Students will also learn how to use and practice dialogue, and work towards a performance at the end of the semester. During the first half, the students will learn about blocking movements, and producing and performing their own work, such as readings, audios, and a quiz from one of the books they will read will also be given.

A Puzzle for Logan & University Murders by Richard MacAndrew will be part of the material. University Murders will be used for the performance-based exam, and the quiz will be taken from A Puzzle for Logan, as well as being used in class for readings, role-play, and character practice. The two books are connected and focus on the main character inspector Logan, a strong female role who solves murders and other criminal offenses.
