This assignment is designed to convey performance is a method of research. There are multiple components to this assignment.

I. Perform a Performance Task. Walkin’ someone else’s path. Choose a student on campus, someone you don’t know, someone you imagine is different from you. Follow their routine for a
period of a day for a few days. Map their movements on campus( University Of California, Los Angeles. “UCLA”).
You can bullshit one guy, doing something in the campus such as having lunch alone, or watching sports game in Cafe, reading on the grass,etc. Something like that. You can boast them up, but don’t say them too over. But need to say he or she doing things in UCLA. I ordered 5 pages, you can use one page for mapping his movement.

II. Record/document your performance task for submission and evaluation.
III. Write a critical reflection about the task. This essay should state clearly how you designed your performance task, what your research questions were going into the task. In your critical reflection essay, you must make explicit and direct connections with specific course materials. And finally, your essay must convey your critical observations about the task.

Hints:
My class explores Asian American Theater will introduce students to (1) Asian American theater and performance texts; (2) the history of this emergent genre; (3) theoretical frameworks informing the analyses of these works; and (4) methods and practices employed in Asian American theater making and by Asian American theater artists. Students will learn about employing methods of theater and performance to engage with larger questions/topics including: the politics of representation, labor, immigration, racialization, and embodiment. Conversely, students will also engage with social and political issues as they bear upon the practice of theater and performance.
