Design Studio IV is an important studio where you can choose which topic you sign up for.
It is an important milestone in your studies as you consider which discipline area you might like to specialise in.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Please respect the facilities throughout the University.

In the School of Architecture and Built Environment students are required to fabricate models, projects and other hands-on creative activities. Of course, you will make a mess in the process! No problem! Please clean up after yourself. If the materials are recyclable and you don't want to reuse them yourself, put them in the recycling bins. Don't leave paper/cardboard/offcuts on the floor or table, put them in the bin. Don't leave broken blades etc. on tables, put them in a sharps bin. Don't leave work (models, drawings etc) in a space (tutorial room, computer lab, studio) and expect to find it when you come back. The facilities are shared. The School recommends that you store your work in a locker available from ASA or in Hub Central.

The tables in the learning and teaching spaces (tutorial rooms, computer labs, studios) are NOT cutting mats. Would you use an exacto knife or a scalpel to cut model making materials directly on your dining table at home? No? Don't do it at the University. Use a cutting mat. If you don't have one, buy one. All students should have a cutting mat in their Equipment Kit. You are expected to bring this with you if you are model-making, using glue etc.

Students are permitted to bring food and drink into the learning and teaching spaces. Please respect your peers. When you have finished your bottle of water, coffee cup, bubble tea, Coke, juice, Boost, Red Bull etc. etc. put it in the bin. Don't leave your takeaway meal festering on a table cultivating mould. Put it in the bin.

The importance of hygiene and cleanliness has been amplified during COVID 19. Respect your peers. Respect your facilities. Please clean up after yourself at all times. This is your responsibility.

Recommended Readings:
Please refer to MyUni for details of recommended readings and websites

Speaker Series:
The School has a lecture series where respected practitioners and academics from the field deliver a public lecture on contemporary architectural practice. In order to expand your knowledge of contemporary directions in design it is recommended that you attend these sessions. The exact detail of dates and speakers is available from the School website and the Front Office.

Academic Support:
The Professions Learning Centre (PLC) provides postgraduate coursework students of the Faculty of Professions free academic skills advice on critical analysis and structuring assignments, paraphrasing, referencing, oral presentation skills and other skills to assist with success at university. You are encouraged to take advantage of the service to enable you to improve your performance in your studies. To contact a Learning Advisor please send an email to professions.learningcentre@adelaide.edu.au.

University Email:
The school uses the University email system to get in touch with the students. So it is imperative that you check your email regularly and keep up to date with any new announcements.

As a core course in design, the teaching activities for this course revolve around the collegial exchange in a design studio environment. The studios are not only a place for contact with tutors for individual feedback but also a place for students to have a discussion about the central issues concerning the design process. Therefore, the design work of the various members of the studio will be discussed critically and openly for all to benefit from the reflective process. Students should really try and engage with this process as much as they can and make the most of the limited contact time. The small class sizes and the disciplinary focus of each studio provides a perfect opportunity to achieve this environment of open exchange, and students are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the related content before coming for the session, so as to extract the maximum benefit from their interaction with the tutors and their peers.

The different studio sessions as part of this course operate under the 'atelier method' where established designers/studio leaders use their preferred design process to direct students' learning. Accordingly, the different studios have different projects and different program of activities. These are communicated to the registered students in the first contact week, and a copy of the different programs is also available through MyUni for reference.

General Guidelines:
To ensure the quality of delivery and discussion in these sessions there are some protocols of behaviour that must be adhered to. These include:
- Students need to arrive for the sessions on time and no later than 10 minutes past the hour
- Mobile phones must be switched off or turned to silent, and shouldn’t be accessed during class
- While laptops are allowed, access to social networking media is strictly prohibited during class

In addition to these contact sessions, students need to spend a considerable amount of time on Self-Guided Learning & Research. The workload expectations are outlined in the next section.

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

The University expects full-time students (ie. those taking 12 units per semester) to devote at least 48 hours per week to their studies. Accordingly, students undertaking this 6 unit course are expected to devote 24 hours per week to contact activities and self-guided studies.

Based on this framework here are some figures that might assist workload management:
Total workload hours: 24 Hrs per week x 13 weeks = 312 Hrs
Total contact hours: 6 Hrs per week x 12 weeks = 72 Hrs
Total self-guided study: 312 Hrs – 72 Hrs = 240 Hrs

These 240 hours should be used towards preparation of weekly tasks and for completion of the various assignments associated with the course, including development of various skills required to complete the same. Please organise your time wisely.

This will be available in MyUni.

For those studying in the Landscape Architecture, Urban Design and Architecture modules there will be a combined studio in week 5 where some fun and thought-provoking content will be delivered at our week 5 conference. 

The conference will occur on the Tuesday of week 5 so please make the necessary arrangements to attend. Attendance is mandatory and a cpd (continuing professional development) quiz will be required to be completed while you are at the event. The conference will be catered for lunch and a call out for dietary requirements will be forthcoming. 

This will be available in MyUni.

SUBMISSIONS
All details about the individual assignment submissions and online participation tasks will be provided on MyUni.

Marking & Feedback (General) 
Final results for the course will only be available through Access Adelaide and students should not contact the course coordinator or the tutors for the same. 

Feedback for in-class submissions will only be available during the tutorial as oral critique in the style of studio wall-crits. Students should arrange with peers to make notes for reference.

Please note the following general points about Submissions:

General
The School recommends electronic submissions < 50MB.

All submissions must include Student Name and Student ID Number. Submissions without Student Name or ID Number will not be considered for marking, and will receive zero marks in accordance with the guidelines.

Please adhere to submission deadlines and follow instructions provided.

Students must not submit work for an assignment that has previously been submitted for this course or any other course without prior approval from the Course Coordinator.

On occasion, the lecturer/tutor may wish to retain students’ work for future reference and the relevant student will be informed at such a time.

Use of Chat GPT is not permitted.

Late Submission:
Late submissions are not accepted in the discipline of Architecture or Landscape Architecture. A late submission will receive zero marks. This also applies to electronic submissions. Always submit the work you have completed even if it is unfinished.

Printing delays & hard disk crashes will not be entertained as legitimate causes for delay, so please ensure that the work is finished in advance. Online submissions can also take time when file sizes are large and this can result in delayed submissions. 

Re-submission:
The school has a resubmission policy whereby students can redeem failed work by submitting additional work for a maximum of 50%.

Good practice:
Students should ensure that they regularly backup their work on multiple locations as hard-disk crashes are an unfortunate reality. When relying on community printing facilities, students should attempt to finish their work in advance to avoid unnecessary delays. Students must retain a copy of all assignments submitted (digital or hardcopy), as originals may be lost during the submission process.

The School recommends submissions < 50MB.

For modified arrangements of submission and assessment due to special circumstances see the following Assessment Task Extension(s) & Additional Assessment guidelines.

Modified Arrangements (General)
Students can apply for extensions or modified arrangements based on Medical, Compassionate or other Extenuating circumstances. However, students need to submit their application along with supporting documents within 5 business days of the condition becoming applicable. Submit your application for extension to Course Coordinator TOM DOULL.

The form can be found here: /student/exams/ua/media/706/assessment-extension-form-april-2022_0.pdf Please note that submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance. The Course Coordinator will inform the applicant if the application is accepted. 

Medical Reasons:
In case of an extended medical condition which makes it impossible for the student to submit the work on time, an Application for Assessment Task Extension due to Medical Circumstances must be supported by a doctor’s certificate within 5 business days.

Extenuating Circumstances:
If the student is unable to submit the work on time due to extenuating circumstances an Application for Assessment Task Extension due to Extenuating Circumstances (Blue Form) may be lodged with the Front Office. Please note that this is only available for certain military, religious, or legal obligations and does not extend to minor personal problems.

Compassionate Grounds:
In case of certain extraordinary personal problems students can apply for extensions based on compassionate grounds (Blue Form). However, these must first be discussed with the Course Coordinator in person through appointment during the assigned office hours.
