Description:

This course is about the method and practice of teaching music through learner-centered practices and creative collaboration. It is a class about pedagogy - a particular pedagogy that can help students grow personally and musically using any variety of musical instruments and voice, while involved with music from a wide range of styles. This is a pedagogical approach that differs in significant ways from the traditional ensemble model that has characterized music education in the United States for the past one hundred years. The primary goal is to expand the possibilities for music offerings in the PK-12 schools.
