FCL5012 - Applying Movement and Dance to Different Target Groups

Objectives:

On successful completion of the module, students will be able to:

1 Analyse and evaluate suitability of dance and movement sessions for target audiences.
2 Adapt exercises to meet a range of specific individual and group requirements.
3 Plan, deliver and evaluate sessions to meet a range of specific group requirements.

Content:

Students will exercise selection of exercises for suitability for particular groups – for example what would be suitable for a falls prevention group and what would be suitable for a primary or secondary school group. Having made a selection, students will show how they might adapt or modify their selected exercises for a particular group. The selection rationale and modification will be evidenced with effective session planning, evaluation, feedback and appropriate modification. Students will also be aware of protocols relating to safeguarding children and vulnerable adults.

Learning and Teaching Information:

Within each teaching block there will be a one-day intensive session that will introduce the two modules to be studied. Following this, students will undertake on-line distance learning via Moodle to structure the 12-week teaching block with appropriate milestones, formative tasks and final submission of assignments.

Additionally, students will be attending Lishi classes (usually on a weekly basis) where they may carry out learning tasks appropriate to that module, including observed teaching assignments and presentations.

Additional assessment information
For each assessment there will be a process of calibration of a sample of assignments between the VL and the programme manager. These will be based upon a clear marking matrix and criteria framework. Once calibration is achieved there will be a system of sampled second marking and moderation to assure quality and best practice
