This course provides senior student with the opportunity to explore an area of art education, which is of particular interest. In collaboration with a staff number, students undertake a study in some issue or topic in art or design education, which is not encountered in other scheduled courses. Students are expected to demonstrate initiative and organisational skills in independently pursuing the research process and reaching educational objectives through completion of a series of preliminary investigations and construction of a short critical paper arguing a position regarding the selected issue/topic.
