I wasn't able to make Tuesdays Module 3 discussion due to work, but so far I have found the blogs on the discussion very helpful.
I can really relate to the idea of a shift happening during the inquiry process. For me, it was the understanding that 'The theoretical world is not composed of a single idea' (S.R Koff, 2003)
My inquiry question is....
What is the relationship between the Multiple Intelligences Theory and Dance Teaching?
The theory has many different perspectives, and through reading them through literature I learnt that I have to stay reflexive. And not to look at the theory as something to behold but instead as something that can be adjusted, reworked to my ideas and practice.
I went into my inquiry not knowing how I will answer the question... And now I have completed my data collection and am in the final stages of writing my draft (cutting out the fluff and trying to get that word count down)
I still don't have a definitive answer, I do however have lots of new ideas, thoughts and questions.
I'm hoping that's the point!!! Right?
If you were on the call and made any notes, in the spirit of 'Connectivism' (G.Siemens, 2006) please do comment any of your thoughts below.

Hi Charlie, I was also not on the call but I believe you are correct. There is no definitive answer but multiple pathways that all interlink. We must remain open to ideas and opportunities, which in turn, helps us to reflect back with a new sense awareness. Keep up the good work! Jess
