DANC 296 - Dance Pedagogy; teaching methodologies for a diverse culture Semester Offered: Fall 0.5 unit(s) Dance Pedagogy is designed to provide students with the information and ability to integrate technical and conceptual content along with pedagogical content in dance. Students gain an understanding of how areas of concentration within dance teaching and learning are organized, represented, and adapted to the diverse interests and abilities of learners, and presented for instruction. This course involves a theoretical/lecture and practicum structure. We research and share methods of learning and teaching in the studio, investigate and experience various styles of dance, and target different age groups. Required readings present and broaden perspectives on Dance Education; underscoring the essential understanding of anatomical components, illuminating how dance relates to social class, culture and race, and presenting the practical skills of creating a teaching philosophy, planning a syllabus, presenting educational material, making corrections with anatomical acuity, integrating dance accompaniment, and class organization and planning. Leslie Sachs.
