Learning outcomes |
Development of design skills in the area of industrial design, namely in the development of objects of small to medium scale and medium complexity. Mastery of the phases of the design process worked on in the discipline: research, concept development, moodboard, drawing/sketching, 2D technical drawing, 3D modeling, rendering, modeling/prototyping and presentation (storytelling). Develop skills of analysis, synthesis, critical thinking and debate through in-depth collection of products. Deepening of the adequacy of fundamental technical knowledge for the execution of the project. Ability to apply knowledge in practice individually and in teams. Coherence and balance in the articulation between creative and rational thinking: functionality. Awareness of the argumentation and communication of the developed product: storytelling. Development of individual and team work skills: multitasking.

Syllabus |
Development of two projects of medium complexity at hand scale, with technical and conceptual diversity between the two. Awareness of the importance of the phases of the design process in the development of a product. Introduction of the briefing and analysis of examples of related objects and authors.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Theoretical-practical classes with rotating individual monitoring that seek to strengthen capacities individually and in groups. Execution of two sequential exercises, using the debated theory, technological tools appropriate to each phase of work and workshops. Knowledge sharing, presentation of reference examples and debate on thought, functionality, society, sustainability, among other fundamental aspects of the project. Articulation with the Course Units of Modeling and Digital Design 1. The evaluation is continuous and reflects the quality, balance, adequacy and consistency of the project, as well as the commitment, attendance and punctuality of the student. In each delivery, the evaluation corresponds to the total performance up to the respective phase and not just the material delivered. All deliveries are mandatory on the set date. The failure of any delivery is eliminatory. P1 Rating (40%), P2 assessment (50%), Continuous assessment (10%). UC with exam and possibility of impr
