Dance, Education, Choreography, and Cooking
Conversations for stories of practice on movement, mindfulness, the creative process, and social justice happen around creating meals. As I slice, chop, and prepare a meal, thoughts for the next podcast and blog sometimes come while spicing and marinating dishes. As an educator and choreographer, the creative process for me begins to stir in the kitchen. Welcome to the podcast "What Stirs" I am your host, Dr. Desiree Cremer, the Cooking Choreographer.
During the pandemic when most schools were in distance learning, I talked with Dr. Erin Thompson for my podcast, What Stirs, Thompson shared her thoughts and principles on the pandemic and education.
The students are back at school as if there is no pandemic. There is no social distancing and no safety. Just because educational leaders say the schools are safe does not necessarily make it so.
The pandemic teaches us in education that we cannot go back to business as usual. It reveals the inequities for students and teachers and brings to the surface the outdated educational policies that need revisiting or plain removal.
