Synopsis
In Jewellery Practice 3 the experience of previous units is used to incrementally build upon and extend students' knowledge and experience in both making and critical thinking.
The continued research of contemporary jewellery and its various contexts, supports the student's increased understanding of the potential of the practice and the opportunity to develop innovative ideas.
The emphasis in this unit is on facilitating the development of student's ideas with increasing sophistication that demonstrates an advanced level of practice, underpinned by practical and theoretical research.
