TASK 6C - Award Title

So when looking through the award titles are was really confused about these titles as quite a few of them really went with what are do and connects to what I have achieved in my previous Diploma.

The titles I considered and why?

  • BA (Hons) Professional Practice ( Dance): Rationale reason to pick this I majored in Dance at Italia Conti this was my subject and this is my first subject at school. But this makes me a one track teacher with a degree only in Dance I don't want this I want to be able teach Drama as well which is what I am doing now at the secondary school.  So reflecting on this title I am not going to go for this title.
  • BA (Hons) Professional Practice ( Dance teaching) This really only limits me to teach Dance in a secondary school I don't just want to teach Dance I want to be able to teach Both subjects and maybe even have a try at Music I took music as a GCSE. I really want to be an all round Performing Arts teacher.
  • BA (Hons) Professional Practice ( Musical Theatre) : Rationale reason for this my actual diploma is A level 6 diploma in Musical Theatre do I want my degree in the same thing?? This would make sense. I really think that Musical Theatre doesn't say anything about what you can do.
  • BA (Hons) Professional Practice ( Performing Arts): Rationale reasons for this title. I am currently working in a Performing Arts Faculty eventually I want to run my own faculty or department if I have this title against my name this means that they would consider me in all 3 subjects as a teacher and gives me more choices for work opportunities. Reflecting on all the titles this is the one that's going to suit me best the fact that I am teaching 2 subjects Dance and Drama and enjoying teaching both subjects. Also teaching a little music next year would be a next step for me. I would really like to go down this year. Also this award title goes with my inquiry question: I am asking What are the motivational barriers for the KS3 boys within the PERFORMING ARTS? I am not saying about just one of the subjects I am looking at all 3. The only thing my expertise is in Dance so this will be specialist subject but my 2nd and 3rd subjects could be Drama and Music. I took Music as a GCSE an played the piano, violin and clarinet till I was 15. I have been taking part in Drama since I was 5 this is part of me. I just specialise in Dance as the subject that's my specialist subject.
My next job is now to write a rationale proposal for the Module 2 title.

Please let me know your thoughts on this what one are you picking and why??
