Using the Journal of Dance Education with Students in Secondary Education

ABSTRACT

This In Practice Article provides recommendations on how to utilize Journal of Dance Education (JoDE) articles with secondary education students (typically ages 10–18), featuring examples of all four types of JoDE articles (Feature Articles, In-Practice Articles, Student Readings, and Book Reviews). These recommendations align with the National Core Arts Standards in Dance and can promote collaboration in schools between dance educators and educators from other disciplines within secondary education. This article also seeks to highlight the needs of dance educators in secondary dance education and support them in finding resources, expanding the possibilities for how JoDE can be used with younger dance education students.
