3. CONTEXTS (What are the immediate contexts in which your theoretical and practical research will be
situated? Political? Social? Technological? Aesthetic? Cultural?)
4. THEORETICAL APPROACH (Identify no more than two potential theories that will help structure your
research – must be appropriate to the theme/question)
5. METHODS (Secondary: theorisation, semiotic analysis, textual analysis, content analysis, discourse
analysis / Primary: surveys, interviews, focus groups, observations
6. PRACTICAL OUTCOME (what do you plan to produce/develop?)
7. RESOURCES (what resources will you need to access?)
8. SUMMER READING LIST (find 5 books that you will endeavour to read in preparation for CoP3 - related
to either 3 or 4 above)

Write a project brief to accompany your CoP3 proposal
Your practical brief MUST be clear and specific.
You will be expected to be working through the practical element of the module at the same time as your essay. Do not
treat either element with priority over the other.
Having a clear and specific brief to work on from the beginning will avoid many issues later in the module.
