This week I had the great privilege of becoming a graduate student
of Middlesex University London, it is a professional MA in Dance Pedagogy and
Technique. It is the fulfilment of a great dream of mine to have been
accepted into this programme, and I face the challenge with great
enthusiasm. On Sunday my classmates and myself received an induction to
the programme. What most piqued my intellectual curiosity and where I
will begin my course exploration is diving into their library with the course reading
list and beyond. See, I am a dance teacher of the tiny beautiful country
of Costa Rica without access to such a selection of dance books. This
library to me is the key to a dance world beyond the borders and limitations of
geographic location...let the learning begin!
So beautiful! Dreams give direction and meaning to our lives.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nanna, and thank you for following!
DeleteSo happy to see other Costa Ricans represent our little country. Pura vida!
ReplyDeletePura vida to you too!
DeleteHi Marianella! I have also just started with module 1 and I too am looking forward to delving into some of the literature we have access too. It's exciting to think you are all the way in Costa Rica studying! What are your first thoughts on the learning handbooks? Chrissie x
ReplyDeleteHi Chrissie! Thank you for writing. My first thoughts on the learning handbooks was on the amazing fluidity of knowledge and learning. As I read through the handbooks, especially analysing possible topics for our Area of Learning essays, I am impressed by the large number of approaches we can angle our work from. The lovely aspect of this is that we will truly be able to personalize our analysis and work.
