Within Content of Course; 1- Project Informing, Researching and Sketch Process:Educator who will instruct the course will convey project information, necessary material and project process to the students. Basic techniques which will be used for project will be conveyed to students both theoretically and practically. Visual research and sketch (drawing or pre-application) is requested from students according to qualification of project. Selected sketch s appropriateness with project is evaluated, criteria from design to production are considered and then sketch is selected or suggestions are provided for sketches which need to be developed.
2- Production Process, Jury Evaluation
After selection and technical analysis of sketches according to production criteria, problems are solved if any. Later qualification and quantity of materials to be used in sketch production are specified and necessary preparations are performed. Production stages are listed for each student to study and production starts in workshop. Problems which could be faced during stage from sketch to product are shared, and learning of these problems by all students by observation is provided.
