Synopsis of 'The People among us'
This is an outline of the creative process behind 'The People Among Us': a project that involved student choreography, technology integration, and collaboration. The final product was performed at Powell Elementary School in December 2014. This project encouraged students to understand and appreciate the people that they interact with on a daily basis. These are valuable lessons that began in the dance classroom, but have been taken into the students' daily lives.
