This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop and refine movement skills required in a range of live performance contexts. At this level, performers are constantly refining their technique and expression to produce performances that convey the mood and style of music through movement routines. This unit applies to performers who are consolidating their career where high level movement skills are required. They could be involved in dance, musical theatre and circus performances. They would usually be performing as members of an ensemble, though some solo work could be expected. While supervision and guidance are provided in practice sessions and rehearsals, performers are expected to display a high level of motivation and responsibility for themselves and others during live performances. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Students will attend on campus classes as well as engage in learning activities through ECU's LMS

Evidence of the ability to: - perform a range of movement routines that demonstrate: - understanding of human movement principles and their application in performance - well-developed movement techniques appropriate to specific performance contexts - incorporate rhythmic structures and musicality into movement routines - cooperate with others in a learning and performance environment. Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.
To complete the unit requirements the individual must: - explain how the following principles relate to physical movement techniques: - relationship with gravity - spatial awareness - successional movement - use of breath - folding - extending - rotating - shifting weight - explain how the following apply in the context of safe movement practice and injury prevention: - articulation of the spine - engagement of the feet - bases of support, including feet, legs, hands, arms and torso - range of motion of the joints - differentiation of the legs and pelvis - healthy nutrition and diet - explain and demonstrate how the musical elements of time signatures, beat, tempo and syncopation apply to movement techniques associated with chosen performance genre - describe key features of the following movement philosophies: - Alexander technique - Bartenieff fundamentals - Feldenkrais method - Ideokinesis - Pilates - yoga - Thera-Band.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in a performance environment. The assessment environment must include access to appropriate performance areas or spaces. Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Students please note: The marks and grades received by students on assessments may be subject to further moderation. All marks and grades are to be considered provisional until endorsed by the relevant School Progression Panel.
For the purposes of considering a request for Reasonable Adjustments under the Disability Standards for Education (Commonwealth 2005), inherent requirements for this subject are articulated in the Unit Description, Learning Outcomes and Assessment Requirements of this entry. The University is dedicated to provide support to those with special requirements. Further details on the support for students with disabilities or medical conditions can be found at the Access and Inclusion website.
Integrity is a core value at Edith Cowan University, and it is expected that ECU students complete their assessment tasks honestly and with acknowledgement of other people's work. This means that assessment tasks must be completed individually (unless it is an authorised group assessment task) and any sources used must be referenced.
Breaches of academic integrity can include:
Copying the words, ideas or creative works of other people, without referencing in accordance with stated University requirements. Students need to seek approval from the Unit Coordinator within the first week of study if they intend to use some of their previous work in an assessment task (self-plagiarism).
Working with other students and submitting the same or substantially similar work or portions of work when an individual submission was required. This includes students knowingly providing others with copies of their own work to use in the same or similar assessment task(s).
Organising a friend, a family member, another student or an external person or organisation (e.g. through an online website) to complete or substantially edit or refine part or all of an assessment task(s) on their behalf.
Using or having access to unauthorised materials in an exam or test.
Serious outcomes may be imposed if a student is found to have committed one of these breaches, up to and including expulsion from the University for repeated or serious acts.
ECU's policies and more information about academic integrity can be found on the student academic integrity website.
All commencing ECU students are required to complete the Academic Integrity Module.
In some circumstances, Students may apply to their Unit Coordinator to extend the due date of their Assessment Task(s) in accordance with ECU's Assessment, Examination and Moderation Procedures - for more information visit https://askus2.ecu.edu.au/s/article/000001386.
Students may apply for Special Consideration in respect of a final unit grade, where their achievement was affected by Exceptional Circumstances as set out in the Assessment, Examination and Moderation Procedures - for more information visit https://askus2.ecu.edu.au/s/article/000003318.
