For the Cambridge IGCSE Drama syllabus (0411) students are required to devise a small group piece of drama (coursework component) that lasts no longer than 15 minutes (regardless of the group size - 2 - 7 persons). It is up to the teacher to provide appropriate sources of stimuli for the groups to respond to (and the stimuli can not be the same as the pre-release paper). I have created a booklet that will help them create their final devised piece, including a summary of the assessment criteria, a choice of three stimuli (a picture, a quote and song lyrics in this case, but you could change them according to your groups needs). Then there are notes on various dramatic devices, structure and form, what needs to be in their devised piece and performance advice. Hope this is useful! :-)
