Topic outline

  • Teaching

    Teaching in this module is designed to integrate and consolidate the students’ understanding of theatre production by working in roles on productions; assisting third year students and taking responsibility where possible for the preparation, budgeting, planning and realisation of productions in a realistic production environment. Teaching builds upon the work undertaken in the pre-requisite Associated Studies option.

    Assessment

    Students are assessed on their practical production activity on a specific allocation. Students are also required to submit a portfolio with supporting evidence of the work they have undertaken. The portfolio includes a journal, an allocation action plan which is agreed at the start of the allocation, and an end of allocation evaluation where the student reflects on the work they have undertaken and self-evaluates their contribution and performance.

    The practical work and portfolio, elements of which students are required to produce as part of their production duties, are marked holistically with a single mark awarded taking both assessment elements into account.
