Aims of the Course

Weeks Learning Outcomes Topics Teaching Methods
Week - 1 Introduction to brush techniques; demonstration of proper brush handling, control of pressure, and application of basic line exercises (thin–thick line studies).
Week - 2 Development of brush control; conducting nuanced line studies, rhythmic repetitions, continuous line production, and exercises aimed at improving hand–eye coordination.
Week - 3 Application of outlining (tahrir) techniques on bisque ceramic tile surfaces; producing curved lines, spirals, and fluid forms using brush, ruling pen (tirlin), and compass. Creating motifs and preparing them for transfer onto ceramic tile surfaces through perforation. Teaching pattern transfer techniques (tracing paper, pouncing/perforation, and charcoal transfer) through practical exercises.
Week - 4 Transferring prepared designs onto ceramic tile surfaces using traditional methods. Applying underglaze decoration techniques on ceramic tile surfaces, including color application, tonal variation, and layered painting.
Week - 5 Completion of underglaze decoration applications on ceramic tile surfaces. Preparation of glaze, application onto the surface, and execution of glaze firing.
Week - 6 Introduction to engobe (slip) decoration; defining engobe, explaining its areas of use, and evaluating its effects on ceramic tile surfaces. Conducting surface painting and texture creation exercises using engobe.
Week - 7 Introduction to the cuerda seca (colored glaze) technique; explaining its historical background and application principles. Performing basic compositional applications on ceramic tile surfaces.
Week - 8 Introduction to overglaze luster technique; explaining metallic surface effects and application processes. Conducting experimental luster applications on ceramic tile surfaces.
Week - 9 Comparative analysis of engobe, underglaze, cuerda seca, and luster techniques, and evaluation of their combined use on ceramic tile surfaces. Applying multiple techniques on a single ceramic tile surface and producing experimental contemporary design studies.
Week - 10 Initiation of the project development phase; creating original and contemporary designs based on traditional motifs. Constructing depth and material relationships on ceramic tile surfaces through a multilayered decoration approach. Producing designs for experimental applications combining multiple techniques.
Week - 11 Transferring students’ original designs onto ceramic tile surfaces and continuing application processes using hybrid techniques. Providing individual technical and aesthetic guidance.
Week - 12 Continuation of project work on ceramic tile surfaces; further development of layered decoration techniques and enhancement of technical diversity.
Week - 13 Finalizing applications on ceramic tile surfaces; ensuring surface quality, technical execution, and compositional integrity.
Week - 14 Presentation of completed original designs on ceramic tile surfaces. Evaluation based on technical diversity, surface utilization, material control, and the integration of traditional and contemporary approaches.
