MUSSUPST 1002 - Musicianship 1B

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2024

This course aims to develop a fluent and functional understanding of musical concepts and conventions related primarily to Baroque, Classical and Romantic music of the 18th-19th Centuries, as well as to 20th century popular music. A range of theoretical concepts will be investigated through the study of selected musical scores. Students will be expected to listen to works and analyse written scores. Topics to be explored include revision of the basics of tonality and analytical conventions, development of skills and understanding in diatonic and chromatic harmony, including part writing, voice leading, chord functions, secondary functions, harmonic analysis, and analysis of music in binary and ternary forms. Functional skills will be further addressed through assessment and tutorial work involving part-writing, composition, sight-singing, and/or transcription.

Specific Course Requirements

There are no additional course-specific requirements.

The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Assessment Summary

Assessment Task	Task Type	Weighting	Learning Outcome
Assignment 1	Formative and Summative	15%	3, 5
Test 1	Formative	15%	1, 2, 4
Assignment 2	Formative and Summative	20%	1, 2, 4, 5
Assignment 3	Formative and Summative	20%	1, 2, 4, 5
Test 2	Summative	20%	1, 2, 4

Assessment Related Requirements

Attendance and participation expectations are as follows:

Lectures: Although attendance at all lectures is expected, leave applications will not be required to be submitted to the lecturers due to logistical reasons. Students are advised that poor attendance at lectures will very likely have a significant negative impact on their ability to complete assessment tasks. Lectures will be recorded and made available in MyUni.

Tutorials: Full attendance at tutorials is expected and students will be required to attend at least 8 of 10 tutorials. With the exception of certified medical absences, each tutorial absence beyond the permitted 2 will result in 5 marks being deducted from the student's full course result.

Exam Attendance: All students are required to attend the Course Exam (on the date set by the Examinations Office). No exceptions will be made except on certified medical grounds or on professional/compassionate grounds if approved by the coordinator well in advance of the scheduled exam.

If you are ill on the day of the Course Exam: You should not sit the course exam if you are ill, both because you could infect others and because you will likely not perform at your best. You should visit a doctor and obtain a medical certificate for the day of the test/exam, required for medical replacement assessments. You should also notify the coordinator at your soonest opportunity to request a medical replacement assessment. Requests for medical replacement assessments will only be considered if the coordinator is contacted within a day of the missed test or exam.

Assessment Detail

Assignment 1: A brief exercise related to either music analysis or composition - 15% weighting
Test 1: 1-hour paper-based test will cover material presented in Weeks 1-5 - 15% weighting
Assignment 2: A theory and analysis assessment - 20% weighting
Assignment 3: A theory and analysis assessment - 20% weighting
Test 2: a 2-hour test to be held during class time in SWOTVAC - 30% weighting.

Submission

Final versions of assignments may be produced in neat, dark pen or pencil, or may be submitted as .pdf using music notation software such as Sibelius or Finale. Assignments must be submitted in the Assignment Box located at the Faculty of Arts office, Napier ground level.

Late assignment policy:
Late written assignments will be accepted to a maximum of 7 days late with a late penalty of 2 marks per calendar day applied.

Extensions without penalty may be granted when supporting documentation can be provided and then, and only then, by arrangement with the course lecturer prior to the due date and time. Extensions will not be granted under any other circumstance. To apply for an extension, use the 最新糖心Vlog's Application for Assessment Extension: /student/exams/forms-for-students

Student Feedback

The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
