This course may NOT be included as part of a graduating curriculum with FR 3083 (Literature and Photography : Image-making Interactions A). It will be available in 2013/14 and in alternate sessions thereafter.
Information on contact teaching time is available from the course guide.
The first written assignment has a formative as well as a summative role.
The above assignments receive CAS marks, which the Course Guide links to specific marking criteria, and written or verbal feedback in the form of tutors' comments is also given. Additional informal feedback on performance and tutorial participation is offered in tutorials. Tutors have office hours at which further feedback may be sought.
