Technology Tips For All Teachers -TeacherTechBlog

Thrilltheworld.com offers a series of 40(most are a minute or two) videos to teach the Thriller Dance. Not only does it show an instructor teaching each of the moves in a step by step fashion, it breaks down each part to a good speed for learning. Something like this would be an incredible resource for show choirs, but imagine the possibilities when introduced to any mandatory general arts class. The dance is tough and long, but even if you could spend a few days learning the intro it would be a fun way to involve the students in the terms that they are learning. The dance easily lends itself to covering most terms within the space, time and force elements of dance. My classes will soon start this for the first time in the next couple of weeks, so be on the lookout for handouts, quizzes and lessons on Thriller!
