APPENDIX E
ARRANGEMENT FOR THE VISIT
1.0

Preamble
The Visiting Panel would prefer to see each School as it usually is in everyday use, with as many of the studios and lectures as possible operating in their normal way.

   
2.0 Course Work Exhibition
2.1

To display a complete range of studio work with programmes attached to each subject in all years of the course to be arranged chronologically so as to show the development of the curriculum throughout the entire course. Drawings should be hung separately and consecutively with the exception of large sets of drawings, which are best overlapped. The line of demarcation between the work of each year should be clear. Examples of written thesis and dissertations should also be made available. As far as is practicable the sequence of work shown should follow the sequence of the course.

2.2

In selecting the work for the exhibition, the School is asked to display a cross-section of the students' works rather than just the works of the best students.

2.3

The School is asked to arrange for a member of the staff to explain briefly the work of each year. The Panel is interested in the philosophy or main objectives of each year and their relation with the preceding and following year.

   
3.0 Standards
3.1

Portfolio of two average students and of two students who achieved the lowest pass should be made available for each year of the course. If the School wishes to show the portfolio of the best student in the year this can be added. The basis of the selection - average, lowest or highest - is made clear on the portfolio. The preparatory material as well as the final drawings should also be included in the portfolios so as to reveal the students' approach to projects.

3.2

The portfolios should include work which the student has done in preceding years so as to build up a total picture of his progress. For example the portfolio of a Third Year student should contain his First and Second Year work.

3.3

Dissertations and other mainly written work such as reports or essays which are on the pass margin and of average quality should also be made available, clearly labelled as such.

   
4.0

Examinations
To provide information on the following :

4.1

The system of examinations used in the School including information on the subjects examined, duration of examinations, feedback to students and staff.

4.2

The School's method of assessing design work and the level of performance which students are expected to maintain.

4.3

Copies of all current examination question papers together with student scripts and mark sheets. The examination papers should be grouped in sets of related subjects and clearly marked in years. Papers on the border of pass and fail should be flagged so as to enable members of the Panel to check the pass/fail standard quickly. The usual mark sheets should be attached to each set of papers.

   
5.0 Meeting With Staff And Students
5.1

The Panel would like to have the opportunity to meet the fulltime staff of the School and as many of the part-time staff as is practicable both informally in the studios and at a roundtable meeting.

5.2

The Panel would also like to meet students in the studios and a representative group of students from each year.
