9 5. Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategies 5.1. Learning and Teaching Strategy Teaching and learning strategies adopted within the MA Media, Film and Television Production derive from the University s plan as it applies to the education of creative media professionals while at the same time ensuring the development of a wide range of transferable skills. Teaching and learning is undertaken through lectures, seminars, workshops, masterclasses from visiting media professionals, screenings, group and personal tutorials, presentations, independent and collaborative research activity and group and individual production projects. Students are expected to examine critically (on their own initiative and under supervision) a range of media programmes and products as well as a wide range of texts, magazines, academic journals and websites. They will also be expected to demonstrate a rising level of skills acquisition in a graded series of practice projects the production of which also provides opportunities to present and discuss their own work in seminars. All modules will require a significant element of independent working in a range of activity relating to research, production and execution of module assignments which are assessed in a variety of forms. Within the ethos of the student as producer initiative, whilst some early practical projects are concerned with the interpretation of set themes, later & final practical projects derive from students establishing their own specific objectives for projects through written proposals setting out the parameters of its intended achievements. Once agreed with tutors, assessment takes place against the agreed objectives of the production Assessment Strategy A range of assessment strategies are used: project work, essays, case studies, presentations, pitches, portfolios and a final major production project (together with a production diary, funding and marketing plan, production file, critique and all other materials relevant to the creation of the work). Production project work will engage students in the process of forming individually developed proposals which engage with the students own creativity and skills, and in the context of individual authorship. Some project work may involve students working in small core teams (as, for example, in the case of students undertaking the single camera production) where specific authorship of different media elements is made clear at the outset of the proposal. Other project work will involve students working individually (as, for example, in the case of students undertaking the screenwriting, animated media). There will be, however, discretion to allow students in the latter specialisms to work in pairs, depending on the depth, complexity and nature of the project. Essays, case studies, presentations, pitches and portfolios will be undertaken individually. During the preparation and planning of project work, students will be given opportunities for formative assessment through discussions about progress and be able to make modifications as the project work develops. On completion, the project will be assessed summatively. In undertaking essays, case studies and presentations, students will be given opportunities, in group and individual tutorial sessions, to discuss progress before submitting work for summative assessment. It is envisaged that developmental work for the final project at masters stage will be developed during the Final Pitch component of the Media, Film and Television Production 2 and Final Programme Pitch Module. This module allows students to gain feedback through formative assessment opportunities in group and individual tutorials before being assessed summatively to confirm the final media, film and television project plan. Student as Producer principles operate at a number of levels across both theory and practice. This includes projects in which assessment takes place against the objectives established by the student and created by them in written proposal form at the outset of the practical and some theory assignments, in particular the case study and presentation for the Media Industries module. Page 9/20

10 At the commencement of the course an induction booklet is provided which outlines overall university procedures and regulations relating to a range of assessment issues. Individual module guides are also issued at the outset of the course which provide detailed outlines of the sylabus, organisation and assessment procedures. Individual module guides will outline learning outcomes as well as the assessment tasks, criteria and deadlines deployed by the module. This includes outlines of masters level criteria and expectations. Essays and portfolios will be assessed by tutors individually and then double marked according to the procedures outlined in the University assessment regulations. Presentations will be assessed live by two or more staff and recorded for the external examiners review; Project work will be set and double marked by teams of staff who will establish and agree criteria and comparability across a range of projects and specialisms. Assessment feedback is provided in a range of forms. Formative feedback is provided verbally during formatively assessed presentations as well as individual tutorial sessions. Feedback for summative assessment is provided in writing, either through the electronic Blackboard system, e mail or hard copy and reinforced through tutorials. Page 10/20
