Content
Composition for Film and Theatre regularly invites guest teachers to discuss a wide range of subjects.
Some examples of guest teacher classes hosted separately throughout the study year are master classes, workshops, lab classes and clinics.
Attendance is compulsory at guest teacher classes.
Students partly design the guest classes themselves, deciding about the guests as a group and some topics should be there in any case, for instance some classes on career planning.
Mode(s) of instruction
Variable, but always including master classes, workshops, lab classes and clinics that, depending on the composition of the group, take place entirely on-campus, entirely online or in a combination of both, i.e., that there are attendees both physically in the classroom and virtually via a screen. Online attendees communicate by seeing, talking and listening to each other and the on-campus attendees equally. The teacher has access to a whiteboard, application sharing, desktop sharing and document sharing and can hand this privilege to any other participants.
Apart from the video conference a high quality stereo audio stream is open at the same time via source connect. That way students and instructor can listen to music from any source of the group and talk about it simultaneously.
All online lessons are recorded and though available for students later on.

Module summary
Group sessions taught by expert guest teachers. There are two groups: students of year one and two combined (with a cycle of two years handling different topics, the ones that are currently taught and some new ones can also be implemented, such as Improvisation, instant composing) and a group with students of years three and four combined. The Y3/4 group partly designs the guest classes themselves, deciding about the guests as a group (comparable with the collective program in the master) and some topics should be there in any case, for instance some classes on career planning.
