Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Weekly workshops will focus on collaborative exploration, and on learning from both doing and evaluating. You will work in groups and on your own to develop complex, believable scenes and monologues from the canon of classical drama that will test your imagination and creativity (LOs 1-4). Chosen work will show increasing complexity as the term develops. Because you will be working with peers in every session, and because learning often arises spontaneously from the work in hand, regular attendance is vital.You will be doing research into the cultural contexts of a variety of texts and will discover how to develop your performances so that they express your understanding of the specific contextual conditions that determine meaning in text (LOs 2&4). Each assignment will require a practical demonstration of your increasing ability to find secure imaginative and emotional connections with the written word, and an ability to bring language to life in an engaging, complex and believable way – however historically placed.
|
Feedback given immediately by both tutor and peers in weekly workshops allow you to understand your own progress and to adjust your learning goals and objectives as classes progress
|
The summative assessment mark will be composed of two elements:1.)Continuous observation of class contribution and progress (50%), which will involve written and practical preparation as well as rehearsals and performances of scenes throughout the term and 2.) final performance (50%) of a range of materials which may include scenes and/or monologues as appropriate. Assessed against explicit assessment criteria rubric.
