This will be achieved through writing journal reports on the experiential learning process, and the completing of a literary work / creative cultural essay on an approved topic at the end of the course. Through this experiential learning course, students can demonstrate analysis of literature and scripts that attends to its aesthetic, intellectual, social, historical, institutional, and exhibition-reception aspects. Students acquire skills to creatively translate the knowledge acquired and digested in the learning activities into written and oral presentation that includes journal reports and a piece of literature / script.
