New Research Methods in Teaching Performing Arts

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The performing arts—music, dance, drama, and interdisciplinary practices—are rapidly evolving in response to cultural, technological, and pedagogical transformations. Teaching methods must adapt to accommodate shifting learner needs, digital innovations, and globalized artistic practices. This paper explores emerging research methods in teaching performing arts, focusing on practice-as-research (PaR), ethnographic inquiry, digital ethnography, performance-based pedagogy, and arts-based research (ABR). It highlights the integration of new media technologies, interdisciplinary collaboration, and reflective practice in contemporary performing arts education. Drawing from recent case studies, it argues for a holistic and flexible research approach that bridges practice and theory, enabling students to become both critical thinkers and innovative practitioners. Keywords: Music, Dance, Drama, Drawing, Performing Art
