectieven op door te experimenteren en te verkennen. 
Ook probeer je toe te werken naar een eigen positie binnen het vakgebied Product Design, waarbij je persoonlijke fascinaties en inspiraties interpreteert en vertaalt. Je verbreedt je blik en neemt kritische perspectieven aan naar de buitenwereld, met user experience op een conceptuele manier.
