| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Teaching and learning takes the following forms:You will actively participate in tutorials for your principal study instrument in which theories and concepts will be discussed, analysed and put into practice in group and/or individual activities, performances or presentations (LOs 1, 2, 3 and 4).You will actively participate in classes and workshops, engaging with ensemble focused practice, musicianship, and interaction, and arranging musical repertoire (LOs 1, 2, 3 and 4).You will actively engage with Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) presentations and tasks provided on Moodle as an introduction to core concepts of music theory, stylistics, instrument care and technique (LOs 1 and 3).You will actively engage in personal and ensemble practice. Individually and collaboratively you will practice repertoire and exercises, experimenting with techniques and musical stylistics. You will identify areas for improvement individually and as an ensemble and devise strategies to contribute to your individual and collective development (LOs 1, 2, 3 and 4).
|
Formative Assessment regularly occurs in tutorial and ensemble performance settings.Personalised formative feedback is at the core of the learning experience within principal study tutorials. In every tutorial you will receive feedback and guidance that will enable you to identify and target areas where development and focused practice is required. This formative feedback will enable compilation of relevant materials and reflection contributing to your portfolio assessment to be submitted in week 12 of trimester 2. You will be allocated to an ensemble and develop repertoire independently. This repertoire is then performed for peers and tutors during allocated performance workshop times. Following your performance you will receive verbal feedback as an ensemble from peers and tutors. Feedback will follow principles of ‘plussing’, in which critique is given dispassionately and constructive criticism is always followed up with an offer of a solution, addition or amendment.

There are three summative assessments for this module.Recital 1 – Ensemble Performance. Your first summative assessment for this module will take place in week 15 of trimester 1. You will be asked to arrange and perform pieces as part of a specialist ensemble (e.g. guitar quartet, vocal quartet, piano duet). These exams are worth 30% of your overall mark for the module. The skills gained for these assessments contribute to your realisation of LOs 1, 2, 3 and 4Portfolio. You will be asked to document your development on your principal study instrument through diary entries, audio and video recordings, and other media to be submitted as a digital portfolio. Entries will be completed and submitted at strategic points, as per tutor guidance, over the course of the module. You will be encouraged to reflect on your progress as a musician and performer and to demonstrate your ability to plan independently in order to achieve your goals. The focus will be primarily on the development of your technique and musicianship on your principal study instrument, including reflection on your personal practice, preparation for classes/tutorials and how you have followed up on feedback you receive. The completed portfolio will be submitted in week 12 of trimester 2. This assessment is worth 40% of your overall mark for the module. The skills gained for this assessment contribute to your realisation of L.O.s 1, 2 and 3Recital 2 – Performance. Your third summative assessment for this module will take place in Week 15 of trimester 2. You will be asked to perform two pieces, from repertoire developed over the second trimester, in a context that best suits your musical focus in classical and/or popular music idioms. You will perform a third piece, as part of a larger ensemble, learnt from a lead sheet or score provided one week prior to this exam. These exams are worth 30% each of your overall mark for the module. The skills gained for these assessments contribute to your realisation of LOs 1, 2, 3 and 4
