Meredith College Student Private Studio Internship Evaluation Name: Marianna Blizzard For: jazz level 1 When: March 18, 2013

By: Dr.Shapiro Planning Clear objective connected to their performance dance. Introduction of concepts noted for beginning of class. Good noting how you will assess students learning and understanding. For your outcomes, write them in the future; students will be able to

demonstrate... as opposed to “students were able to…”

Provide them with something to work on for next class. Ask to see it when they return. See if you can develop a plan that connects from beginning to end. Teaching Nice informal talking wing students prior to class beginning getting to know them better and find out what is going on in their lives. Clear demonstrations with clear vocal cues. You are good at giving instruction while moving. It is clear you have a lot of practice in this. Good use of correct terminology and inquiry approach to learning. Can you walk around to provide hands on correction if they already know the warmup? You can provide the more advanced students with more challenges- on your grapevine I want to see if you can ..... Or int he pas de Bourne she is you can make your bourbon turn... You have clear command of class with student's respect.

Evaluation of students You have noted how you are going to observe students informally to assess them but what are other ways you might assess their knowledge or learning? Good recognition of the two older students for their rhythm. Try to find positive and constructive comments for each student during the class.

Sometimes holding your students hand while she is doing a difficult combination for her helps. Other Nice class. You have a nice sense of the students and what level to teach. Be sure that you provide technical queues as well as the movement pattern (what do they need to think about in their bodies to do the movement successfully and to develop correct alignment?). Help students understand how what they are doing connects to what they are learning or preparing to do. For example "feel the turn out in 2nd as you lift your

leg to passé. Remember this for our combination later in class."
