This subject will examine the teaching of instrumental and vocal music from a number of perspectives. Areas of study and discussion will include the shared interests and experience of teachers within the group. The subject will also draw upon literature relating to a variety of pedagogical traditions, schools and techniques for comparative analysis and discussion. Important works of relevant repertoire will be used as a focus for intensive study. Students will have the opportunity to pursue their own interests and areas of specialisation in particular areas of pedagogy.
Intended learning outcomes
- Develop an overview of pedagogical approaches and techniques for performance teaching combined with an ability to evaluate their respective merits;
- Design a sequenced teaching program that addresses important areas of technique and interpretation;
- Understand a broad range of teaching approaches that can be used across a wide spectrum of levels and abilities;
- Demonstrate an enhanced capacity to undertake critical and independent research and to present findings and ideas in a scholarly fashion.
