Assessment

The exam in the course is twofold:

1. Development assignment - individual

The assignment must be on an issue linked to dramaturgy and relevant theory. 4500-5500 Words.

Assessed by two examiners. The course may be selected for grading by external examiners.

The assessment counts for 40% of the final pass grade.

The result of the exam can be appealed.

2. Practical exam - group

A group performance of approximately 20-30 minutes duration. Three weeks of preparation time is given. The group's written dramaturgical analysis and directing concept are submitted in advance.

The assessment of the practical performance exam counts for 60% of the final pass grade. The result of the exam cannot be appealed.

Assessment

A grade scale with grades from A to E for pass (with A being the highest grade and E being the lowest pass grade) and F for fail is used for the final assessment.

In some cases, the practical/oral group exams can be held as individual exams.

Both parts of the exam must be awarded the grade E or better in order for the student to pass the course.

Absence - fail

Students who due to valid absence do not take one or several exam parts that make up the ordinary exam, or who are given an F in one or more of the exam parts that make up the exam, can register for a resit/rescheduled exam.

If the student is taking the rescheduled exam in part 1 (the development project), it is done in the same way as for the ordinary exam. If the student is taking the resit exam, the development project that was graded F in the ordinary exam must be significantly reworked/improved - e.g. based on the grounds given for the grade.

If the student is taking the resit/rescheduled exam in part 2, it must be taken pursuant to agreement with the student administration. Three weeks’ preparation time is given. The students are responsible for contacting the student administration themselves.
