Course Objectives within the framework of MSJ Undergraduate LO/PI:  (At the conclusion of this course, the student will be able to):

 

 

á      Demonstrate the ability to think critically and creatively through accomplishing design research, and design project (Critical Thinking 1-4);

á      Demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively through writing the design plans, research project and unit discussions (Communication 1-4);

á      Demonstrate the ability to express or respond to aesthetic qualities through selection and execution of design project (Critical Thinking 1-4);

á      Demonstrate knowledge of the central beliefs, practices, and heritage of cultures other than their own, and investigate knowledge gained from two or more disciplines through writing in unit reports and through discussion (Citizenship 2-4, Sociocultural Relationships 3, Communication 1-4);

á      Demonstrate understanding of contemporary visual organization and applied design through focus on the historical process of graphic and industrial through student reports and discussions (Critical Thinking 1-4);

á      Demonstrate the understanding of the cross-relationship between the Fine Arts, typography, illustration, photography, industrial and interior design through research of periodicals, books, and web sites on design, and the final design project (Citizenship 2,4, Interdisciplinarity 1 – 3, Sociocultural Relationships 3, Communication 1 and 2).

 

E-Portfolio

 

During your senior LA&S capstone course(s) - thesis and senior seminar, you will be asked for an electronic file containing examples of your work throughout your college experience.  Although the precise form of the e-portfolio is not clear yet, I suggest you keep a file for each class and/or term with examples of writing and visual pieces.  The visual pieces may be jpeg images. This action now will save you last minute research in your senior year.

 

 

Teaching Methodology (Learning Strategies):

 

Lecture with CD-ROM images, WebCT support materials/feedback, student research, group discussion, field trips, Student Design Concept Project, Student Design Presentation.

 

Method of Evaluating Achievement of Outcomes:

 

The grade for the course is based on three Student Topic Reports, the Student Design Concept project, the Student Design Presentation, and two sets of field trip sketches-- each representing about 1/7 of the final grade. Also factored in is active participation (discussions, questions, and sketches with notes from field trips).

 

 

Special

 

If you have specific physical, psychological, or learning disabilities and require accommodations, please let me know early in the semester so that your learning needs may be appropriately met.

 

Academic Integrity:

 

When we use the information and language of others to enrich our reflection and research papers we must:

á      tell the reader when we are quoting and indicate the source (person, book, article, etc.) of the quotation.

á      tell the reader when we are paraphrasing and indicate the source (person, book, article, etc.) of that information.

 

Quoting or paraphrasing the information and/or language of a source without naming the source is plagiarism.  Plagiarism is unacceptable in an academic institution and is subject to penalty.  Please consult the College Catalog and the Student Handbook for additional information and policies regarding academic honesty.

REQUIREMENTS: Students need to successfully complete the following:

 

I.                "C" or better average for totaled grades if an art major

 

 

 

 

 

 

II.         Student Design Unit Topic Reports

 

 

 

                       Description

 

Students are randomly assigned three topics over 5 design units: Pre-Industrial, Industrial, Arts/Crafts through Bauhaus, Streamlining through Computer, and Recent.  Students will come to class prepared to present and discuss their topic on the assigned day. Visit WebCT for support materials to read. Students should use PowerPoint, or hard copy to present your topic in the context of the larger contextual period.

 

Presenting students are expected to demonstrate understanding of their assigned report topic and the larger period being examined. They demonstrate understanding through their visual overview, topic research, documentation, preparation for the Q/A, and discussion of the period being examined.  They respond to all questions from the class.

 

Beyond the presenter, all students, through study in advance of the Student Topic Report presentations, are expected to have a familiarity with the larger period being examined, generate questions and participate in discussions.

 

At the end of class, students turn in a stapled four-page topic report as follows:

 

Page one: Coversheet with topic, your name and date centered.

Page two:  One well edited single spaced discussion of the topic—no more, no less.

Page three: One well-chosen illustration

                               Page four: bibliography in MLA style of (5) sources—no Wikipedia, no encyclopedia, and no more than one web site. See  

                          Duke University Library help site: http://www.lib.duke.edu/libguide/cite/works_cited.htm

 

Research for the presentation and paper should be beyond the Internet.  Students should examine design periodicals such as Print, Communication Arts, Graphis, Journal of Design History, Architectural Digest, Architectural Record, Interior Design, Design, Design Quarterly, The Journal of Decorative and Propaganda Arts, Design Issues, I. D. Magazine of International Design, and HOW.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

III.              Student Design Project/Presentation: End of term object design

 

 

 

                          Description

 

                          Select a well-known designer or historical period or design movement.  Next, select a contemporary manufactured object, a business, an institution, a service, or a timely concept that needs visual communication, styling, or redesign.  In the "style" of another time or by revising or using the approach of another well known designer, define your project problem and solve it with a web site, a poster, an architectural rendering, a model, a corporate ID program, a small appliance design, a cabinet redesign, etc.  (Many options exist -- see me for alternatives!)

 

                          Examples

-              A kiosk design in the style of Darius Wells, promoting CincinnatiÕs National Underground Railroad Freedom Center

                          -         A web site promoting design for senior daycare in de-constructive style of Paula Scher

                          -         Bauhaus "style" bus billboard to promote the upcoming 2012 Olympics in London

                          -         Tableware in a "style" of the 1951 Festival of Britain

                          -         A "streamlined" version of an mp3 player, cellular telephone, or handbag

                          -         A contemporary ibook cover in the "style" of William Morris

                          -         A web site in Michael GraveÕs style to promote ÒTaste of CincinnatiÓ

                          -         Magazine illustration of Riverfest U.S.A. after Stefan Sagmeister "style"

                          -         "Hip Hop" "style" image of peace for the Catholic Relief for aid to children

                          -         A "Scandinavian" style chair

                          -         An industrial style re-design of the iPhone

 

 

                          Details

 

                          1.       You may use standard graphics (drafting) material and/or full-scale "mock-up" and/or scale model, and/or computer, and/or video presentation.

 

                          2.       On Design Project Plan due date, submit a single typed page containing:

 

                                    a.  A brief statement of the design problem you will solve;

 

b.     Your planned approach:  target audience or clientele, materials,

                          method of presentation, scale, etc.

 

The completed project should represent at least 30 hours of work and have professional finish.  The project should reflect your understanding of the person, or culture upon which you based the ÒstyleÓ.  It should not be the work of another class project.  After submitting the Student Design Project Plan, a project direction may not be switched.

 

You will present your piece to the class on one of the two dates set aside. You will have about 5 minutes to describe what you did, and answer questions.

 

 

 

 

 

IV.        Student Design Concept (napkin) Project: Spontaneous Ògreat ideaÓ with notes

 

Based on the visual experience of 20th century design lectures, on one side of one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper, draw in pencil, or by any technical/electronic/virtual means, an original design concept for next year.  Give a caption below the image that explains its raison dÕtre.  This is only a sketch with a great idea  - bit more than the idea on a Òpaper napkinÓ. It is NOT the far more extensive Design Project/Presentation.

 

Examples

 

-              A new toaster

-              A better automobile tire

-              A new cell phone design

-              A new form to replace the tin can

-              A new form for the HD TV/computer screen

-              A better stadium seat

-              A better bicycle design

-              A new sustainable architectural form

-              A ÒgreenÓ packaging for meat products

-              A replacement web site for Facebook

 

 

 

V.            Field Trips  These are inserted to make the most of local resources that enhance the course content studied.  Evidence of participation includes discussion, questions, sketches, and notes.

 

a.     To Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption in Covington to gather sketches that capture the Gothic line as a source for Art Nouveau; OR to the Cincinnati Art Museum to gather sketches that capture sources of Art Nouveau, as found in: Celtic manuscript illumination, Rococo, Arts and Crafts (American Mission), Japanese woodcuts, Pre-Raphaelite painting, Paul Gauguin, Vincent Van Gogh, and/or Nabis styles.
