DANC 3366 - Dance Pedagogy


Credits: 3

Focuses on the theory and practice of teaching methodologies in multiple dance genres. Examines pedagogical theories, standards, and goals for teaching dance, and gives students hands-on experience in teaching modern/contemporary, ballet, and/or jazz-based technique classes. Elements of the course include planning a syllabus, presenting educational material, making corrections, integrating dance accompaniment, organizing a term, and grading. Students may focus on one style of dance, or they may teach in all three modalities investigated during the term. They begin the practical application of course materials by teaching fellow classmates small portions of a technique class, and progress to teaching a full class to nonclassmates.
