Case Study 3. Re-Assessing the Fine Art Computational Arts (FACA) Technical Workshops Program.
Re-thinking the delivery strategy. As a technician on Camberwell’s Fine Art Computational Arts course I am solely responsible for organising and structuring the workshops program alongside academic feedback. I have identified a requirement for assessing student engagement with the technical workshops program in order to ensure parity of access across the Computational Arts cohorts. This…

Case Study 2. Effectively Enhancing Student Computer Literacy and Engagement With Industry Standard Tools.
Key Observations. Whilst it is assumed that students starting the Fine Art Computational Arts course may have a core interest in exploring technology as a part of their evolving art practices, it has become evident from my 4 years working on the course, that many Computational Arts students struggle with computer literacy. In this case…

Case Study 1. Observing Diverse Personal Access to Computational Learning.
Identifying a Lack of Access to Technology. The Fine Art Computational Arts pathway was conceived of 4 years ago at Camberwell College of Art to allow for experimentation within the Fine Art department in contemporary technological studio practices. My role as the Lead Specialist Technician on the course is to support the development and learning…
