Course detail
FaVU-1OBAT1Acad. year: 2024/2025
The studio is a basic creative course in the study program. Its central content is the students' own design practice. For this practice, the studio provides them with the material conditions given by a specific space and a specific media or technological orientation. It provides them with a welcoming and stimulating environment for reflection and contextualization of their own creative intentions in ongoing communication with teachers and other students. A pair of leading pedagogues is responsible for running the studio. The student works individually on her own creation and/or collectively in a studio group. When working, he respects the ethical rules agreed by the group based on the basic principles of equal rights and opportunities, respect for others, solidarity and ecological sustainability. Takes good care of the shared space. During the individual or collective realization of partial and more complex authorial outputs, students acquire conceptual thinking about their work, technical skills and knowledge of relevant material processes or technological procedures, the ability to verbally articulate their own intention, orientation in relevant theoretical approaches and disciplines, an overview of topics in the current field of design and broader public debates, the ability to critically evaluate and contextualize one's own creative practice. The schedule and specific content of studio practice, teaching methods and criteria and assessment methods are defined in the opening hours of each semester. They thus reflect the composition of the students in the studio as well as the current design, social and environmental context. The assignment or topic of the studio practice has an individual or collective character and is determined by personal agreement between the students and the responsible teachers. The creative process is accompanied by ongoing presentations and consultations. Consultations can take place both collectively in the form of periodic studio meetings and individually. Students are also motivated to consult their creative practice with other personalities working in the field. Technological and theoretical support for work on studio projects is provided by managers in cooperation with cabinets and KTDU.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Evaluation of student work is ongoing throughout the semester in the form of verbal feedback. It is optional to invite external experts in the field or other FaVU teachers or other members of the academic community to give in-depth or additional feedback one or several times per semester. At the end of the semester, the work is evaluated by awarding credit. The following conditions are set for the award of credit:
Classes take place in the studio space at FaVU, or at other locations according to the current program. Attendance at the class is mandatory (75% attendance at regular studio meetings is mandatory). If the class includes training presentations with external guests, outdoor course, workshops, lectures, visits to exhibitions, excursions, online meetings, etc., attendance at these activities is also mandatory. Higher absences can be compensated for in an individually determined way in agreement with the teachers.
Aims
The aim of the course is to provide students with material conditions and a welcoming and stimulating environment for development in the field of design. Through the continuous implementation of author's outputs, their consultation and participation in joint activities, students should acquire the ability to think conceptually about their own work, technical skills and theoretical overview, which will prepare them for the performance of professional design practice.
Students will acquire knowledge and skills that should allow them to survive in the professional environment of the field of design, such as conceptual thinking about their work, technical skills and knowledge of relevant material processes or technological procedures, the ability to verbally articulate their own project, orientation in relevant theoretical approaches and disciplines, an overview of topics in the current field of design, the ability to critically evaluate and contextualize one's own creative practice.
