8 Contents of dance education How to teach How deep, much to teach How to learn

9 Students at dance classes Tradicionaly: Learn and rehearse dances In primary school everyone in circles or in lines Mostly folk dance is used In 11-12 grades don’t like dance Mostly don’t like folk dance In new way: Create dance themselves Work in groups A lot of noise, but everyone is busy Different tasks Interesting for everyone New forms of dance are appreciated

10 New paradigm of dance teacher Understanding needs of contemporary society More wide understanding of dance subject Efficient use of methods New way of evaluation Constant self reflection

11 Understanding needs of contemporary society Contradictory understanding of values of dance (dance is only for giffted, folk dance is most important) Contradictory understanding of values in dance (stylized folk dance, contemporary dance) New forms of dance (street dance, break dance, hip hop)

12 More wide understanding of dance subject Not only to teach dances Not only to rehearse dances Not only prepare for concerts and competitions Not only teach one style of dance Not only choose pop music

13 Planning dance education process Tradicionaly: I do what I have planned, and write what is needed theme “teaching waltz steps” aim – to teach waltz steps methods: showing, explaining Newly: I relate to the situation, I change and take a risk aim – to develop sence of rhythm themes “clock”, “rain”, “animals” methods: creative tasks in groups, presentations, discussions

14 Efficient use of methods Tradicionaly: showing explaining rehearsing Newly: research creation presenting reflection whatching discussions evaluation

15 New view in evaluation in arts education Paradigm of interpretation (V.Matonis, 2000) Overal artistic understanding and thinking by means of arts (creation) (M.J.Parsons, 1992) There is no the only one right decision, there is no good or bad (N.Goodman, 1976) Relativity: not what is arts, but when is arts? (N.Goodman, 1976)

16 New way of evaluation Tradicionaly: Evaluate what I see If it is done good It is as I showed Emphasize mistakes Newly: Discuss criterias Students evaluate themselves Students evaluate each other Talking and analysing Foresee changes

17 Constant self reflection I am not only implementer I teach not only what I’ve been taught I teach not only in a way how I was taught I accept all styles of learning I am interested in contemporary events in dance I am interested in contemporary education news I react to changes and events

18 Fears of dance teachers If I won’t prepare concerts I won’t get classes If I won’t participate in competitions they won’t appreciate my work Will I get dance classes this year Will it be the same classes to continue, or new ones

19 Problems There are no obligatory dance classes in schools Children don’t want to dance ?

20 Decisions - questions Is it so bad as it seems? What is good in our point of view? What will we achieve in this way? Are our goals the same? Will obligatory dance classes save the situation?

21 What to do? ?

22 DANCE!
