3 WAYS OF COMMUNICATING YOUR MAAP JOURNEY
At the final stages of the MAAP process you are required to present in various ways: a written essay, an artefact and an oral presentation. Basically you know you're probably not going to be very good in at least one of them (!), or maybe you are amazing anyway in which case congratulations in advance!
I've got to say that so far this is the bit that I've loved the most. Getting creative in different mediums and exploring ways in which I can resume my 18th month journey in a 3-minute piece is the kind of challenge that I like to accept.
At the start of this course I struggled so much to learn how to write academically and organize all of my thoughts in a page within a given structure. Around half-way I was excited to be able to make links between what I was reading and my practice. At this stage when I look back it actually feels like I could write another two essays on all the themes I unpicked and side reflections around the conversations I had.
My chosen artefact is movement on film with text. I chose to focus on the ultimate conclusion of my journey and create movement and text simply around that. Sometimes less is more, they say. I'm excited and in the editing stage. I found yet another skill I absolutely love to do.
The oral presentation...yeah...I'm used to speaking publicly but not doing academic presentations, so I'm thinking of ways in which I can present comfortably, possibly with movement...and if it was face to face... I would probably get food in...and drummers...you know, getting all those learning styles in...yeah it would probably turn into a party...so I might just stick to a slideshow.
