NDEO Standards in Action Conference

National K-12 Dance Education: Standards in Action

January 29-31, 2016
DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel at Berkeley Marina

Berkeley, California

The New National Core Arts Standards for Dance were developed by NDEO in collaboration with the National Coalition of Core Arts Standards NCCAS. In order to assist educators with implementing the standards in their studio and classrooms, NDEO is offering a series of Regional Special Topics Conferences focused on training educators from all sectors on the content of the standards and how to implement them in the studio and classroom.

Members of the Dance Writing Task Force will be on hand to train teachers to use the standards and develop Model Cornerstone Assessments, while real life Early Adopters of the standards will be available to provide real-world feedback on what it is like to implement the standards in their schools.
