London College of Exhibitionists… LCC graduates reveal themselves for final time in June

SHOW_OV SCREEN_PLASMA 2_Page_2

Throughout June graduating London College of Communication (LCC) students reveal their work in three exhibitions around the central theme of London College of Exhibitionists.

[They] Whisper it quietly but LCC graduates are driving the creative industries, modestly defining the landscape of media and design through photography, design, graphics, film, TV, advertising, PR, journalism, publishing and printing.

Usually behind the scenes, the cameras and the campaigns, we don’t like to make a fuss. But this summer we’re inviting you to take a closer look at the next generation of LCC graduates. So that before you check the credits, before you wonder who took the photograph, created those graphics, told that story, you can note the names of these gifted young creatives – because you’re certain to be exposed to their talent in years to come.

Calling all LCF students! Survey on attendance, motivation and participation

HHblueprint

Survey on attendance, motivation and participation

For the last eight months we have been talking to a number of you in focus groups across courses, to hear your views on three issues which we think are central to your progression and success. From these discussions we’ve picked out recurring themes and specific statements and now want to see how the rest of you feel about them.

Your opinions are essential to helping us support you in the future, whether through educational policy, course delivery, or learning and teaching methods. All it takes is ten minutes of your time to fill out a very simple, anonymous, ‘click box’ survey, though if you want to add any further comments of your own in the free text box you are welcome to do so.

This is your chance to tell us about what motivates you to learn, makes you want to turn up and get involved in all aspects of your course at LCF.

New MyArts Portal

The new MyArts prototype has been published to enable us to take on board your feedback. It is simply a new way of accessing existing information that is intended only for internal consumption. As shown below, the way to access the new site is via the link on the current MyArts:

new myarts 1

MyArts is a Portal, which is a gateway that, with further development, can be customised according to your role. In parallel with developing the portal, we are also at the first stage of developing a more comprehensive staff Intranet. The aim of the new MyArts prototype portal is to provide a new entrance page to the Intranet for all staff.

Why are we developing the Intranet?

There are two projects underway that will have an impact on internally-facing content: the website redevelopment and the replacement of Blackboard by Moodle.

Isn’t my MyArts an intranet?

No. The existing My Arts is actually part of the external website, not an intranet. However over the years it has been used as an intranet, which means it contains a lot of University content which should not be in the public domain.

The project to redevelop the UAL and Colleges’ external website, will be launched in September. One of the key objectives for the new website is to communicate more effectively with our external audiences. Therefore much of the internally-focused material that currently sits on the external website will be moved to the new intranet, to enable external audiences (such as prospective students, regulatory authorities and the creative industries) to find relevant content more easily and make sure that we are not sharing internal information with the general public.

What goes in Moodle and what goes on the Intranet?

There have been a number of questions regarding what goes on Moodle and what should go on the Intranet. The information on Blackboard listed under ‘organisations’ that doesn’t often change, for example info sheets, regs, policies etc, will transfer to the Intranet. Course-related information and anything based around student and staff feedback and dialogue will be transferred to Moodle.

We are currently working with content owners to identify the appropriate location and support migration of the spaces to the new environments. However, we would very much like your views on the new MyArts. Please could you complete feedback on the new MyArts by Wednesday 23rd May.

New Estates Team uniforms designed by LCF talent

Henrietta Adams: BA (Hons) Fashion Design and Development

Henrietta Adams: BA (Hons) Fashion Design and Development

In the autumn term of 2012, the UAL Estates team commissioned second year students from the BA (Hons) Fashion Design and Development course to re-design the UAL Facilities staff uniforms.

Henrietta Adams, BA (Hons) Fashion Design and Development, whose designs impressed the UAL Estates team in 2012 will now see her designs go into production.

Henrietta is currently working with several skilled LCF technicians to create spec sheets and patterns, before these are handed over to the manufacturers.

Her outfits, which are inspired by American Engineering uniforms, will become the new facilities work wear across UAL’s campuses.

Henrietta said: “I wanted the uniform to be fresh, smart and modern, but mostly something that people would feel proud to wear whilst still retaining all the practicalities of a uniform.”

Designs by runners up, Sian Lawrence and Laura Fisher, who are also studying BA (Hons) Fashion Design and Development, can be seen on a newly launched blog, alongside work from other students who took part.

UAL facilities managment staff will be wearing the new uniforms by the end of this year.
