Dance is an activity that everyone can enjoy, and Dance
Appreciation will help students do just that. Dance Appreciation is
written to encompass the needs of a broad range of dance students,
from high school to university level, and is appropriate for
students who are new to dance as well as those who are experienced
in the art form. The text will help learners discover more about
themselves, connect with dance, and make it a relevant and vital
part of their lives, whether it is their primary course of study,
eventual career path, or simply a way to express themselves and
enrich their lives. This text is the only dance appreciation
resource that offers ancillary materials for instructors:
Instructor ancillaries consisting of an instructor guide, test
package, and PowerPoint presentation package make the teaching
experience both easier and more effective, whether teaching in
face-to-face or online settings. Five video segments demonstrate
elements of dance and offer associated learning and movement
activities, bringing the content to life for students. Textbook
elements such as learning objectives, key terms, Enduring
Understanding statements, Spotlight special elements, and chapter
discussion questions help students navigate the chapters and retain
the essential content. In addition, related resources delivered
through HKPropel supply students with learning activities,
individual and group projects, handouts, time lines, suggestions
for further reading, video recommendations, and more to facilitate
the learning experience. Dance Appreciation helps students
understand dance from the perspectives of dancers, choreographers,
and professionals in other careers related to dance. Students are
introduced to a broad range of dance genres, forms, and styles, and
they learn to forge a relationship with dance as an art form,
connecting it with other academic and artistic disciplines and with
their own life experiences. The text is organized into three parts.
Part I, Exploring Dance, provides a foundational understanding of
who dances and why, and it introduces the elements of dance and
movement principles. Part II, Selected Dance Genres and Styles,
covers Western dance genres, examining classical concert dance
forms, hip-hop, and aerial and site-specific dance, highlighting
notable artists and events. In part III, Connecting With Dance,
students delve into aspects of dance performance and production,
learning approaches for viewing and responding to dance
performances and exploring the role of global interactions,
especially through online content and social media, in developing
and transmitting new dance forms and styles. Throughout the text,
readers will learn about dance-related career paths. Dance
Appreciation offers instructors an up-to-date, comprehensive
resource-complete with an array of ancillaries-that ensures that
students have the opportunity to become informed, discerning, and
responsive dance audience members and gain a broad appreciation of
dance as an art form and a lifetime physical activity. Note: A code
for accessing HKPropel is included with all new print books.
