Sociocultural Perspectives in Music Education
Course #: MUSIC 443
Description:
This course is intended to provide students with an opportunity to explore the sociological aspects of music teaching and learning. We will begin the semester with an introduction to sociological theory and an examination of social norms, order, power structure, and belonging. From there, we will delve into a critical examination of the connections between musical listening, learning, and the socially situated act of musical involvement. These initial explorations will serve as an entry point to thinking about music teacher identity and student's past, present, and future experiences as a student, teacher, musician, and human. The latter portion of the class will be devoted to exploring critical issues in the field ranging from power, privilege, class, and marginalized populations, to thinking about "whose music?" cultural capital and relevancy.
