Online CourseArts Integration + CollaborationThis course focuses on integrating the arts across the curriculum to drive learning in and through the arts. It also develops the collaboration skills of teaching artists to co-plan and co-teach with teachers/arts specialists in prek-12 classrooms and community sites. In collaboration with the Philadelphia Arts in Education Partnership (PAEP), guest speakers (primarily PAEP rostered Artists-in-Residence) are featured as they present methods to incorporate and apply arts across the curriculum. Models of collaborative work developed between both classroom instructors and professional artists in visual and performing arts are studied in relation to academic standards and effective student learning projects. Teaching artists build on skills acquired in Methods and Teaching Practicum.

WritingtheShortFilmJust as poems differ from novels, short films differ from feature films. Shorts are an art form in their own right. Shorts allow filmmakers an opportunity to approach character and story in a way that often does not work in feature films. This course is an examination of screenwriting as it applies to short films — a crash course in understanding the process of making an effective piece that both exploits the uniqueness of the form and avoids the pitfalls that many filmmakers encounter.

THIRD-PARTYBILLING+SPONSOREDSTUDENTS

Third-party billing is when a company or government/outside agency has established special billing arrangements to cover tuition and/or fees for students that it sponsors. The University must receive an authorization from the sponsoring agency before third-party billing can be processed. All billing authorizations – which may be a letter, purchase order or voucher – must be on official agency letterhead and signed by an officer of the organization.

Payment by the sponsor must be made directly to the University; agreements where payments are sent to the student cannot be honored. All authorizations must include the term or dates that the authorization is in effect. Continuing Education cannot accommodate any restrictions or contingencies on the authorization. For instance, if the agency requires grade or transcript information before payment, the University cannot authorize third-party billing.

All sponsored students are required to complete a Tuition Repayment Agreement (promissory note) in order to be registered for the class and to initiate third-party billing. In the event of non-payment or partial payment by the third-party agency, the student will be charged for the unpaid amount. Third parties are invoiced after the class is confirmed to run. Payments must be made within 30 days of billing. If payment is not received within 30 days, the agency and the student will be notified, and the student will be billed for the unpaid amount as authorized on the Tuition Repayment Agreement. Any charges that are not paid by the sponsor are billed directly to the student.
