I had a bit of
a panic starting this module. I'd decided the topic of inquiry I'd chosen from
the 1st campus session; Should professional colleges be doing more to
bridge the gap between education to becoming a working professional? Was
just a bit too close to home. Though I definitely think it's along the lines of
an area I'd like to explore, investigate and improve, I just felt that with
that particular question I'd have too many personal opinions and would find it
hard to collect data from a neutral place.
I then had a brainstorm for
other possible lines of inquiry, but found that I was so focused on finding an
end topic that I didn't find it that helpful. So I went back to the start. Read
the Reader and module handbook again and realised I was making it much too
complicated for myself. To begin all I had to do was to write down a set of
questions relevant to my practice... Simples!!
- Is being a Performer a respected profession?
Who by and if not why?
- Degree or Diploma- Most Colleges now offer
both, but does it make a difference in this industry?
- How to survive the resting period post drama school. Create some sort of helpful
guide, possible book for others.
Well there are a few
aspects to my practice that I find interesting. Will see where they lead me!!
