Pedagogy & Social Practice with DeAngelo
Join us for an enriching five-day workshop where we embark on a deep exploration of the dynamic relationship between identity and pedagogy. Throughout this immersive experience, we’ll navigate through key themes, beginning with “How Identity Impacts You,” and progressing to an insightful examination of the influence of identity on pedagogy through the transformative lens of decolonization.
Our journey will extend into the rich realm of cross-disciplinary philosophers whose insights have the potential to shape and elevate dance pedagogy. By delving into various perspectives, we’ll uncover the invaluable role of interdisciplinary subjects as potent tools for unit planning in dance education.
Whether you arrive with a pre-existing lesson or draw inspiration from the courses offered during the week, you’ll have the opportunity to craft something authentic and meaningful. The aim is for you to depart with tangible materials that resonate with who you are as an educator, align with your passion for teaching, and embody the values you aspire to instill in your students.
Guided by the wisdom of multiple scholars in the field of dance and those connected to Historically Responsive frameworks, this collaborative journey will empower us to cultivate excellence in our craft. Together, we’ll forge a path towards pedagogical brilliance, leaving you equipped with newfound tools to inspire and connect with your students on a deeper level.
