NCEA Level 3 – Design 2008

Design is a practical and theoretical course in which you will explore and develop ideas thematically. Design involves producing creative and innovative design solutions in two or three dimensions. You will work with Design briefs that involve research, the generation of creative ideas, and production of finished artwork, some of which will be computer based. You need the ability to think and work independently and the creativity to generate and re-generate ideas in the making of art-works. Drawing and the ability to communicate ideas visually are essential to this course. Design is both internally and externally assessed.
