ABSTRACT

Over the past two years, our global dance community has faced many challenges while coming to terms with a health crisis that drastically altered home and working lives. In this article, we focus on how dance scholars can work collaboratively during extended periods of isolation. We begin by overviewing the drastically altered environment of dance education during pandemic, then direct our focus to the ways that we, as dance scholars, were also adjusting our practices to sustain research collaborations and provide support for colleagues during extended periods of isolation and physical distancing. Expanding upon insights from prior qualitative dance research, and addressing an aspect of the research process often conducted in isolation, we describe a 7-step collaborative interview analysis process. Based on our initial trial of this process, as international dance scholars analyzing three separate dance projects, we discuss how our online analysis sessions enabled researchers (separated by space, time, and experience) to support one another, encouraging momentum and connection during a time of heightened stress and uncertainty.

摘要

在过去的两年里，我们的全球舞蹈社区在应对一场彻底改变家庭和工作生活的健康危机时面临着许多挑战。在这篇文章中，我们重点关注舞蹈学者如何在长期隔离期间协同工作。我们首先概述了大流行期间舞蹈教育环境发生的巨大变化，然后将重点放在我们作为舞蹈学者也在调整我们的实践以维持研究合作并在长期隔离和身体疏远期间为同事提供支持的方式. 扩展先前定性舞蹈研究的见解，并解决经常孤立进行的研究过程的一个方面，我们描述了一个 7 步协作访谈分析过程。根据我们对这个过程的初步试验，
