Choreographic Pedagogy in Higher Education: Learning from practitioners

This paper outlines some current practices in the teaching of choreography in higher education in England and discusses reasons why there appears to be a diversity of practice in the vocational and university sectors. In England there has been little scholarly analysis of choreographic pedagogy in higher education and still less published material to draw on to provide a clear view of current practice. For example, there are few papers which discuss different choreographic teaching methods in higher education, or evaluations of the efficacy of one method over another. This situation may be different in other countries. It is my belief that there should be a sharing of good teaching and learning practice amongst academics and practitioners and that the time is ripe, with the inception of this new journal, for this exchange to begin to take place. It is my hope that this paper will make a contribution to the debate, and it would be interesting to hear from other dance colleagues whose experiences may differ.
