Learning Outcomes:
On completion of the module, students will have encountered and practically explored a range of approaches to research, and reflected critically on how those approaches might best support and nourish their own developing artistic practice.
Students will be able to:
• Develop research questions, aims and methods as appropriate to their artistic practices.
• Understand how to design, develop and sustain a creative enquiry supported by rigorous research practices.
• Identify, test and reflect on the effectiveness of various approaches to research in support of artistic creation.
• Articulate their artistic ideas and aims coherently and persuasively in the form of an artist statement, and/or proposal for a creative project.
