Module & Studio Briefing - OUGD401

We've recently been briefed on what we will be doing in our context of practice for this year. It will consist of the following mandatory aspects:

  • A 3000 word essay on each session with a practical body of work.
  • A blog post providing evidence for each session.
The module will consist of five different subjects that we will explore in the following weeks. These subjects are:

  • Modernism
  • Post-Modernism
  • Gender Representation
  • Social/Political
  • Consumerism

Personally, already having an interest in Modernism, I think that it would be a wise choice to go by my instinct and do something I'm familiar with. But I have yet to have all the necessary sessions to decide what I truly want to work with. So for the time being, I'm going to see if any of the other subjects in question will appeal to me, rather than ruling everything out.

With tutor guidance I will be able to build a working knowledge of the subject in hand. Additionally, I will also have to build a bibliography of a least 10 or more sources (There are at least 7 books that are recommended in the brief.) in order to pass the module, these must be structured using the Harvard system.
