ResDance Series 5: Episode 3: Dance Pedagogy and collaborative learning with Ashleigh Ritchie

In this episode, Ashleigh shares insight into her experiences as a pedagogue and researcher, with research interests in Dance Pedagogy and collaborative

learning and teaching with students as partners.  Underpinned by the coming together of theoretical knowledge and practice in the ‘doing’ of teaching, Ashleigh discusses the theoretical frameworks that inform her research and teaching practices.  Throughout the episode, she highlights the role of collaboration in the co-construction of knowledge and the importance of students locating the ‘self’ in their practice.  Ashleigh shares her thinking around researcher positionality, power imbalances, equal partnerships within teaching and research settings, the importance of taking risks in practice and the wider value of dance and research degrees.
