Course Description
THE 2100 is a study of the theatre, its components, and its contributors, with an emphasis upon learning
to appreciate and evaluate live performance. The course introduces students to the art and profession of
theatre. This online course makes use of Powerpoint lectures, online discussions, videos, and theatre
websites to teach students about the basics of theatre, who’s involved in mounting a production, how
theatre can engage issues like diversity, and how theatres use internet sites like YouTube for advertising
and education. Students will read five plays, participate in online discussions, watch videos related to the
art and occupation of theatre, explore theatre websites, and create a final project that they will present
during finals week.
Goals
1. Students develop skills in written communication and expression, reading, critical thinking, and oral
expression.
2. Students understand the pluralistic nature of institutions, society, and culture in the United States and
across the world in order to become educated, productive, and principled citizens.
3. Students evaluate significant works of art in order to develop capacities for aesthetic and historical
response and judgment; interpretation and evaluation; critical listening, reading, seeing, thinking, and
writing; and experiencing the arts and reflecting on that experience.
Expected Learning Outcomes
1. Students develop abilities to analyze, appreciate, and interpret significant works of art through the
reading of plays, online discussion, and assignments that further engage with the practice of theatre.
2. Students develop abilities to be an informed observer or active participant in a discipline within the
visual, spatial, and performing arts through the attendance at performances and accompanying
preparation and reflective/critical assignments.
