College of Fine Arts & Communication Assessment Council Jeffrey Ward, chair/SOM Lisa Beth Robinson, SOAD Jin-Ae Kang, SOC Patch Clark, SOTD Natalie Stewart, SOTD Patti Weeks, SOTD Musical Theater Audition “Demo Reel” THEA 4095 – Musical Theatre Performance Techniques 4 Outcome: Students will select appropriate audition materials to build a professional auditions book, audition packages, professional head shot/resume and video demo reel. Means of Assessment: Students will be evaluated via the selection and adaptation of appropriate materials through numerous “simulated” auditions before an audience of theatre faculty, BFA program peers and guests; and on the effectiveness of the digital video demo reel. Watch this demo reel and complete the rubric below: Broadcast Journalism COMM 4293 – Editing and Producing the News Outcome: Students produce broadcast journalism shows. Means of Assessment: Students’ broadcast journalism shows are evaluated by School of Communications faculty, using a faculty-designed rubric. Watch this show and complete the rubric below: Theater Voice Pretest-Posttest Outcome: Improve the students' in the elimination of vocal fry, nasality, and glottal attacks. Means of Assessment: Recording students' voices at the beginning and the end of the semester, and listening to and assessing the improvement in the elimination of vocal fry, nasality, and glottal attacks. Listen to the before and after and complete the rubric below: Drawing ART 1020 – Drawing Outcome: Candidates will demonstrate their understanding of basic elements and principles in art and design before advancing to survey-level studio courses. Means of Assessment: Drawing I, ART 1020, students will be administered a pre and post drawing to evaluate their observation skill, composition, quality of mark and spatial understanding. Evaluate the two drawings with the rubric below: Dance Duet Outcome: Students will execute proper technical skills in performance through physical aptitude and an engaging performance quality. Means of Assessment: Students' dancing will be assessed throughout the performance by demonstration of body alignment and control with energy, projection, spatial awareness, musicality and expression. Watch this performance and complete the rubric below: Vocal Solo Music Performance Outcome: Students demonstrate independent musicianship through performance and analysis. Means of Assessment: All students who are assessed in the end-of-semester performance juries are evaluated by an applied music faculty panel, using a discipline-based, School of Music approved, jury sheet. Watch this performance and complete the rubric below: Category Below Proficient 0-1 Proficient 1 - 2 Above Proficient 9 - 10 Research of specific and effective audition materials (songs, song cuts and monologue cuts). Did not effectively complete required research necessary Completed the minimum amount of research required Completed beyond the minimum research requirement Development of live audition materials: song cuts of various timed lengths and two strong monologues Did not develop live audition materials effectively Developed live audition materials for basic effective impact Developed live audition materials with superior impact and effectiveness Demonstrated effective live audition performance skills Did not demonstrate effective live audition performance skills Demonstrated live audition performance skills at minimum proficiency expectation Demonstrated live audition performance skills at above proficient level Prepared a digital media performance demo reel Did not successfully complete a digital media performance demo reel Completed a digital media performance demo reel with minimum effectiveness Completed a digital media performance demo reel with outstanding effectiveness Vocal QualitySevereModerateNone Vocal Fry Nasality Glottal Attack Category4321 Tone Quality Tone is consistently focused, clear, and centered throughout the range of the voice. Tone is focused, clear and centered throughout the normal singing range. Extremes in range sometimes cause tone to be less controlled. Tone quality typically does not detract from the performance. Tone is often focused, clear and centered, but sometimes the tone is uncontrolled in the normal singing range. Extremes in range are usually uncontrolled. Occasionally the tone quality detracts from overall performance. The tone is often not focused, clear or centered regardless of the range, significantly detracting from the overall performance. Pitch Virtually no errors. Pitch is very accurate. An occasional isolated error, but most of the time pitch is accurate and secure. Some accurate pitches, but there are frequent and/or repeated errors. Very few accurate or secure pitches. Rhythm The beat is secure and the rhythms are accurate. The beat is secure and the rhythms are mostly accurate. There are a few duration errors, but these do not detract from the overall performance. The beat is somewhat erratic. Some rhythms are accurate. Frequent or repeated duration errors. Rhythm problems occasionally detract from the overall performance. The beat is usually erratic and rhythms are seldom accurate detracting significantly from the overall performance. Phrasing Phrasing is always consistent and sensitive to the style of music being sung. Phrasing is usually consistent and sensitive to the style of music being sung.

Technique Area Excellent GoodAdequateNeeds Improvement Weak Skill The dancers demonstrate a clear sense of alignment, center control, flexibility and strength. They have a strong sense of musicality. The dancers demonstrate awareness of alignment, center control, flexibility, strength and musicality. The dancers demonstrate an adequate understand- ing of alignment, center control, but lack flexibility, strength and/or musicality. The dancers are under- developed in alignment, center control, flexibility, strength and/or musicality. Further work is needed. The dancers lack an under- standing of alignment and center control. They lack flexibil- ity, strength and/or musica- lity. Presentation The dancers demonstrate a high level of concentratio n, energy, confidence and ensemble awareness. The dancers demonstrate a good level of concentratio n, energy, confidence and ensemble awareness. The dancers demonstrate an adequate level of concentratio n, energy, confidence and ensemble awareness. The dancers demonstrate a low level of concentration, energy confidence, and ensemble awareness. The dancers demon- strate a poor level of concen- tration, energy, confi- dence and ensemble aware- ness.
