NBU Digital Architecture: Assessment Documents

Hi all, this page is where the assessment documents and updates will be communicated. Assessment 1 is designed specifically for this challenging time, taking into accounts the Doodle poll that only 40% of you have access to the software. Peer assessment link will be published in Week 13. Assessment 2 is a reflective report on your computational design thinking practice throughout the semester.

I would suggest to read these documents by the beginning of Week 8, so that you have a full picture of the upcoming assessments to be able to plan them better. Refer to Week 7 materials for the theoretical lenses underpinning the assessments.

DEEP Initiative in UNNC

DEEP (Design-Engineering-Engagement-Practicality) initiative is a year long project in University of Nottingham Ningbo China, during academic year 2019-2020. The first semester includes hands-on workshops delivered by contributors, guest talks and second semester will entail facilitation of projects development. Towards the end of second semester, 10 selected projects will be exhibited in a public exhibition. The initiative is open for all undergraduate students.

The initiative is led by Dr Sannia Mareta and I am taking part as an external contributor. Mainly I contribute on delivering design related skills and mentoring.

Supported by 1920 Small Teaching and Learning Development Grant.

Happy Christmas

This Christmas I made some laser cut baubles, putting my rusty AutoCAD skill to use at last 🙂 Made around 650 of them in total for the Christmas market and personalised orders. 22 meticulous design and A-Z. Anyway, here is hoping for a Merry Christmas and have a fantastic 2019! Cheers.
