Module 3 - Start

-


I have had a little bit of a whirlwind of a start to module 3. 

It started of by me sending off my Teacher Training UCAS application. I got 2 interviews the following day after sending it! for the next week! which happened to be the same week we started back...

Juggling all the prep, lesson tasks and academic assessments that I had to do for that along with trying to get a start on module 3 interview questions and feedback form, my brain felt like mush! 

HOWEVER... I am happy to announce that come September I will be starting my teacher training on a school direct program, studying primary with SEN!!I am so happy I could burst. 

If anyone interested in teaching I found the get into teaching page very useful.

Now on to module 3

I plan to start to put my interview questions together the next few weeks and trial them to ensure that I can lead the participants within the interview, this allows me to have structure and ensure that we don't get off topic too much. Along with this I am going to continue with my desk based research. I want to focus more on dance with disability and special needs firstly, as this is an area that I felt needed more research on. 

I plan to look at scholars;
StopGap Dance Company ,
Amici Dance Theatre Company
Hilde Holger,
Wolfgang Stange

I hope to find TED talks and interviews from these scholars to add to my research. This I hope will open up other ideas and topics that I can continue to research into further.

Discussion group 17/02

Creativity and Data Sources.  Tonight's zoom call was an interesting discussion to a view from all modules and everyone's inside thoughts of where they are up to with understanding their practice. One of the first discussion points that came up was, areas of learning. It was nice to think back and to see how far I have come throughout studying this course.  When I first started this course I remember not understanding what my areas of learning was or how to even start unpicking them.  The key way I did this was looking at my transferable skills and where I can take my creativity and performing arts skills into other areas of work, which could and would broaden my practice in the future. Other comments that students made about this was, thinking about what your practice has taught you. Thinking of significant moments within your practice that has influenced you. This was an amazing one for me and I was even unaware of it happening. I possibly wouldn't of realised it either w

"Diagrams"

-
After a few weeks of trying to put together a solid idea of what I was going to do for my "diagram", after a short 1-1 with Helen today I finally feel like I have a set idea of what I want my outcome to be. I had three ideas in my head all very different, I had even started two of them. I was finding it really difficult to understand what was the "right" way to go about it. With the criteria being so wide and open, I felt a little out of depth with what was expected of us. I feel like the way I now look at my practise and what is significant to me presently is completely different to what it was like when I was in my training, and this is where I was struggling, In training I was influenced by the choreographers and dance styles I was studying as part of my criteria then, very influential people like Martha Graham, Cunningham, Fosse, and Fred Astaire. Now after taking a slightly different route down the showgirl style, rather than musical theatre. It got me thin
