As a music major in college, I took various music history courses that have given me the foundations to teach this course. I am extremely passionate about music, and I enjoy analyzing music on a deep and thoughtful manner. I want to teach students how to connect music to broader concepts through lyrical interpretation and musical analysis. This class is meant to be engaging, thought-provoking, and fun! Lastly, I have also taught a similar course through another online learning platform. Thus, I have experience in online teaching and understand how to effectively navigate online teaching and online discussions.
No homework will be assigned, as this is a one-time course.
Class material and presentations are provided by the teacher. No additional materials are needed for this course.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
