Common misconception
Once we've performed, then we've finished and don't need to carry on reflecting on our work.
Watching a performance back, and/or reflecting on our performance is useful because it gives us an opportunity to realise and appreciate the various skills we've been learning, using and building on. We can also see what we'd do better next tiime.
Equipment
Class iPad/ tablet/ camera for filming. PA/ speakers that are loud enough to play the backing tracks.
