Emphasis is placed on applying technique in the improvisational space of the cypher-a sacred circle for exchanging movement knowledge. This space embodies the theory of ritual and play, where ritual is the structure and play is the expressive exchange, ranging from collaborative to competitive. Focuses on cypher training and choreographic retention while exploring hip-hop dance as a cultural and artistic expression. Examine the historical, philosophical, and improvisational roots of Hip-Hop, tracing its lineage through African, Caribbean, and Afro-Latin cultures, as well as its connections to ragtime, swing, and rock n' roll in 20th- and 21st-century America. ### requirements text DANCE 115 ### credit offering ids None recorded. ### llm job id enrich-8b774950c2b6adfdc46d1b82 ### llm output id b4c01ce2e930600c8d5b5c72eafea83437ee46a44675816e8340c9fa6099aee7 ### llm model nvidia/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-NVFP4 ### llm model revision 1355db6a052410cfd62085d94b58866fd0f2c3c5 ### llm task version 14 ### llm search status valid ### llm summary DANCE 215 teaches safe, skilled hip-hop technique and improvisation within the cypher, exploring its cultural and historical roots. ### llm topics * Ritual and play theory * Historical and philosophical roots of Hip-Hop * Connections to ragtime, swing, and rock n' roll ### llm skills * Safe and skilled hip-hop dance execution * Improvisational technique in the cypher * Cypher training and choreographic retention ### llm assumed background * Foundational hip-hop dance technique and safety ### llm search phrases * hip hop dance technique * cypher improvisation * hip hop cultural history * DANCE 215 syllabus ### llm requirements status valid ### llm student summary status valid ### llm experience status insufficient\_evidence ### catalog variants None recorded. ### student summary #### context hash 9d8aa7d16b636c32a4294b9b5ab88587c94016f3ddef8d08ced0d425eb1fc55b #### course id DANCE 215 #### current instructors None recorded. #### difficulty workload None recorded. #### errors None recorded. #### historical context None recorded. #### message No course-specific reviews available #### offered false #### profile hash 5cb4dabf887cdbcd8c00d5a1312e10828b95c63f30bc3ea76aea199565390d02 #### quick take Recent recorded grades — Spring 2026: 3.95 GPA, 100.0% A/AB (n=11 letter grades). ```json { "citations": [ { "course_id": "DANCE 215", "run_id": "20260907T155543-ce3781c4", "source_record": { "entity_id": "31e47692-0d56-37c3-9ac5-29ef0e33028a", "file": "tables/observations.parquet", "kind": "grades", "source": "madgrades" }, "table": "grades_latest", "term_id": "1264", "type": "grade" } ] } ``` #### student experience None recorded. #### task hash 74fb0997943e888960bbc9e47db8c4fd12e4292d55c20509d8d89db6a9910f68 #### teaching history None recorded. #### term id 1272 #### term name 2026 Fall #### version 2 ### requirements #### nodes ```json [ { "children": [], "condition": null, "course": { "course_number": 115, "minimum_grade": null, "subjects": [ "DANCE" ], "timing": "prior" }, "evidence": "DANCE 115", "id": "n0", "kind": "course" } ] ``` #### notes None recorded. #### root n0 #### status parsed ### instructors None recorded. ### offerings None recorded. ### sections None recorded. ### grade instructors ```json [ { "instructor_uid": "instructor_a2c9ff5989de9474722ac09d", "source": "madgrades", "source_instructor_id": "6666561", "identity_basis": "source_id", "identity_status": "source_identified", "name": "OMARI CARTER", "email": null, "first_observed_at": "2026-09-06 23:14:58.172943+00:00", "last_observed_at": "2026-09-07 15:55:43.033547+00:00", "grade_statistics": { "gpa": 3.834, "graded": 190, "counts": [ 162, 16, 6, 1, 2, 0, 3 ], "sections": 22 }, "instructor_url": "/instructors/OMARI_CARTER--instructor_a2c9ff5989de9474722ac09d" } ] ``` ### grades ```json [ { "run_id": "20260907T155543-ce3781c4", "semester": "1272", "observed_at": "2026-09-07 15:55:43.033547+00:00", "course_id": "DANCE 215", "course_uid": "course_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105", "term_id": "1264", "term_name": "Spring 2026", "instructors": [ "Omari Carter" ], "a": 10, "ab": 1, "b": 0, "bc": 0, "c": 0, "d": 0, "f": 0, "satisfactory": 0, "unsatisfactory": 0, "credit": 0, "no_credit": 0, "passed": 0, "incomplete": 0, "no_work": 0, "not_reported": 0, "other": 0, "total": 11, "source_aliases": [ "DANCE 215" ] } ] ``` ### statistics #### gpa 3.955 #### graded 11 #### counts * 10 * 1 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 ### grade conflicts None recorded. ### evidence #### history * [/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/history/course\_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105-0.json](https://uwcourses.com/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/history/course_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105-0.json) #### traces * [/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/traces/course\_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105-0.json](https://uwcourses.com/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/traces/course_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105-0.json) #### results * [/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/results/course\_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105-0.json](https://uwcourses.com/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/results/course_6206084e79d6f852f1f6a105-0.json) ### revision e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349 ##
