Vicki Crawford —

This course is all about creating your own drama piece

When:

Term Three

Subject Area(s)

Drama

NCEA L1-3

Requirements

Students will need to be able to record their daily work and upload it to me and will need a partner or group of 3 to work in, for devising. I will also need you to be able to attend live theatre shows and to attend a workshop in Tapanui.

Assessment

This standard involves working in a group (within the Net NZ Drama community) to research an event for a possible theme, develop a factual character and develop a scenario to build a drama around as part of that group. (Possibly by emailing group members if not at your school.) It is possible to use Toitu Museum in Dunedin for stimulation for such events and then assessment day will be a workshop and filming day at Toitu. Assessment day will either be @ Toitu or @ Net NZ Drama teachers’ school, tba- once group dynamics and geographic’s are formed 

Level 1: AS90997 v3 Devise and Perform a drama. - 5 credits (Term 3/4)

Level 2: AS 91214 v2 Devise and Perform a drama to realise an intention. – 5 credits (Term 3/4)

Level 3: AS91513 v3 Devise and perform a Drama to realise a concept. - 5 credits (Term 3/4)

EXTERNALS

All 3 levels (NCEA L1-3) will sit 1 external paper for 4 credits based on their Theatre Form standards covered throughout the year.

OPTIONS: There is a 2nd external (4 credits) that can be sat if students have been able to see and study a suitable Live performance as a part of the NETNZ Drama group. (This is at the Drama teachers invite and discretion.)

Students who do a full Drama course may be able to use’ Student Direction’ standards or ‘Performance in a school production’ standards, if have a lead role and the show can be filmed for this purpose. Again, at the discretion and agreement of the Drama Net NZ teacher.
