DESCRIPTION: Following upon the Theology and Arts Capstone course, this cohort will meet during the development of the students' summative master's projects. The master's project is an integrative and culminating portion of the MA-WTA, MA-WMM, and MAT-TA degree programs. It provides students the opportunity to carefully and reflectively integrate their course work with their particular areas of artistic, ministerial, and/or cultural interest.

SIGNIFICANCE FOR LIFE AND MINISTRY: Whether students are preparing to be theologically trained artists, cultural critics, or worship artists, their work will depend upon their ability to integrate theology and practice. This course will provide the cohort support for the discussion and development of student master's projects.

LEARNING OUTCOMES: Students who pass this course will have demonstrated that they

• recognize theological themes and issues relating to the production of artistic and/or liturgical projects;

• can think critically and theologically in the production of their own creative projects;

• can begin and plan for the completion of their master's project.

1. Class attendance and participation in discussion (25%)

2. Success in student presentations (25%)

   (Note: students are allowed two quarters in which to finish the master's project. Those not completing the project in the first quarter will receive the grade Hold, with the final grade assigned after the second quarter.)
