Ah - serendipity... 
 
On Thur/Fri last week, Plymouth Uni hosted a very useful Palatine workshop on 'Assessing Risk' - which was to do with Risk Assessment, not grading. One outcome might well be the collation of different practices and proformas.

Subject: Student Risk Assessments: An enquiry about practices across the sector

While colleagues are exploring hanging down from falling buildings, would tutors of practical teaching/assessment as well as technical colleagues from Scudd institutions take a moment to respond to the enquiry below from our Production Manager:

________________________________

At the moment we have at Kent a large number of practical modules which result in practical / performance-based assessments. In line with Health and Safety  regulations each module has a generic risk assessment within the individual module handbook. 
However each group of students are required to risk assess their work and then submit this document to the technician in charge of the specific module . It is then checked , logged and signed off. This becomes a major process especially when working with devised projects - which spans the majority of the programme. Each rehearsal may result in a different R/A.
We are trying to streamline this process so that it doesn't take such a huge proportion of time for the technical team,staff and students and were wondering how other University Drama Depts deal with this. 
 
I would be grateful if you could email me regarding your system.

 

Thank you

 

All the Best
