Teaching for Creative Artistry in Secondary Schools

Course aim

To study a range of theatre production skills and processes with appropriate content, methodologies, materials and curricula to enable the implementation of drama and creative arts performance and products within the secondary educational environment.

Course content

This will involve the exploration of drama-based pedagogies, aesthetics, the elements of the 5 arts subjects, performance and rehearsal strategies and an exploration of performance and production elements. Preservice teachers will view a theatre production for responding purposes and explore connections with the drama and SACE curriculum for teaching and learning in drama and creative arts.
