Introduction

Introduction

The art of oral storytelling is an artistic expression that creates an inner imagery in the audience's imagination rather than displaying or dramatising actual images. Oral storytelling takes place as an open and direct interaction between the storyteller and the audience. The aim of this course is to provide a basic introduction to the art of oral storytelling, including its craft, tradition and function in contemporary forms of media expression. This course is suited for everyone wishing to express themselves verbally, either artistically or applied. The Art of Storytelling is a practical course.

Applicants may be able to take this course as an individual course if there are vacant places.

Assessment

The exam in the course is twofold:

1. An oral presentation

The oral presentation has a duration of 15 minutes and will discuss a topic within the subject that the candidate finds relevant. In the oral presentation, the student will discuss his / her experience from the study against theory.

The assessment counts 20 percent of the final grade.

2. Individual assessment of the student in a oral storytelling performance with pertaining oral exams. Three-weeks of preparation time is given. The artistic expression lasts for 20 minutes. The oral exam lasts for 10 minutes. The exam is defined as an oral/practical exam, and cannot therefore be appealed. The assessment of the artistic solo expression with oral exam counts for 80 per cent of the final grade.

Both parts of the exam must be awarded a grade E or better in order for the student to be awarded a final grade. The two parts of the exam in the final exam result in one final grade. This will be stated on the transcript of grades/diploma.

Students who due to valid absence do not take one or several exam parts that make up the ordinary exam, or who are awarded 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 a rescheduled exam in part 1, the in-depth assignment is written as in the ordinary exam.

If the student is taking a resit exam, the in-depth assignment graded F in the ordinary exam must be significantly reworked/improved - e.g. based on the explanation of grades. If the student is taking a resit/rescheduled exam in part 2, it must be taken pursuant to agreement with the faculty administration. Four weeks’ preparation time is given. The students are responsible for contacting the administration themselves.
