Below are the details and examples. Please make sure you use your own wording not just copying and pasting the
example.
Intro/Opening Paragraph:
Performance Information: title of work, company, choreographer, and dancers (when appropriate), the date you
saw the performance and the name of the theater (if applicable) plus a brief overview.
Ø Briefly describe who, what, where, and when.
Example for video or virtual performance:
I watched Global Motion performance that was streamed online on November 30, 2020. There were six dance
works presented, each about different feelings and unrelated to each other. These six pieces were Philippines
dance “Remember” choreographed by Toni Pasion, Tahitian dance “E Revi” choreographed by Keali’i
Ceballos, … and so on”
Paragraph 2-4:
Discuss 3 pieces in depth. Briefly state why you liked it or disliked it. Make sure to give specific examples to
validate your opinion of why you felt that way.
Ø Context: provides history when needed, to help the reader understand the value of the work.
Ø Descriptive language: describe what you saw- themes, content.
Ø Personal Perspective: how you as the reviewer responded to the video, and supporting examples to WHY you
had the reaction.
Ø Apply any applicable information and/or theories from this course: you may recognize a style or genre of
movement that we studied and choose to reference it when appropriate. For example: the theories on gender,
sexuality, other social issues.
Paragraph 5:
Conclusion: briefly state what you learned from this experience in the humanities. Was this what you had
expected and why? Was this a show you would recommend to others and why?

Notes on using Chat GPT:
• Please use Chat GPT with discretion and only use it to help with grammatical errors, typos and punctuation.
• Don’t use Chat GPT to write your paper. ChatGPT technically doesn’t come up with an original idea but
rather puts together a collection of information from the internet, including websites, books, news articles,
and more. Therefore, if you use ChatGPT to write your paper, Turnitin will see that as plagiarism.
• Turnitin is installed for plagiarism review.
• Paper with a plagiarism score of 10% or more will not be accepted. Note on Work Cited:
If you cite information from any sources, please put the citation in your paper and then write source of your
citation at the bottom of your paper. This includes citing information from the show’s program book, such as:
the name of dancers, choreographers, musicians, etc. For example:
