4. Module 3 Assessment will be in 3 main parts
Part 1: The Critical Review
It is primarily written but can contain visual or audio visual elements
showing the process of investigating a topic (practitioner research) with
analysis that has implications or impact for your practice (any outcomes?).
Part 2: The Professional Artefact
a product or a work in progress that is created - it can be a document, an
event, or an activity (be creative if it is for creative professionals?) - it can
be something that informs others in your community of practice or
workplace - the artefact should emerge from the inquiry
Part 3: The Oral Presentation an in person/ audio-visual
demonstration that shows that you have progressed in your ability to show
knowledge and understanding that is based on your ‘inquiry’
*ALSO you have your blogs, peer conversations in special interest
groups and journal extracts – ADD THESE TO YOUR WORK
5. Completing your Critical Review
Critical Review - 4 main sections
3. Analysis and Findings – already started
4. Critical Reflection – the last section – what did you learn
Bibliography – this shows the expertise you used to
‘theorise’ your work – arts based research (practitioners
work e.g. performance, visual) not in word count
Appendices – supporting material - not in word count
6. Completing your Portfolio
This work is representing what you have done for the
entire professional inquiry – add other activities – e.g.
going to performances you have been a art of or have
seen, workshops, training. The idea is that you have done
something during the inquiry that you can talk about as
outcomes coming from your practice and/or workplace.
7. Data – findings from
your inquiry (evidence)
Your experience
–relating your
insider-researcher
understanding
Literature – expertise from others and
from a collected body of knowledge in
your field and beyond
Remember the analysis as a triangle
(Adesola with Paula added)

18. • Rehearse what you want to say before the day and illustrate what
you have done for your inquiry in your presentation – what is
important to communicate? + be prepared for questions
• Don’t overload slides (ppt or prezi if you use these) with text – they
are just talking points (note Paula has Pages but the uni does not – so
also format as a powerpoint)
• A rule of thumb is 1 minute per slide – so no more than 15 slides (?)
• You can show a sample of your artefact – if it is a powerpoint –
these are 2 distinct pieces for assessment
• You are presenting to peers and tutors – there is an element of
formality – but you might also introduce informal elements - we
have had people sing songs, do acting auditions and give the
audience cookies…
Oral Presentation
