Inquiry Aims and Objectives

After reviewing my module feedback from last term I realised I needed to focus my inquiry further and re think my inquiry title. In order for me to establish what I wanted to gain from this inquiry and allow readers to understand this I decided to write a list of my aims and objectives:

Title:

'How can Musical Theatre inclusion in mainstream education benefit a teachers and performers future career within the arts?' 

Aims:
  • Identify what teachers within the arts feel is important about inclusion of musical theatre in mainstream education.
  • Discover when teachers and performers in the arts were first introduced to musical theatre/ performing arts, and find out how important that was in influencing their future career.
  • Start a debate on what path teachers and performers feel produces the best type of teacher.
  • To investigate how I as an educator can allow my pupils to feel fully engaged in learning and challenged with their own capabilities.

Objectives:
  • To improve my understanding of how important the arts are within mainstream education from different professionals perspectives.
  • To aid aspiring teachers and performers on how a future teaching/performing career in the arts can be obtained/sustained successfully according to established professionals.
  • To improve my knowledge and approach as a teacher in order to maximise future career opportunities and business potential to run my own performing arts institute.
Any thoughts on this would be greatly recevied.

  1. As we discussed on the phone the aims and objectives are very ambitious and I look forward to a more focussed set of aims and objectives on your blog - it's good to reflect, shape and hone the inquiry in order to make it a tighter topic. As it stands, there is a lot going on in the above - from the bridge from performing to teaching and whether there is a route back and whether one can help the other as well as the nitty gritty about teaching students effectively. Best regards ...
