A new angle on maths: towards an equal partnership of mathematics and dance through interdisciplinary dance teaching

Research Output: Contribution to specialist publication Article

Open access

Abstract

Evidence of transfer of learning is clear in neuroscientific research and in the exploration of various learning styles. However, dance has mainly been used as a teaching tool rather than an equal partner in interdisciplinary work in mathematics and dance. This article offers a brief introduction to such an equal partnership, established in an action research project in Canada, in order to teach both choreography and geometry in Primary schools.
