1. Apply a range of basic technical skills
2. Demonstrate creative exploration of materials
3. Integrate concepts and processes at a basic level
4. Demonstrate basic awareness of historical and theoretical contexts for artistic practice in the discipline

Portfolio of studio work and visual journal (80%) and Documentation (20%). Assessment includes periodic critique and review sessions that provide ongoing feedback on work in progress.
