고등학생의 전통무용 수업에 대한 인식 탐색

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify perception of high school student on traditional dance class. This study was conducted in a dance class, which was presented to Year 10 students enrolling at academic high schools once a week, in the manner of self-assessment of the class by a teacher. Data was collected through both the group interview held in class time and the individual interviews after class. The findings of data analysis are as followings Perception of high school students on traditional dance class has been divided into seven groups; "worrying about the first experience and indifference to traditional dance", "boring repetition and circulation", "unpractical contents", "affection and pride", "masculine beauty" and "traditional dance music is percussion". Most of the students had never had dance lesson before, especially traditional dance lesson. Because the students had little knowledge on traditional dance and could not predict development of class and evaluation criteria of their performance, they had a fear of the traditional dance class, rather than had exciting feeling or curiosity. In order to improve this situation, traditional dance class in a school should be presented to students with comprehensive consideration of traditional costume and a place to dance. In addition, a new curriculum including education of traditional musical elements which can enhance rhythm of traditional dances should be developed because traditional dance simple cannot exist without traditional music.
