Abstract

This study analyzed how dance education at universities was conducted in the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper analyzed previous studies on dance education at universities and conducted in-depth interviews with dance professors and students. When online classes began with the pandemic, it was difficult and confusing for professors and students to adapt to online dance classes. Professors lost their confidence as educators, and students could not concentrate on their classes. After many trials and errors, professors conducted online classes, where students were the center of the class, and students were highly satisfied with these classes. In addition, interaction between professors and students became active by efficiently using the online system. During online classes in the pandemic, professors realized that changes in existing teaching methods were necessary. Education in the department of dance at universities needs to change the teaching environment and educational methods. There should be various forms of education based on emotional state expression and body recognition through dance. It should be possible to develop, accept, and utilize the necessary teaching skills both online and offline. Professors should be able to act as assistants for students in class. They must have fair evaluation criteria for contactless classes. It is necessary to adjust the number of students suitable for non-face-to-face classes. Various teaching methods such as STEAM, Blended Learning, and PBL should be applied so that students can experience problem solving on their own and form critical thinking and creativity.
