Hello fellow BAPP learners,
We've come to the end of our BAPP course.
I found this course invaluable. The tasks in the modules have developed critical awareness in my professional network, ability to reflect, analyse and change my work and practices and more importantly I have the academic ability to communicate my ideas to a range of audiences. I found the course to be flexible and I was able to fit it around my family and professional practice as a freelance dance teacher.
My oral presentation was a summary of my findings of my critical review. The BAPP course allowed me to research my subject and I acquired historical and cultural knowledge of salsa dance. This made me aware of my passion for cultural studies in dance. In addition, I realised the importance of media tools and developed a particular interest in filming and editing. My artefact was a documentary style film of salsa dance. I intend to continue and develop this type of filming.
I would encourage fellow BAPP learners about to start module three to persist in their progression and to keep lines of communication constant with their advisers for constructive and exemplary information and support as I have experienced.
Congratulations to my fellow BAPP learners in completing their degree and in their onward journey and thank you for your support during this course.
Looking forward to seeing you at the graduation.
See below my slide presentation. I intend to add my artefact documentary digital film on salsa dance once permission has been granted by the teachers.
