Taught in English. This course introduces students to fundamental theories and current approaches to movement pedagogy, as shaped in the field of dance education. Through theoretical inquiry and experiential workshops, and drawing examples from educational systems, such as the UK or USA, where dance has been systematically delivered in the curriculum, we examine models of dance pedagogy and the way with which these respond and contribute to different developmental stages and in different phases of education. The module also explores social / artistic movements, such as “community dance” and the evolution of applied dance practices. Students will have the opportunity to experiment and analyse pedagogical approaches to applied practices in different community contexts, through analyses of examples of projects / programmes / artists and companies, and through experimentation with the practices they employ.
