seen in largely instrumental terms; its specific nature and intrinsic values obscured by reference to recreation,

socialization, and therapy. Secondly, it is regarded primarily as a physical activity, and is therefore apt to be judged by

inadequate, and sometimes by inappropriate criteria.

Thirdly, the accounts that are often given of what we see when we look at movement have not been sufficiently

differentiated, which in turn has resulted in a less imaginative and a less in-depth teaching of Dance.

Conclusion Dance as a form of education in the 21st century in Hong

Kong, must be given recognition alongside other Arts. The aim of this series of articles is to provide a justification for

the inclusion of Dance within the school curriculum, and

also a direction for what the Dance curriculum should encompass: it is to be that kind of Dance that is Art. Dance

must be recognized in schools today as a valuable Art form

in its own right. It must be respected alongside other Arts

Finally, Dance in Physical Education curricula, to which by and large it has been associated globally, is one of the major problematic issues. The primacy of motor skill acquisition,

team building, and learning through competition, that is characteristic of Physical Education, is often cited as a

contributor to the distorted perceptions of Dance as an Art

form.

It is also argued that Dance within this context,

disseminates the view of Dance as a frill, a hobby, a leisure

time activity, as a rhythmic motor skill, a form of recreation or a means to compete, as entertainment, and as a non­

significant category of learning to students, parents, and the

curricula. Dance education should focus on the aesthetic

aspects of Dance, recognizing Dance as an Art form，and acknowledging its intrinsic value to education. If the teaching of Dance based on outdated historical modes in

combination with social prejudices in the present educational context remains unchallenged and unchanged, students will

not be motivated to undertake an understanding and engagement of Dance as an exploration of the human

predicament or as a learning tool, or even to consider it as a

diverse professional career opportunity. If this were the

case, there could never be a proper educational introduction to Dance as an Art form.

context should not just be concerned with training the participant’s body to be able to perform tricks, certain

movements, or routines in an unthinking, mechanical

manner. Rather, Dance in an educational context requires a holistic approach to the development of individual students.

It should be accountable for certain kinds of subject-related cognitive understanding, and for the development of socially and morally acceptable behaviour, values and attitudes.

Dance education should involve transmitting practical knowledge to the participant, knowledge that he or she can rationally use.
