Assessment Task Description:
The Research Project should present a response to your Research Questions. This response should consist of academic research, and it may also include field research or design concepts. As such, your project can take one of several different forms: a Research Essay, or a Case Study, or the development of a Design Concept and Exegesis. In each case you will be exploring your chosen methodology and its possible application.
The project should draw upon 6-10 relevant academic texts. All research materials should be correctly referenced using Chicago in-text citations and a full bibliography. Where you discuss design examples, field research, or your own design concepts, you should provide documentation of these items. Development of the research and the possible approaches will be discussed in workshops in our latter seminars.
