1. Students attend and watch two professional theater performances (at municipal or state theaters). To prove their attendance, they take photos at the venue and fill out all fields on the form provided by the instructor regarding these performances. They also attach the photos they took to the relevant section of the form. Students print out this form on the last class day before the midterm exam and submit it to the instructor. This assignment counts as the student’s midterm grade and contributes 25% to the final grade.

2. During weeks 12, 13, and 14, students present a mini creative-educational drama project or a mini performance, prepared individually or in groups of up to five people led by a student. These presentations must be between a minimum of 4 minutes and a maximum of 7 minutes. When grading this work, students are evaluated based on the following criteria: the ability to convey the message of the piece—specifically, the student’s ability to communicate the message during the presentation (50 points), diction (10 points), stage presence (20 points), and use of gestures and facial expressions (20 points). These scores constitute the student’s final grade and account for 50% of the overall evaluation.

3. In this course, class attendance is very important, and 15% of the final grade is based on the student’s actual attendance. (Students with 90–100% attendance receive 100 points; those with 80–90% receive 80 points; and those with 70–80% receive 70 points. Attendance rates below these thresholds are evaluated as 0 (zero).

4. In the evaluation section, the 10% assigned to “assignments” is based on the student’s performance and contribution in each class.
