Class Presentations, 20% • Each tutorial group will be assigned a time period and a week (e.g. Feb 4, 1930 – 1940) and will then divide into 5 disciplines: Painting, Dance, Theatre, Film and Music. • These sub groups will collectively create…a presentation with exemplars and clarifications from this period focusing on one of the five disciplines. • These 5 sub groups will consolidate their material and present for the entire class for 40 minutes during the lecture period assigned to them. • Each presentation ends with a brief Q & A and a one page in class written reflection which is to be handed in at the end of the class. • Tutorial time will be given for the creation of these presentations.
