![Page 2: Asu4 briefing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060119/558e91021a28abb7758b4577/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
This Award Specific Unit provides the opportunity to extend your subject knowledge through specialist practice and experimentation. You will be expected to examine the boundaries of your own design practice and consider how they may be pushed or challenged through experimentation and innovation. The workshops in this unit will invite you to extend your practice through the presentation of weekly textile design considerations. Examples of workshops and lectures you will engage with are: Materials Experimentation, Pattern and Repeat, Digital Craft, Market and Audience. Each workshop will require preparation and research during the preceding week. Alongside the taught sessions you will develop a body of work through an independent project. You will need to consider the theme of you project carefully at the outset of the unit and use the workshop sessions to consider how your own work relates to the theme of the session.

Assessment Requirements:• At the end of this unit you will need to submit
• a) A completed Learning Agreement (that proposes the content, intent and context for your work).
• b) A body of studio work (including all supporting evidence of study, which includes final outcomes, prototypes, developmental work and a professional portfolio that critically informs and challenges design).
• c) A reflective journal (which clearly documents your
project and effectively applies your research findings relevant to your practice in this unit).
