Task 6B continued...


Questionaires...

After reading reader 6 and looking at other students blogs I come across that most people were using a source called survey monkey to help produce their questionnaires as an online survey and information is kept private.

For my questionnaire it will be aimed at primary school teachers, dance teachers and people with a dance backgroud. The questions/statements will have a multiple choice section or chance to type their own opinion. I will intend to ask as many participants as possible to take part in my questionnaire but as it says in reader 6 to expect only 20% repossess rate.
I am also planning on doing a paper questionnaire for students to participate in, but for this to happen I will need parent/guardian consent for students to take part and why they are taking part.

Pros

1. easy to use an answer
2. can collect lots of data in a short period of time
3. if kept quantitative data they can be easily evaluated.

Cons

1. low response rate
2. relys on internet access
3.  developing the correct questions for my inquiry could be difficult.

1b. Remixable data and transformations "Originating in hip hop and rap music, the notion that materials can be reused and rearranged for a new purpose is central to Web 2.0, where we as users share photos, music, text, ideas and opinions and 'riff off' each other to maintain and nurture dialogues." This isn't new in our industry just that the Web 2.0 makes it so much easier and faster to see and be inspired by another artist without mentioning them. Also with just a click of a button you can access artists' work from all over the world. It is good to be inspired by other artists' work to help create your own, but I think you should credit them when they make an impact to you as a person and to your profession. This made me also think about recent news of well known artists such as Beyoncé "being accused of copying visual artist Pipilotti Rists 1997 project "Ever is all over" for the video" ( Sonis, R 2016)  of "Hold Up...

Integrating  arts at an early stage. Even though my inquiry is looking at dance in primary school ages and how dance is incorporated in to the classroom and teaches experiences with this. The Washington Post wrote an article about a kindergarten teacher "using theater and dance to teach math and it's working..." very interesting. Melissa Richardson a drama teacher was sent from the wolf trap institute to collaborate with kindergarten teacher, Carol Hunt to encourage students in her class using arts integration. The article talks and gives an  about how they incorporated arts into the classroom and the statistics of doing so compare to other students not having the experience from the wolf trap program.  For more information go to :  https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/teachers-are-using-theater-and-dance-to-teach-math--and-its-working/2016/02/22/61f8dc0c-d68b-11e5-b195-2e29a4e13425_story.html?utm_term=.c9a5c246457a I wanted to find out mor...

New Literature.... After days and days of more researching I came across a professor Marilyn Berrett and ex-student of BYU, Erika Cravath.  Erika Cravath researched about integrating dance into the classroom for her honors thesis project with Marilyn Berrett being one of her mentors on this journey. Erika has also published a book in 2011 the title being "Creative Dance Integration Lesson Plans by Erika Cravath" It's a guide for teachers to help integrate dance into their lessons also giving example lesson plans at the end of the book.  To find this book here is the link:  https://education.byu.edu/sites/default/files/ARTS/documents/educational_movement.pdf   Also here is a video of Marilyn Berrett and Erika Cravath conducting a workshop to teachers on how they can incorporate dance into the classroom environment.   Link:  https://vimeo.com/20476307
