MUSEP 7003 - Performance and Pedagogy IV A

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2021

This course seeks to give participants in-depth practical experience of pedagogically significant repertoire from elementary and intermediate levels through the preparation and presentation of a lecture/demonstration. It is expected participants will perform illustrative extracts of a substantial nature to a high standard with a well-balanced, lucid commentary covering points of pedagogical significance, including a viva voce. Participants are required to underpin their lecture/demonstration through the agency of good quality program notes. This course allows students to reflect on their own areas for personal development, alongside developing their awareness of sequential learning on their instrument. Students will explore how to create effective practice routines to meet the demands of various skills and challenges and will deepen their ability to analyse and interpret repertoire. Students will also develop their skills as communicators, both verbally and through musical performances and participate in performance classes. Clear and detailed documentation in a Teaching Log/Portfolio of activities including lesson observations, reflections, rehearsal and concert observations and attendance at Elder Conservatorium performance-based activities.

Learning & Teaching Activities

Learning & Teaching Modes

One-to-one lessons prepare students for intensive and focused individual practice and preparation of general instrumental/vocal repertoire and exercises, plus pedagogically significant works of elementary to intermediate levels of difficulty. They also allow for assessment of progress made since the previous lesson.

Students are also encouraged to explore extended skills and knowledge through attendance at and participation in master classes, workshops and concerts as appropriate

Workload

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

Small Group Discovery Experience

The schedule of 1:1 individual lessons enables technical and musical issues to be explored, and short-term and long-term goals to be designed in order to target individual needs.

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

25-minute lecture-demonstration Summative and Formative 60% 1 - 8
Program Notes Summative 10% 2, 3, 4, 6
Reflective Log Journal Summative and Formative 30% 1-8

Active and positive participation in 100% of required lectures, tutorials, workshops or other practically based courses is expected.

LEAVE Sick Leave, Compassionate Leave or Professional Development Leave may, upon application using the relevant Leave of Absence form, be approved by the course coordinator or relevant staff member. (See Leave descriptors in the Conservatorium’s Participation and Attendance Policy for details.)

PENALTY Although active and positive participation in 100% of required lectures, tutorials, workshops and practically based classes is expected, any student who attends less than 100% of required classes without approved Leave will receive a 2% penalty for each unapproved absence.

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.
