Description

There are many reports that the teaching of creative dance in Junior High Schools can be very difficult. The aim of this study is to develop software that aids students in learning creative dance in Physical Education Classes and to investigate its effectiveness from the viewpoints of students. The subjects were from the same grade at the same school. They were classified in two classes according to the teaching method. One class was taught by first being introduced to the software and thereafter by using the traditional teaching method of words and pictures on a chart. The second class was first taught using the traditional method and thereafter by using the software. The results of the students' responses can be summarized as follows: In the case of separated investigations for each method, affirmative reactions were generally found for both methods, but there was no significant difference between the two classes. However, in the case of comparative investigations, students recognized that the software is more effective than the traditional teaching method. These results show that the software for aiding creative dance is more effective in the understanding and composition of creative dance.
