Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Teaching will take the form of a seminar in which plays are discussed and analysed in a small interactive group. The focus of each seminar will be on practical challenges posed by the plays and will involve group work and individual presentations. (LOs 1-4). Participants will present the result of independent study and creative activity as well as written work (LO 5)Embedding of employability/PDP/Scholarship SkillsThe design of this programme is such that all practical modules simulate professional conditions and all theoretical modules inculcate skills that are valued by employers across a range of industries. Specifically, both practical and theoretical modules promote advanced skills in: communication, creative-problem solving, working collaboratively, working with a high-level of autonomy, and excellent time-management.Research / teaching linkagesThis module requires a depth of research into critical theory and literary structure and also promotes original creative response to specific practical challenges. Supporting equality and diversityIn the design of this programme, and in its delivery, we are committed to promoting equality of opportunity for all, and to ensuring that no individual is discriminated against. The nature of creating and producing new performance work is such that we feel staff and students will have the opportunity actively to promote multicultural points of view. Small intake across this course ensures that we will be able to respond to students individually, and to employ a variety of teaching and assessment methods to support a student’s learning experience. We will value the diverse experience that students from a wide variety of backgrounds bring to the work and the structure of this programme is such that it gives voice to that variety of experience. InternationalisationGiven the context of our delivery in Edinburgh, and the student residency for at least one if not two of the summer festivals, we are certain that students will be made aware of the international potential for their work, as well as the presence of international practice that can inspire the same in students’ work. Additionally, we hope to target a number of universities internationally in the hope of building an globally diverse cohort each year.

Formative assessment takes place through continual feedback and dialogue between students and tutor in the seminars. Summative assessment is based on project presentation and final written analysis.
