PEDAGOGY: CREATING COURSE CURRICULUM

One of the requirements for my MSRA program was to create a course in music education from scratch using a step-by-step process, with each week focused on a different aspect of the development process. All of the materials necessary for class (i.e. a syllabus, coursework, grading rubrics, etc.) go into a final 'dossier' that shows a ready-made course that could be taught at an undergraduate level.

The above document delineates the requirements for grad students to create an entire semester's worth of course content.

An overview of a mock exam for a digital music undergraduate course, including explanation and context for each correct answer. This is something I always wished my teachers had the time to do with students after an exam. There was often simply not enough time, or low priority for instructors to recap if half of the students tested well. This isn't a hard task for a teacher to pre-bake into their lesson, and can be beneficial for students who may still be struggling with the course's content.

The entire course, along with modules, examples and rubrics for learning can be found at the link below.
