Question 1第 1 题
On the subject's organising 'continuum of practice', a community choir that meets weekly for social participation and a clinical music therapy session for a hospital patient differ mainly in that:在本课程的核心「实践连续体(continuum of practice)」框架下,一个每周聚会、以社交参与为目的的社区合唱团,与一次面向住院病人的临床音乐治疗,主要区别在于:
  1. They sit at different points on the continuum, so their aims and methods differ (wellbeing/participation vs. clinical/therapeutic), not the art form itself
  2. Only the clinical session counts as a creative art form; the choir does not
  3. The choir uses theory while the clinical session does not
  4. They are identical because both involve music
  1. 两者位于连续体上的不同位置,因此目标与方法不同(幸福感/参与 vs. 临床/治疗),而非艺术形式本身不同
  2. 只有临床治疗才算创意艺术形式,合唱团不算
  3. 合唱团使用理论,临床治疗不使用
  4. 两者完全相同,因为都涉及音乐
Show answer查看答案
Answer: A. They sit at different points on the continuum, so their aims and methods differ (wellbeing/participation vs. clinical/therapeutic), not the art form itselfThe continuum is the subject's main framing: arts engagement runs from community wellbeing / participatory arts through to clinical creative arts therapy, and where a practice sits shapes its aims and methods — not whether it 'counts' as art.
答案:A. 两者位于连续体上的不同位置,因此目标与方法不同(幸福感/参与 vs. 临床/治疗),而非艺术形式本身不同连续体是本课程的主框架:艺术参与从社区幸福感/参与式艺术一直延伸到临床创意艺术治疗,某一实践在连续体上的位置决定其目标与方法,而非它「算不算」艺术。
Question 2第 2 题
Essay 2 asks you to take a provided case study, identify the theoretical approach in use, and critique its relevance. The skill this most directly assesses is your ability to:Essay 2 要求你针对给定案例(case study)指出其所用的理论取向并评析其适切性。它最直接考查的能力是:
  1. Name a theoretical approach common to a context and judge how well it justifies the way of working in that specific case
  2. Memorise the full reference list of the subject
  3. Invent a brand-new therapy model
  4. Describe your own personal art-making experience
  1. 指出某一情境中常见的理论取向,并判断它在该具体案例中对工作方式的论证是否成立
  2. 背下本课全部参考文献列表
  3. 发明一种全新的治疗模型
  4. 描述你个人的艺术创作体验
Show answer查看答案
Answer: A. Name a theoretical approach common to a context and judge how well it justifies the way of working in that specific caseThe subject treats a 'theoretical approach' as a named body of theory that justifies how/why a practice works; Essay 2 tests whether you can map theory onto a case and critically assess its fit, not recall or invention.
答案:A. 指出某一情境中常见的理论取向,并判断它在该具体案例中对工作方式的论证是否成立本课将「理论取向」界定为论证某种实践如何/为何有效的成体系理论;Essay 2 考查你能否将理论对应到案例并批判性评估其适切性,而非记忆或臆造。
Question 3第 3 题
Essay 3 (50%) asks you to analyse the unique affordances of ONE creative arts form across the health continuum. In this subject, an 'affordance' is best understood as:Essay 3(占 50%)要求你分析「某一」创意艺术形式在健康连续体中的独特可供性(affordances)。本课中「可供性(affordance)」最恰当的理解是:
  1. What that art form uniquely enables or makes possible for a participant, distinct from and shared with the other forms
  2. The cost of running an arts programme
  3. How many people attend an arts session
  4. A synonym for 'final exam'
  1. 某一艺术形式为参与者独特促成或使其成为可能的东西,既有其独特之处也有与其他形式的共通之处
  2. 运行一个艺术项目的成本
  3. 参加一次艺术活动的人数
  4. 「期末考」的同义词
Show answer查看答案
Answer: A. What that art form uniquely enables or makes possible for a participant, distinct from and shared with the other formsThe subject highlights distinctions AND similarities between drama, dance, music and visual art with reference to the continuum; the 50% essay rewards a precise account of what a single form uniquely affords participants.
答案:A. 某一艺术形式为参与者独特促成或使其成为可能的东西,既有其独特之处也有与其他形式的共通之处本课以连续体为参照凸显戏剧、舞蹈、音乐与视觉艺术之间的异同;占 50% 的 essay 看重你对单一艺术形式为参与者独特促成之物的精确论述。
