MDIA 3316 - Photographic Imaging IV

Adelaide College of ArtsandDes - Semester 1 - 2024

This course builds on the photographic and visual communication skills acquired in Photographic Imaging III. It allows the student to specialise in a field or fields of their own choice by creating a study contract (in conjunction with staff) outlining their preferred area of learning. At the end of the course, the student will have produced an industry standard body of work suitable for marketing and promoting their skills and in an area that is of most interest and relevance to them. The course promotes a self-directed approach guided by interaction from staff and the appointment of an industry practitioner (photographer) acting as a mentor. This collaboration promotes the dissemination of current skills and the refinement of techniques in an environment that promotes experimentation, innovation and excellence.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.
