Present evidence of a body of work that demonstrates a systematic enhancement of your knowledge and understanding. (AC Realisation)

1. Present evidence of a body of work that demonstrates a systematic enhancement of your knowledge and understanding. (AC Realisation)

2. Synthesise and critically reflect coherently on your process whilst providing evidence of an active, independent and/or collaborative practice. (AC Process)

3. Summarise and evaluate your overall progress and formulate a constructive plan for continuing Personal and Professional Development. (AC Communication)

Notes on the 3 Learning outcomes:

Remember, looking back over your blog and curating your Unit 3 assessment is doing 2 things:

1. most importantly, telling yourself the story of your time on this Masters course, noting the things that are important to help you develop beyond this experience

1. strategically pointing the reviewers to the evidence that shows you have met the learning outcomes

Learning outcomes:

1. Present evidence of a body of work that demonstrates a systematic enhancement of your knowledge and understanding. (AC Realisation)

⠀notes:

— ‘body of work’ – obviously not just 1 or 2 pieces of work, look back over the 2 years and notice all the work you have done


— ‘systematic enhancement’ – although you will focus on evidence on your blog from Unit 3, you may need to refer to stuff from Unit 1 and Unit 2 to tell the story of your development

— ‘knowledge and understanding’ – how have you developed as an artist, your knowledge and understanding of yourself and ask the same question about your art – notice how your knowledge and understanding has developed

1. Synthesise and critically reflect coherently on your process whilst providing evidence of an active, independent and/or collaborative practice. (AC Process)

⠀notes:

— ‘Synthesise’ – try to connect all your different thoughts and experiments – ‘critically reflect’ show you have been asking yourself deep questions

— ‘on your process’ – process, process, process – even at Unit 3 we are still interested in your process, this is still the focus, telling yourself the story of your process, of you making your art

— ‘evidence of an active, independent and/or collaborative practice’ – for ‘active’ we would expect to see evidence of your plans for showing your work eg in the end of year show – also show us and yourself that you now have the tools and rhythms of working that you can use on into the future

1. Summarise and evaluate your overall progress and formulate a constructive plan for continuing Personal and Professional Development. (AC Communication)

⠀notes:

— ‘Summarise and evaluate your overall progress’ – the 5 minute video does most of this work for you

— ‘formulate a constructive plan…’ – tell us and yourself, how you move forward, what will you do next?
