TEACHERS SAY: “We thoroughly enjoyed [this course, it] was clear and easily understood by my kiddos! They are loving this. The LED lesson was great! I had new-to-our-tech class this semester do this first - they weren’t as familiar with the board as the others - and they got it on the first read thru! Test was clear and easy for them to understand.” Drama Teacher and Students, Indiana "Although I have been led through this process before, this was so much more clear. “Daisy-chaining” this process to recorded subs was a breeze afterwards!" Theatre, Music and Dance Teacher, Arts Dept. Head, New Hampshire |

So many theatre teachers tell me that they understand, and can teach, almost all aspects of tech theatre, but that they are in the dark (haha) about stage lighting. So I decided to create these mini self-paced tutorials specifically to help theatre teachers teach these topics to their students.
Enjoy! |
HOW DOES IT WORK?
CONVENIENT
Each short mini self-paced tutorial looks at one specific skill at a time, so it’s not an overwhelming time commitment. Also, each course is not based on mastery of the prior course, so you can do them in any order or combination. And then you can use them to teach to your students time and time again.
EASY FORMAT
Your tutorial will be sent to you as a pdf for you to download - and keep for repeat use!
SELF-PACED
No pressure to complete any tutorial in any specified time frame. You can complete your tutorial any time that is convenient to you. There is no rush - and no repercussions!
STANDARD ONLINE FORMAT
The tutorials are entirely provided to you online, and no specialized computer knowledge is needed.
SHORT MANAGEABLE LESSONS
Each lesson is made up of:
Clear explanations and concepts
A Tricks Tips Terms sheet, if applicable.
A practical application.
Assessment - lets you know how well you did - and you can use it with your students, to make sure they were really paying attention!
(With safety assessments, don't pass students unless they score 100%!)
SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS
LITT tutorials are not copyrighted - that would defeat the purpose! Now you own lesson plans that you can use year after year with your own students.

RCD courses cover many aspects of stage lighting design and operations, of which safety is a part. Safety tests within RCD courses are based on CTE standards. RCD is not a safety consultant. These courses are intended to supplement, not supersede, industry safety training. RCD is not an accredited certifying organization, but teachers will find that the courses are age appropriate and industry relevant, and that a Certificate of Completion for your students endorses their knowledge and abilities.
