MSMUS 445 — Practicum in Classroom Pedagogy

1 credit
Fall
Alice Jones, John Popham

Practicum in Classroom Pedagogy provides training and support to current Community Engagement Teaching Fellows. The seminar explores teaching and learning strategies, curriculum design, social-emotional learning, classroom management techniques, and digital pedagogy, as well as culturally responsive and anti-ableist teaching practices. Students will develop their skills as artist-educators through in-class presentations and discussions; workshops on syllabus creation, lesson planning, and group instrumental instruction; and regular teaching observations by Community Engagement staff, professional teaching artists, and music educators. Additionally, students will develop key components of their teaching portfolio, including sample lesson plans, a teaching philosophy statement, and digital educational content. Practicum in Classroom Pedagogy is required for all current Community Engagement Morse, Concert, and McCabe Teaching Fellows.
