COURSE CONTENT
Student Learning Outcomes:
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
Untitled document
1. Define perception and awareness of visual elements such as form, texture, space and motion.
2. Utilize the vocabulary of three dimensional design.
3. Create three dimensional forms by employing a variety of design tools and materials.
Objectives:
Untitled document
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
1. Develop perception and awareness of visual elements and relationships such as form, rhythm,
scale and repetition.
2. Employ the vocabulary of three dimensional design to describe forms.
3. Demonstrate hand skills for basic various design tools and media; hard, soft, flat and linear.
4. Employ analytical operations of two dimensional and three dimensional sketches to build
forms in three dimensional space.
5. Develop aesthetic judgments through class critiques.
6. Demonstrate a disciplined creative ability through the development of disciplined work habits,
time management skills, and the practice of hand skills, as well as risk-taking and
experimentation.
7. Examine and analyze examples of historical models in architecture, sculpture and design.
8. Define health and safety issues that could arise from the use of three dimensional design
materials such as mat knives, rulers, compasses and other three dimensional design
materials to demonstrate safe use.

Assignments:
Untitled document
1. Various form building exercises (portfolio preparation) (8 to 10) which explore major
principles of form function including:
a. Paper as a structural material
b. Cardboard used as a model making material for natural and architectural form
c. Human scale as a factor in functional form
d. Primitive form and its relationship to geometric and organic design
e. Fabrication and joinery as important details of form
f. Kinetics and optics
g. Design a Rube Goldberg type of device
f. Design and create new tools for the certain task
h. Design and build a case for precious object
2. Critiquing the aesthetic and conceptual success of one's own and other students' work
3. Student presents own work as portfolio at end of course
All assignments are lab- and lecture-related.
Methods of Evaluation/Basis of Grade.
Writing: Assessment tools that demonstrate writing skill and/or require students to select, organize and explain ideas in writing. | Writing 0 - 0% |
None | |
This is a degree applicable course but assessment tools based on writing are not included because skill demonstrations are more appropriate for this course. |
|
Problem solving: Assessment tools, other than exams, that demonstrate competence in computational or non-computational problem solving skills. | Problem Solving 0 - 0% |
None | |
Skill Demonstrations: All skill-based and physical demonstrations used for assessment purposes including skill performance exams. | Skill Demonstrations 70 - 90% |
Class presentations, critiques, and portfolio preparation | |
Exams: All forms of formal testing, other than skill performance exams. | Exams 0 - 0% |
None | |
Other: Includes any assessment tools that do not logically fit into the above categories. | Other Category 10 - 30% |
