MUSEP 2101 - Music Education in Theory and Practice 2A

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2022

This course builds upon the essential skills and understanding established through the Foundations of Music Education courses. In this course, students are introduced to a range of learning activities that will enable them to teach musical literacy, including aural and theory skills, in an engaging and structured manner. The students will develop their understanding of the fundamental links between various musical skills, such as sight reading, memorisation, aural acuity and theoretical understanding. They will explore integrated learning plans and teaching methods that maximise the development of general musicianship. The course includes a focus on the skills essential for expressive musical performance, including: concentrated listening, critical appraisal, stylistic awareness, tone production, and sense of phrasing. The course also explores various approaches that can be undertaken to help to maximise engagement with classical and symphonic music with students of all ages.

  • 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.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • 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.
