Preparing Future Music Faculty

2.0 credits

All musicians participate in various forms of music teaching and learning. For those graduate students who desire to teach in a college or community music school, even on a part-time basis, this course will prepare you to teach effectively. During the course, you will begin to develop a teaching portfolio that will complement your performance portfolio. You will also explore ways to organize music content for learning, assess your students’ prior musical knowledge and experience, communicate expectations to your students, and speak knowledgeably about teaching with colleagues and administrators.
