Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & teaching methods including their alignment to LosThe module will consist of a series of seminars in which you will submit and develop your project ideas LO 1,2). This will culminate in a pitch presentation of your project proposal mid way through the module. As the module proceeds, sessions will evolve into tutorials, in order to advance the preproduction of these projects (LO 3).In parallel with this, a series of crits run alongside self-directed exercises and studies in your chosen discipline (LO 5). This time will allow you the chance to experiment and develop your voice through small projects, to give a critical presentation on a film-maker or movement of your choosing (LO 4) and to perform a case study on a professional practice subject of relevance to your own specialism (LO 3, 5, 6).Embedding of employability/PDP/scholarship skillsStudents will write a Personal Development Plan that outlines their plans, aspirations, and goals in their career within and beyond the MFA programme. This will form part of their portfolio hand in, and will help to shape the eventual content of that portfolio.Students’ choice of project will be geared to the aspirations and goals listed in their PDP.Employability skills developed: Writing, speaking, creativity, action planning, negotiating, presenting, self-reliance, motivating others, attention to quality.Assessment (formative and summative)Students create a PDP and work up three creative exercises (LO 5), a case study (LOs 3,5,6) and critical study (LO 4), a total of five submissions, which will be presented at a series of crits throughout the two trimesters [each submitted as a hard copy and presentation lasting 30-45 mins.] The crits, which occur at regular intervals throughout the two trimesters, provide an opportunity for formative feedback, and the work will be assessed summatively through the submission of a portfolio containing these materials at the end of trimester 2.
