Participation and Community Engagement in Arts - FOAR300
This unit provides an opportunity for students to engage with the community through a variety of activities. Examples include individual and group activities with public-sector agencies, professional bodies, companies, industry partners and not-for-profit organisations. The unit promotes learning through participation with community partners as well as the development of graduate capabilities and professional skills. Students will be encouraged to apply theory learnt through their degree to real-world situations. Student learning will be facilitated through orientation and induction activities, scaffolding for skill and knowledge development and debriefing; supported throughout by rigorous academic assessment. This unit will have a particular emphasis on social inclusion and will focus on Indigenous issues, cross-cultural development, social justice, poverty reduction, human rights and gender equity.
