Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of classwide peer tutoring in the collegiate dance sport classes. The subjects for this study were 66 college students who enrolled in dance sport classes. Three different treatment groups, classwide peer tutoring group, traditional group, and control group were randomly assigned as the independent variables. Closed basic steps(noble task) were the task used in this study. Student’s academic achievement (closed basic steps, cognitive understanding on skill process characteristics) was the dependant variable and perception on successful and unsuccessful experiences were collected. Kruskal Wallis nonparametric test and frequency analysis showed that classwide peer tutoring group performed the best than any other groups on two dependent variables. Students’ successful and unsuccessful experiences indicates that their experiences were valuable. This study shows that classwide peer tutoring might be a good choice as a new alternative teaching strategy in dance class. The implication of classwide peer tutoring can be used as a valuable teaching strategy for dance skill learning.
