Higher Education Academy Palatine Development Award.

Layman's description

The project developed and produced a resource document and accompanying DVD to provide an accessible resource for tutors delivering practical dance activity to students with physical or sensory disabilities in HE. The resource drew principally from a range of materials that were generated through an extended period of research culminating in two national conferences on this theme with experts in the field of dance and disability during 2007. The resource document includes best practice recommendations from within the wider dance community and provides contacts for expanding networks and collaborative working across the sector.

The objectives were to develop materials that will provide information about teaching and learning strategies, detailed information about working with Learning Support Assistants in the studio, suggestions for modifying and adapting curricular, and ideas for assessment methods and student support. A DVD included filmed material from both conferences including reflections by speakers students and dance practitioners.
