Award Title - Task 6c

This task has asked us to provide our Title for our proposal. Looking at our questions for our inquiry to give us an overall title. 

 Based on my questions I have decided to call my proposal the following:

 ' An Inquiry Research Proposal into the dynamics of community dance, it's history and the benefits it entails.' 

 Written Rationale:

 The rationale behind my title is based on community dance as this is such a broad subject I wanted to focus it on the 3 main sections: what is community dance? the history (how has it developed) and the benefits of community dance. I decided to focus my inquiry on community dance as I am currently a community dance practitioner and would like to develop my knowledge on this subject, using my practice and the support I have around me. Currently my work role involves teaching in various locations with a wide range of participants. This includes Dance in the EYFS (early years foundation stage) all the way up to care homes where participants can be 100 years old. Also I teach a huge variety of styles from ballet to contemporary to street to cross-curricular.  Therefore I would like to look more in depth to be able to develop my teaching skills by looking at what other community dance practitioners beliefs and their practices.  I believe this inquiry will benefit me in the future as it covers such a wide range in dance, which I can use throughout my future career development. 
Any thoughts on my award title would be really appreciated. :)

    hey georgie! Just thought I would add my input on this... by the award speciality I believe the task means you choose what you want your professional practice award title to be... for example BA Hons Professional Practice (Dance) - You choose the bracket bit :) I got a bit confused on this task too but forgive me if i'm wrong but I think that's what it means! :) We are all in this together so didn't want to read your blog and not make you aware of what I thought the interpretation of the task is :)
    Hope you dont mind me telling you :) However on a positive note what you have written here is not a waste! You can definitely use that in your proposal or critical reflection! :)

    Adesola shared some great information with me regarding proposal titles though! We will only develop more on a title we have already been working along the lines of! It is only the very end we realise what we are calling our proposal! Took me some understanding too! I was thinking the whole module I needed to set the title of my proposal and I wasnt allowed to change it!! But we definitely are!

    Good Luck with the draft!

Helpful Things...

Hello again, Aren't you lucky, my 3rd blog in a few days!  Well, this is a quick simple one for those of you on the BAPP arts course (also for those who aren't!) but I have found a few helpful things that I thought I would share with you all.  The first,we have reached part 2 of our course which as you will know is all about reflective writing. We have all been asked to keep a journal. However if you are anything like me, life can seem to get very busy so finding the time to write in your journal can be a bit difficult. Especially as I have to carry a lot around with me most of the time so adding an extra book equals even more weight! Therefore I have found a easy, free online site which you can keep journals on, and there is even an app for your phone. I am using this for my 'on-the-go' journal as it is quick and easy and then writing up my proper journal of an evening to make sure I don't miss anything!  The site/app is called Penzu, the link is here: http...

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

Task 1C: Audio Visual

Onto the next task!  When I first read that we had to create an Audio Visual and upload it onto youtube, my initial thought was dread! I am not really one for videos or even pictures for that matter! But I have committed myself to this course and ALL of the challenges it throws my way. So I began... I started doing a little research and having a look at what people have done in the past for this task. I noticed that there was quite a variety in the way people have done this task, and one of the things I first noticed was that, I didn't have to be in the video! I liked the idea of using pictures and even some people used power point to do their audio visuals.  Taking some of these ideas on, I decided the first thing I need to do is write a short script of what I am going to say, easy right?  Wrong! I think I changed my mind at least 10 times! In honesty I lost count of how many pieces of paper I had scribbled all over. But finally my script was done.  I then...
