My Special Interest Group.

The next 'task' was to create a special interest group and join others along the way too. This idea is to find people who are working along the same sort of lines as your inquiry, so that you can share and discuss ideas/ literature and help each other along the way. 

 So I've created my SIG on google groups. I am hoping this works! 

 As I am looking into community dance and how it has changed over the last 20 years or so, I would really like anyone from any background to join and share their ideas/ opinions of community dance. Also looking into how in a lot of schools now dance is part of their education whether it is a core subject, or they do this as a whole term subject. I know I myself go into primary schools for a cross-curricular approach to their lessons etc. 

 So yes please all feel free to join my group, and I am going to look at some others to join myself to. 

 Here is the link:

 https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/special-interest-group-community-dance

Also I have created a google community page, please feel free to join and share on that too! 

 https://plus.google.com/communities/114502732372211180351

Hope to chat to you soon!

First Week Back!

Hi all,  So summer is officially over, and I think the weather is definitely reminding us of that!  During the summer I had a lot of free time, so I was researching and planning for the year ahead, as well as going along to so many interviews for new job opportunities to help develop my career.  As this was the first week back at university it was time to put my plans to practice. I must admit I have struggled having such a huge gap between modules but I am now feeling ready and replenished to give Module 3 my all!  Let's get going! I am now working in 2 different stage schools, one is definitely more community based. Alongside this I am still working for the same dance company where I teach all ages from 3-100 years old (and that is no exaggeration). They have also offered me office work within their company which is amazing as I can learn what goes on 'behind the scenes' when running your own company. I have also signed up to 2 diffe...

Task 3c: Sources Of Information

The next task is focused on where we get our information from. As I have been looking through others blogs I have noticed that everyone uses a variety of sources to find the information they need. In this blog I will be telling you my sources of information and how helpful I find them to help me progress in my career.  When I first looked up sources of information I found that most can be put into 3 categories: Primary Information Secondary Information Tertiary Information These are quite self explanitory but I will break them down for you. A Primary source is firsthand information about an event, for example our journals that we have all been writing. They are sources which have not been edited by a second party yet. Therefore a Secondary source is an analysation of a primary source, these include reviews, text books and even most of our blogs would be a secondary source as we analyse various pieces of information. Tertiary sources are often used to gain fact...

Good News!

This is just a quick blog... So today I had a meeting with one of the companies I work for. It was really good, full of so much information and was lovely to see the team altogether as we don't get to do this often. One of my colleagues did a short presentation on 'Phonics' which was fantastic and has lead me to so many new ideas!  But that is not the best of it. Each year they select 4 members of staff to win teacher of the year, and I was one of them! I am so thrilled to be nominated! I nearly cried! It just goes to show, that the harder you work the more you get rewarded. I'm not sure if I'll win as I'm up against some great contenders, but just to be nominated makes me feel so proud!  So that's my good news of today!  Chow Chow
