Description:
The evocative production needs to be a creative piece of work that clearly reflects the themes and lived experiences explored in the lectures, readings, tutorial presentations and tutorial discussions.
• The format taken is your choice and we suggest that you use a medium that you are good at or would like to try. Some suggestions include: – A poem – A song -A poster While the quality of the presentation of the evocative production is important, your tutor will not be marking you on the quality of artwork in terms of artistic skill but on evidence that care, time and effort has been taken and an understanding of the sociological concepts is shown. In addition to the evocative production submit a 750 word written reflection that supports the theory behind your evocative production and demonstrates your intention.
• Take ownership of your production: give the production a name or title that easily depicts the theoretical theme or experience.
• Describe the intention of your production ie what concepts or themes are you trying to portray, how you went about it. This may include: o Why you chose the population group/issue
o You may wish to provide some background to the population group/issue o What was the issue portrayed; be specific here o Why you chose the medium o Why you chose the layout o Why you chose particular colours
• Link your evocative production to the key sociological themes you wish to convey eg: o Institutionalisation o Stigma o Stereotyping o Prejudice o You will need references to support this Draw on information presented in lectures, readings, tutorials and any other relevant literature. o You may be able to link more than one lecture/reading/tutorial to your theme
• As this is a reflection it can be written in part in first person.
• This part of the assessment will need a reference list
