MUSEP 7004 - Performance and Pedagogy IV B

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2023

This course seeks to give participants in-depth practical experience of pedagogically significant repertoire from intermediate to advanced levels through the preparation for and presentation of a recital. Students will develop their individual musicianship, interpretative skills, knowledge of stylistic conventions and technical skills. They will also further their understanding of how such skills can best be developed through methods of teaching and learning. They will explore the fundamental skills related to their specific instrument, and how such skills can be sequentially developed through technical exercises and selection of repertoire. Students will develop an understanding of the chief considerations that must be met to achieve a professional standard of performance and communication. Clear and detailed documentation in a reflective journal of activities including lesson observations, reflections, rehearsal and concert observations and attendance at Elder Conservatorium based activities

  • Assessment

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

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

    Assessment Summary
    25-minute recital Summative and Formative 60% 1,2,3, 4, 5
    Program Notes Summative and Formative 10% 2, 5, 6, 7
    Reflective Journal Log Summative and Formative 30% 1-8



    Assessment Related Requirements
    PREPARATION, PRACTICE AND REPERTOIRE EXPECTATIONS
    Students are expected to practise all repertoire, technical exercises and other material assigned by their teacher. Careful, consistent and regular practice is assumed. Students are expected to practise at least three+ hours per day.
    Students will be assigned technical exercises, etudes/studies, orchestral excerpts (if applicable), unaccompanied pieces and solo repertoire. It is their responsibility to schedule daily practice sessions to accommodate all of the above areas.
    LECTURE, TUTORIAL, WORKSHOP OR PRACTICALLY BASED COURSE PARTICIPATION AND ATTENDANCE EXPECTATIONS
    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. The penalties will be applied to the final total percentage mark for the year for the relevant component - ie after all other assessments have been completed and calculated. Arrival after the scheduled starting time or departure before the scheduled finishing time may, at the lecturer or Co-ordinator’s discretion, be regarded as an 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.

  • 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.
