Portfolio Development

1 Credit.

Guidance in professional portfolio development. The result will be a professional portfolio which is an organized collection of materials which demonstrate the intern’s educational philosophy, knowledge of teaching materials, experience in teaching, documents for the job search/application process, and professional references. Audio and video recordings of teaching and performances will be retained for both reflection and demonstration of current teaching skill and musicianship. In addition, students will discuss employment opportunities, practice answering questions frequently used in the interview process and discuss how to effectively use their portfolio to gain a position as a studio instructor. Open to Pedagogy majors only.
