Course Philosophy and Pedagogical Design

An effective music educator in the secondary school must possess a variety of pedagogical skills
to meet the requirements of the multifaceted music curriculum. In addition to directing
performance ensembles (e.g., band, choir, orchestra), a majority of secondary music educators
are expected to develop and implement standards-based courses that provide opportunities for all
secondary students to experience music. The purpose of this course is to provide you
opportunities for you to review various pedagogical methods and the research literature and
apply these concepts in diverse classroom experiences to prepare for your future career.

The required and suggested texts for this course are important resources for your development as
a music educator. The required course text, Teaching in the Secondary School, focuses primarily
on methods to be successful in the music classroom. Charles Hoffer, author of the text, is a
former president of the National Association for Music Education and Professor of Music
Education at the University of Florida with experience working with numerous secondary school
programs. To provide additional insight on planning and working within the secondary school, I
encourage you to review Garcias Contexts of Teaching: Methods for Middle and High School
Instruction and Kellough & Kelloughs Secondary School Teaching: A Guide to Methods and
Resources. In addition to the assigned reading (packets) in class, I also expect that you are
researching various music education periodicals to find additional methods to enhance all of your
course projects.

Class instruction will focus primarily on in-class activities and demonstrations, the discussion of
assigned readings, and teaching presentations (course projects) to peers and secondary school
students in your practicum placement. Class exercises and discussions are intended to clarify and
reinforce the course content to enable individuals to contribute to experiential knowledge. You
are expected to reference the assigned readings to support your views on various issues discussed
in class.

The main purpose of the course is to bring students to a satisfactory level of competency in
regard to the following:

understanding and application of appropriate and effective instructional practices in line
with the National Standards in Music Education and ESOL Standards
an acquired repertoire of effective instructional practices in classroom and rehearsal
settings
a proactive approach to classroom management in various secondary music class settings
a working knowledge of the administrative procedures which attend the development and
maintenance of a well-founded secondary music program

Responsibility of the Students

Course Projects
All course projects are to be typewritten unless otherwise noted. In cases where specific format
has not been prescribed for the project, the student is to create a format that gives a well-ordered
and professional appearance. Since an important aspect of class instruction is derived from the
discussion of projects, projections submitted late will be accepted within 48 hours of the due
date, minus two full letter grades. Projects will not be accepted beyond this 48-hour extension.
Course projects are designed to focus on the professional application of course information. It is
expected that considerable care will be taken in the preparation and presentation of each project.
It is also required that as concerns arise in class preparations, you make an appointment with Dr.
Seybert to discuss your project. Please plan ahead.

Code of Academic Conduct:
Seton Hill University expects that all its students will practice academic honesty and ethical
conduct. The University regards plagiarism, cheating on examinations, falsification of papers,
non-sanctioned collaboration, and misuse or illegal use of library material published or
unpublished as violations of academic honesty.

Academic Integrity Policy:
If a faculty member believes a student has been intentionally academically dishonest for
example, with cheating, plagiarism, assisting others with dishonesty the faculty member is
obligated to file an Academic Dishonesty Report Form with the Office of Academic Affairs. [For
complete statement of Policy, see GriffinGate DocumentsAcademic Affairs--Academic
Integrity Policy].

Disability Statement:
If you have a disability that may require consideration by the instructor, you should contact Terri
Bassi-Cook, the Director of Disability Services at 724-838-4295 or tbassicook@setonhill.edu
mailto: tbassicook@setonhill.edu and/or disabilityservices@setonhill.edu
mailto:disabilityservices@setonhill.edu as soon as possible to develop a plan of accommodation.
You should provide the instructor with a copy of your accommodation plan and schedule a
meeting so that you can be supported in an informed manner. It is not necessary to disclose to
your instructor the nature of your disability. If you need accommodations for successful
participation in class activities prior to your appointment at the Disability Services Office, you
should offer information in writing to your instructor which includes suggestions for assistance
in participating in and completing class assignments.

Academic Engagement and Class Attendance:
Students must fully engage in the learning process, are expected to attend all class meetings, and
are held responsible for the full content of each course of study.

A responsible academic life implies systematic preparation in all course work. Students must
devote sufficient time for adequate class preparation. A minimum of two hours outside of class
for every hour the course meets is a common guideline.
SMU 331: Music in Secondary School/Practicum Spring 2014



12

Each course instructor articulates in the course syllabus a course outline and required readings
and/or assignments which must be completed prior to attendance. The syllabus also describes the
teaching/learning environment required in the class (laboratory, studios, experiential exercises,
collaborative work, discussion, and lecture). Overall course assessment commonly includes
participation and attendance.

The University faculty and administrative support participation in intercollegiate sports, theatre
productions, music recitals, conferences, workshops, and other co-curricular activities; however,
it is always the students responsibility to negotiate a way to receive information and/or materials
distributed in class. Students must understand that, depending on the course design and
requirements, it may not be possible to make up a missed class session. The student must
negotiate any absence from a class for participation in such events with the instructor prior to the
absence from class.

Students who miss a class because of illness or personal emergency must contact the instructor
before the class meeting. Depending on the course design and requirements it may not be
possible for a student to make up a missed class session.

Saving Course Assignments:
In order to fulfill the requirements of the liberal arts curriculum, students must save major
assignments completed in this course, so that they can successfully argue in the capstone liberal
arts course, Senior Integrative Seminar, that they have met the University Learning Objectives.

Project Descriptions

Secondary Methods Practicum
The field experiences will take place in a secondary instrumental program in this area. You are
required to complete the appropriate form for EACH observation and if necessary, a reflective
self-evaluation for each teaching episode in the classroom. There will be a minimum of TEN (i.e.
twenty-hours) school visitations for this course.

Components of the Grade: Attendance, Field Experience Report, Journal Entries, Teaching
Videos, Student Interviews and Self-Reflections.

Attendance
If you must be absent from any of your school visitations due to illness or emergency, you must
inform the people affected by your absence (i.e., Dr. Seybert, placement teacher and carpool
members, if applicable). Please discuss the situation with Dr. Seybert during the next class
meeting to find another schedule another field experience.

Privacy Issues
Please be cognizant of the importance of respecting the privacy of the children and teachers
observed. Avoid discussing classroom scenarios that might be embarrassing to teachers, parent,
or children, or that might include sensitive information concerning a child or family. During
class discussions or in journal reflections, use pseudonyms. Use professional judgment when
discussion students and situations at your field experience site.

Deportment
You will be viewed and judged as an adult by students, parents, and teachers. Please plan ahead
and dress conservatively and professionally. Please do not wear jeans or hats. Do not chew gum.
Be polite and considerate to every person that you encounter including the principal, secretaries,
custodians, teacher assistants, and parents. Be sure to arrive a minimum of 15 minutes prior to
your scheduled visitation. Please continue the tradition of representing yourself and Seton Hill
University in a professional manner.


Daily Field Experience Report
A Daily Field Experience Report is to be completed for each day of field experience. The reports
are intended to be a general summary of your days activity in the elementary school. Additional
pages may be added if necessary.

Practicum Journal
The purpose of making reflective journal comments is to focus attention on the importance of
reflective thought as a means of evaluating ones professional practices, on a daily basis. A
journal entry should be made after each field experience. Your comments should include
reactions to lesson planning, classroom/rehearsal teaching, and the complementary experiences
of teaching (e.g., observations of individual students, relationship with the cooperating teacher,
relationship with other teachers and administrators, and the overall social environment of the
SMU 331: Music in Secondary School/Practicum Spring 2014



15
school.). The writing style of the journal entries may be conversational and informal in nature.
Journal writing will be evaluated in terms of content quality and quantity.

Technology Project: Review of Music Software and Applications
Provide a clear and concise summary of a minimum of two software packages and three apps for
a mobile tablet and/or smart phone. The summary consists of answers to the questions listed in
Guidelines for Evaluating Music Software and a Sample Product Evaluation Form for
Technology-Assisted Instruction in Music. Please include any additional information that might
assist you and your colleagues in the future. Please provide copies of this assignment for all
members of the class.

Instrumental Methods Practicum Portfolio (Online)
This purpose of this portfolio is to serve as the basis for the organization of your continuing
education information a volume to which material may be added. The regular and systematic
updating of your professional knowledge is of utmost importance to your best instructional
practice the best care of your students. Continuing education is a fact of life for educators who
exemplify the highest standards of educational practice. The organization and maintenance of
continuing education information, be it from research journals/conference presentations, or
personal creative activity, is a component of every professionals library.

You will be expected to create an online website with all of the information for this portfolio.
Please REVISE all of the assignments with my suggestions before placing any document online.
I recommend that you use Weebly (http://www.weebly.com) to create your website. I also
suggest that you keep hard copies of all documents for your future reference. Please plan ahead.

The Course Portfolio is to be divided into the following tabs online:

Syllabus and Course Schedule
Weekly notes and handouts
Course Projects (in chronological order)
Sections of personal interest (e.g., technology, inclusion)
Secondary Methods Practicum: include materials pertaining to your Secondary Methods
Guided Field Experience (i.e. all lesson plans, videos of your teaching presentations).

Professional Society Memberships
As a music education major at Seton Hill University you are required to be an ACTIVE member
in the collegiate NAfME chapter (this means that you are expected to attend ALL of the chapter
meetings this semester), which represents all phases of music education at all academic levels.
