Problem_solving | Creative problem solving, outcome recognition, and the identification of appropriate strategies and procedures, are encouraged and assessed across the duration of the module | ||
Research skills | Appropriate personal research and the development of effective personal research practices, are implicitly encouraged throughout the module, and are assessed through their impact on the development and presentation of the assessed demonstrations. | ||
Communication | The individual student¿s ability to articulate and communicate their ideas and opinions is developed across the duration of the module. This area of development is encouraged and assessed within all aspects of the processes and presentations involved, and the assessment forms recognise effective communication across verbal and performative material. | ||
Improving own Learning and Performance | Self-regulation, motivation and time-management are demanded to maintain engagement with the development of the course and the completion of its concomitant assessed assignments. Assessment procedures recognise effective self-management and self-motivation. | ||
Team work | Group working is addressed across the duration of the module. Practical classes demand the application of skills necessary to conduct successful collaborative activity. The assessed group demonstration relates directly to the development and employment of such skills. | ||
Information Technology | Skills of information handling are not formally assessed, but are exercised through the conduct of research, presentation processes, and the collation of materials within the process of group working and individual study. | ||
Application of Number | This element is not assessed. | ||
Personal Development and Career planning | The module encourages the initial development of skills directly applicable to careers within cultural (particularly theatre/performance) industries. Further transferable skills (project planning and execution, the development of personal creative initiatives) are also developed through the completion of assessment tasks, though careers need awareness does not of itself constitute an assessed element. | ||
Subject Specific Skills | Communication through non-verbal means. And the presentation of self, confidently and with spatial awareness, through the articulation of physical behaviour. |
