You will be expected to participate in a group discussion in the Week 5 tutorial. The discussion will be based on a
specific case-study of your own choosing related to Australian cultural policy. When selecting a case-study, you must
run your topic past your lecturer for approval. You cannot use either of the explicit Federal cultural policies. Each
student will be given the opportunity to share their chosen case study and lead class discussion, and this may be
completed individually or in pairs.

This exercise requires you to stimulate and manage class discussion, so it is not simply about giving a summary of your
reading, it is about leading a discussion. The task is similar to running a meeting, in which you have a clear agenda and
need to make sure everyone takes part. Although this discussion will be held in Week 5, every student will be expected
to participate in and make a contribution to the discussions each week, as part of the mark for this assessment is
allocated on the strength of overall tutorial participation throughout the unit.

Assessment 2: Written Assignment (40%) – 2,000 words
Description
Write a 2,000-word report on a topic of your choosing related to cultural policy. You must seek and receive approval
from your lecturer for your chosen topic before proceeding with further research. You may examine a cultural policy from
outside of Australia or a business/organisation affected by cultural policy.
You must not use either of the explicit Australian Federal cultural policies or the policy you examined in Assessment 1.
This is a formal piece of writing and must be written in appropriate academic style. You must demonstrate a familiarity
with the critical perspectives covered on the course (lectures and readings) and an ability to apply them. The purpose of
this assessment task is to help develop your written skills, independent research skills, and critical analysis and
independent thinking capabilities.
Choose one of the following research areas:
1. With specific reference to one particular city, area or country, discuss how cultural policy is approached,
initiated and implemented. Examine the effect that this policy strategy has on cultural practice, production,
and/or promotion. Analyse theories on the role of the government in the arts and culture.
2. Focus on a particular aspect of cultural policy (perhaps concerning tourism, funding or business) and examine
the initiation, objectives, and operation of that policy. Discuss the effects and implications of your selected
policy.
3. Select one institution or small music enterprise (studio, venue, band, etc.) and examine the role that music
policy has played in its development. Discuss the operation and implications of music policy at a grass roots
level with reference to the example you have chosen.
Your report must be referenced correctly in accordance with the AIM Academic Style Guide.
