The teacher will schedule a third of the time of all exercises in Modules 1 and 2 and Exercises 1-3 in Module 3 to exploration. In addition, all of Exercise 4 in Module 3 is dedicated to exploration.

There are many ways to explore. In this program, exploration is not intended to be an open-ended experience based on free associative and non-associative thinking across an undefined subject matter. Instead it is a guided activity linked to a specific exercise theme, purpose and duration.

Guided exploration example: "You are an explorer of the sounds you can make with your body and voice. For the next 20 minutes you will be working on your own/or in a group. You are going to concentrate on discovering all the sounds you can make with your voice, all the rhythms you can make while clapping your hands, stamping your feet, quiet sounds and loud sounds. I or a fellow student will record the sounds on a mini-disk. You will create many, many possibilities so that when you have finished exploring you can listen and assess your rhythms and sounds."
