Dartington College of Arts was a specialist institution near Totnes in Devon, southwest England, that focused on a performative and multi-disciplinary approach to the arts. It offered tertiary-level courses in postdramatic theatre, music, choreography, visual performance and performance writing and its teaching staff were all active arts practitioners. The college held an international reputation for excellence and aimed to promote a critical self-awareness in contemporary arts practice. The college was founded in 1961 as a consequence of the original Dartington Hall experiment in rural regeneration. Academic degrees were validated in partnership with the University of Plymouth. Dartington College of Arts became part of University College Falmouth on 6 April 2008 and, in 2010, relocated to Falmouth, Cornwall. == Mission == According to the Dartington website, the college's mission is to "...be a radical, innovative Higher Education learning community for contemporary arts practices in performance: * building upon, sustaining and developing the distinctive Dartington legacy as a high-quality specialist learning community in the creative arts, at the leading edge of innovation in practice-based teaching, research, and professional development in contemporary arts practices in performance. * providing life-enhancing, or transformational experience in creative practice for all those capable of benefiting from the Dartington experience, and adding value to the social, cultural and economic life of our region. * nurturing and sustaining distinctive and dependable partnership, through strategic alliances and collaborative initiatives at regional, national and international levels, for the development of our mission within the rapidly changing context of a global framework for higher education in contemporary arts practice" One thing that the college is notable for is an interdisciplinary approach to arts practice and to a certain extent students from different courses do not work in isolation from each other. For example, the writing students may write scripts which the theatre students then perform etc. As well as this, the college is very keen on international collaboration and in the 3rd year all students go on the Socrates Erasmus scheme to various institutions across the globe with similarly prestigious institutions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dartington College of Arts」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
