After looking back at previous task 2d and thinking more about my practice i have developed the following questions to help lead to my line of inquiry:
Is the importance of safe guarding children affecting the 'hands on' approach of teaching dance?
How important is business within the dance world?
How important is it to understand both the mental and physical benefits of dance?
Has the stigma attached to dance changed due to how it is now portrayed in the media?
I have spoken with peers and employers regarding these questions and have asked for their opinions and views on these subjects. I look forward to blogging these once i have had feedback. I hope to receive comments from those on the course who work within the same field and with similar questions/ideas in order to hear other thoughts and with a view to making a start on a SIG (task 4b).
Hi Leanne I would be interested in joining your SIG and wondered if you might join mine. I am a dance teacher and am interested in doing my enquiry on dance teaching and autism. Do you have any experience of teaching autistic children to dance?
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn thanks for the comment i would love to join your SIG. I am interested in your area of enquiry but i'm also looking into the safeguarding of children and how this affects dance teaching - i imagne this would be a big issue when working with autistic children too. How are you forming your SIG? xx
