NCEA Level 3 Design & Visual Communication

13DES
Course Description

Teacher in Charge: S. Stephen.

Recommended Prior Learning

Students have completed Level 2 Design and Visual Communication.


If offered at the College, then this is very likely to be part of a three year level class. Whether online or in class students, will have to work with a very high level of independence, be highly motivated and have excellent skills including: sketching and rendering, CAD and a thorough understanding of the design process. Aspects of the course will require students to self teach as the other year groups will require more support.

The course will cover both product and spatial design and involve students identifying their own contexts as well as developing their own briefs and requirements.
