A very common delusion under which most Theatre students suffer is the idea that because their craft is primarily oral and/or visual that they will not need to worry about developing their writing skills. This is a fallacy. Writing is fundamental in articulating play reviews, analysis and opinons concerning written or visual works, journal articles, theatre history, resumes, grants and proposals. In fact, writing is probably the most important form of communication in the theatre because, without it, there is generally no play to perform. In that plays begin life as written compositions, writing is arguably a very important, in face primary, form of communication in the theatre

For the triangulation to validate the data, a list of the question was conveyed to the students. The implementation of these two tasks and the students’ answer for the questionnaire show that this research has been helpful in improving their script writing skills, particularly on the grammar and organization of how a script should be written.

"Although different requirements based on individual differences in learning can cause some predicaments in distance education, some of these problems can be solved as a result of the opportunities offered by recent technological developments. It is accepted that every medium used in education has different communication and interactivity potential. Hence it is important to choose the most efficient and effective medium to offer better educational opportunities. Nowadays different mediums can be intermingled according to program goals. In fact, the usages of multimedia materials have become widespread. However in the background of the effective use of these materials, we can easily argue that the design process and well-prepared educational scripts are very crucial. When the usage of multimedia materials for distance education in Turkey is examined, it can be seen that one the most lasting and widespread applications are put into practice at Anadolu University (AU) Open Education Faculty. As such, AU is specialized in designing multimedia materials. The writers and editors of related course books, being experts in the field, are involved in the script writing process in Open Education Faculty. In this study, which aims to explore the script writing process for multimedia materials in AU Open Education Faculty, can help to analyze the above- mentioned process in detail. In this way, it would be possible to determine the shortcomings and hopefully, improve the script writing process of multimedia materials which would contribute to its refinements."

It is an unusual step to publish a collection of unproduced scripts. Rarely, if ever, are scripts treated as texts in their own right and seen as deserving of publication, irrespective of any staging or production. This perceived unpublishable status of unproduced scripts fosters a sense that such scripts are not a suitable focus of scholarly discussion. They are dismissed as somehow amateur or unworthy; this despite the fact that many of the most successful scriptwriters have written at least one script, usually many more, that never 'made it' to stage or screen. Are these works somehow less worthy of critical discussion, or weaker examples of the writer's creative and research processes, than their produced works? I would argue that they are not.
