Curriculum Design types • Materials-centered • Series text, method book • Content-centered • Concert literature • Method approach • Orff, Kodály • Experience-based/constructivism
Experience-based Constructivist Approach • Emphasizes learning as a social process • Students make (construct) their own meanings from experiences. • Student centered • Not teacher centered
Four techniques to consider • Modality • Pacing • Size • Color
Modality • Aural • Visual • Kinesthetic • Rondo Alla Turka
Pacing • How much is being covered? • How can less be covered by some? • How can coverage be elongated?
Size • How big and/or long is the musical work? • Big= • harmonic texture, instrumentation, reading difficulty, range/technical difficulty • Size of print, amount of information on a line/score • Hush • Long= length of time
Color • Black & white can be hard to process • Color coding can assist in the chunking process • I Did It
So how do you determine if learning occurred? • Assessment of objectives • Objective=What will be learned in this lesson? • Assessment=Did this get learned? How do you know? • More on all of this when we cover lesson planning
Which brings us to curriculum planning… • Curriculum is the culmination of all your desired objectives • What do you want them to learn over the course of a month? A year? K-12? • Your curriculum strategy will determine much of this • Materials-based • Content-centered • Method approach • Constructivist
So, what were the curricular goals (long term) in these lessons? • I Did It • Hush • Rondo alla Turka
What were the objective goals (short term) in these lessons? • I Did It • Hush • Rondo alla Turka
IUP lesson plan format • Student teaching handbook sez…. • Header • Rationale/background • Objectives • Concept • Resources/materials • Procedures • Evaluation
Header • Your name • Grade of class/subject • Estimated amount of time
Rationale/background • Rationale: “Why bother?” • Relevance of lesson topic • Materials/content cnetered/meothod/constructivitst philosophies will make a big difference here. • Background: “What do students know?” • Developmentally appropriate • Known (what they already know) • New know (what they will learn after this lesson) • This may need to ‘flex’ for special needs students
KNOWN What do students already know? Where does the lesson developmentally start? What point in the spiral? NEW KNOWN What little piece of a big concept will students learn? This will begin as the ‘unknown’ somewhere in the lesson. Sensory experience through unknown for learning. More than IUP asks for….
How do you know what they know? • National Standards can help • School District Curriculum can help • Scope & Sequence overviews can help
Lesson objectives • Sometimes sub-titled • ‘behavioral objectives’ • ‘aesthetic objectives’ • ‘performance objectives’ • What will happen today if all goes well? • Can be good indication of developmental inappropriateness • How many things can be done in a day?
Resources: Songs/pieces Texts you might refer to Websites People you contact Materials Stuff you need to remember to bring/prep Instruments Manipulatives Artifacts CD Resources/Materials
Concept • The FERGUSON BIGGIE!!!!!! • Melody • Harmony • Rhythm • Form • Timbre • Expression • Tempo • Articulation • dynamics
Procedures • 3 parts to IUP’s plan • Introduction: how will topic be introduced? • Lesson body: Procedures/activities to bring about learning the topic • Closure: What to do to signal the end of the lesson/recap learning • In music plans….these 3 divisions • Often feels artificial
Evaluation • How can the teacher be assured students have a ‘new known’? • Quiz • Assessment
What might this look like? • Ferguson plan • Boardman plan • Short-hand plan • Lots of other formats • Series Text plans • Search and destroy mission
