Standard 2: Knowing and Using Arts Materials and Resources

2. Students will know how to access dance and dance-related material from libraries, resource centers, museums, studios, and performance spaces. Students will know various career possibilities in dance and recreational opportunities to dance. Students will attend dance events and participate as appropriate within each setting.

Students:

demonstrate knowledge of sources for understanding dance technologies: live, print, video, computer, etc. (a)
demonstrate knowledge of how human structure and function affect movement in parts of dances and dances that they know or have choreographed (b)
demonstrate knowledge of audience/performer responsibilities and relationships in dance (c)
demonstrate knowledge of differences in performance venue and the events presented in each (d).

This is evident, for example, when students:
