Elementary School Teachers Explain Why They Do Not Use Creative Dance in Their Classrooms.
MacDonald, Colla Jean
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v37 n2 p157-66 Jun 1991

Barriers to implementation included lack of training and confidence, little support from administrators and policymakers, and lack of resources and facilities. (SV)
