Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this research is the current positioning of dances in curricula as pedagogical discourses in all educational levels of N. Macedonia as well as reactions and interest of students during the performing of dances as a intermediate tool for cultural recognition in higher education studies in the country and beyond. Methods: The teaching methods of movement: analytical, synthetic and mixed method are used. In a period of 10 years (2011-2021), in collaboration with Faculties of Physical Education in the country and beyond we applied dances of different ethnicities in order to inspect the reactions and interest in foreign cultures through dances. Results: The positive feedback and interest by students of university level at home and abroad in knowing of foreign dances and cultures was what we expected for intercultural respect and tolerance. Conclusion and recommendations: We can conclude that the existing curricula at all levels of education need changes and modifications according to contemporary needs, as well as that dances in the curriculum of all educational levels to be transferred from the national or monocultural framework to the international or multicultural ones. This is the only way that dances may play the role as an intercultural tool for respect and tolerance between cultures.
