- Dancing Toward Success: Arts Education for Public Schools

Catalog description

A community-based learning course that will investigate and decode the issues surrounding arts education access, funding, and the intersectionality of power, justice, arts, and learning in the contemporary United States. Building on theory learned through readings, class discussion, and guest speakers, students will collaborate with a local elementary school to design a dance education residency throughout the semester. The course will culminate with students putting their plans into action, delivering the residency and sharing the power of art and movement with elementary children in their community.
