Teaching Strategies for Mus Ed

Catalog description

Historical objects offer us a concrete view into other times and places. In this course, we will study—and practice—effective strategies for teaching and learning directly from objects, whether they are works of art, historical artifacts, or scientific specimens. With both the physical and digital classroom in mind, we will focus on several student-centered, inquiry-based methods that allow for individual discovery and socially constructed learning. In addition, we will explore engagement activities that move beyond the question-and-answer format.
