Peculiarities of choreographic education in higher education establishments in Ukraine during the covid-19 pandemic: A phenomenological analysis

Abstract

This article presents a phenomenological analysis of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on choreographic education processes in higher education establishments in Ukraine. The research is based on a systematic study of the experiences of teachers of choreography in Ukraine during the pandemic, focusing on the changes brought about in the educational process by the restrictions imposed in response to the global crisis. The authors conducted qualitative research, including interviewing teachers and analyzing the collected data. They investigated how teachers adapted their teaching methods to ensure continuity in the educational process despite the transition to distance learning. The article explores different aspects of this process: changes to the organization of the educational process; psychological aspects of pandemic teaching, stress, and teachers' adaptation to new conditions; innovative approaches to education, the use of digital technologies and virtual tools to enhance the educational experience, and the creation of new formats for practical classes. In conclusion, the authors summarize their study findings and discuss the potential implications of these changes for the future of choreographic education in higher education. They also highlight possible limitations and the necessity for further research in this area.
