The student designs and initiates a project, usually complementing their central research focus through performance, choreography, secondment, teaching dance or theoretical and/or applied research.  The unit prepares the student for a more substantial special project in AWD2207, as a consequence more emphasis is given to the research elements of the project than the outcomes.  The unit encourages the student to develop a time line and the components necessary to achieve its completion and to elaborate on the possible outcomes.  The student also evaluates the potential for the project to be sustained and developed in AWD2207.  The project is supervised by an appropriate staff member.
