By the end of this course, students will:
B3.1 identify and describe opportunities for continued engagement in dance as a performer, producer, educator, or audience member (e.g., identify opportunities for participation in commu- nity productions)
Teacher prompt: “Do you watch dance routines on the Internet? Have you ever posted your own dance routine on the Internet? What other ways can you think of to view or participate
in live or broadcast dance activities, now or in the future?”
B3.2 identify and document transferable work- place skills they have acquired through their dance studies, and possible workplace applica- tions of those skills (e.g., compile a record of the skills developed during task planning, decision making, problem solving, and information gathering for dance activities)
Teacher prompts: “What did you learn about problem solving while creating choreography in a small group?” “Could the verbal skills you developed while giving feedback to your peers be useful in a professional environment? In what kinds of situations?” “How would maintaining a portfolio of your learning in dance help you in developing a résumé or describing your skills and experience to a prospective employer?”
