BusinessCourse summary
The MA in Creative Practice offers students the opportunities to work towards both professional and academic outputs, allowing them to graduate and progress onto higher level learning and careers in relevant industry sectors. Common across both pathways are overarching learning principles which define the ways in which graduates operate in their future careers. Practice as research forms a core thread in creative modules that explore individual areas of development. Students will be permitted the freedoms to develop through personal and critical reflection, evaluating their own training needs in respect to industry requirements. This facilitates a personalised learning ethos, with students specialising through direct supervisions and teaching support. Projects are designed and negotiated to explore the working practices and theoretical perspectives of their chosen specialism, with students encouraged to engage with their field from the outset of study. This allows postgraduates to emerge from their study with extensive portfolios of relevant practice, working towards developing or honing an expertise in a chosen creative field.
Modules
· Critical Research (20 Credits) · Exploration and Development (40 Credits) · Dissemination Frameworks (40 Credits) · Consolidating Practice (20 Credits) · Major Practice (60 Credits)
Assessment method
Assessments are developed in individual workshop spaces and studios, with summative assessments taking the form of exhibitions, public presentations and developmental portfolio submissions. This fosters the independent working nature and discipline of creative practice, whilst having an outward, community-facing approach, and an understanding of wider professional and academic fields. Developmental portfolios of work are submitted throughout the programme, with accompanying critical reflections and annotations that further describe the creative intentions and contexts of specialist works. Academic work is submitted through essays, literature reviews, critical case study reviews and other formats such as blogs, seminars and reports to ensure that students are knowledgeable on a broad range of presentation styles. Academic work is submitted electronically via VLE/TurnItIn. Other methods of submission include verbal presentations, critical evaluations, and exhibition events. All work is documented, and where appropriate submitted with a form of evaluative commentary. Evaluations of work are also submitted to enable assessment of techniques, application of these techniques, problem solving, effective communication and interpersonal skills.
