In this book you will find helpful Dance Education resources that will guide you through a successful year of teaching. When we, Dance Educators, begin our school year we are told to follow state standards, however no curriculum is supplied that meets the needs of each level of classes. Instead, we are asked to create our own curriculum, our own syllabus, decorate our class, create lessons and much, much more. Ultimately, an administrator evaluates us to see if these items are successfully accomplished and meet the state standards. Meanwhile, we have a million other things to think about. What lessons do I teach my students? In what order do I teach those lessons? What is the best history lesson to teach? Which vocabulary terms do I teach? What are my classroom expectations? What are the best performance tips to give my students? What wall décor do I hang on my classroom walls? Which rubrics do I use to assess my students? What is the best audition document? What choreography lessons should I use? What do I need to do before the show? The list goes on and on. This book offers you a variety of resources to choose from that would best fit your method of teaching. It is primarily for the middle school and high school dance teachers at public and private schools. You will receive an abundance of helpful ideas and lessons. You can choose to implement one idea or lesson at a time and then eventually continue to add other ideas into your plans as the years continue.

This work provides access to information on the rich and often little known legacy of anthropological scholarship preserved in a diversity of archives, libraries and museums. Selected anthropological manuscripts, papers, fieldnotes, site reports, photographs and sound recordings in more than 150 repositories are described. Coverage of resources in North American repositories is extensive while Great Britain, France, the Netherlands, Australia and certain other countries are more selectively represented. Entries are arranged by repository location and most contributors draw upon a special knowledge of the resources described. Contributors include James R. Glenn (National Anthropological Archives), Elizabeth Edwards and Veronica Lawrence (Pitt Rivers Museum, University of Oxford), Francisco Demetrio, S.J. (Museum and Archives, Xavier University, Philippines) and many others. The guide covers selected documentation in social and cultural anthropology, physical anthropology, archaeology and folklore. Some major area studies collections (such as the Asia Collections, Cornell University Libraries, and the Melanesian Archive at the University of California, San Diego) are also represented. Web URLs have been cited when available and personal, and ethnic name indexes are provided.
Dance Production: Design and Technology introduces you to the skills you need to plan, design, and execute the technical aspects of a dance production. While it may not seem that staging a dance production is that different from a play or musical, in reality a dance performance offers up unique intricacies and challenges all its own, from scenery that accommodates choreography, to lighting design that sculpts the body, and costumes that complement movement. This unique book approaches the process of staging a dance production from a balanced perspective, making it an essential resource for dancers and designers alike. Covering a broad range of topics, author Jeromy Hopgood takes the reader through the process of producing dance from start to finish – including pre-production planning (collaboration, production process, personnel, performance spaces), design disciplines (lighting, sound, scenery, costumes, projections), stage management, and more. Bridging the gap between theatrical and dance design, the book includes a quick reference guide for theatrical and dance terminology, useful in giving dancers and designers a common working vocabulary that will ensure productive communication across the different fields.
