MUS 413 Teaching Contemporary and Culturally Responsive Music in Schools
This course is designed for students to study the role and nature of music courses in elementary and especially secondary schools through the context of culturally responsive pedagogical approaches to music education. These approaches include contemporary music ensemble construction, basic songwriting/recording, and the study of music and music pedagogy from non-dominant cultures. It expands upon our traditional framework of understanding of what it means to be a music educator, and what it means to be musically educated, and emphasizes current thought and future possibilities with regard to school music programs.
