Theme and Concept Development represent the 153 hours of ‘Studio Materials and
Skills’ as detailed in the research findings. These units are an inseparable
block rather than three discrete units. In practice this block will require
team teaching or teamwork to ascertain what sections of each of the units the
lecturers involved will address. It would not be desirable that any single
lecturer be responsible for teaching all 153 hours of this block, nor would it
be desirable that the units be taught separately.
