Returning students!

A teaching video is required for Level III students.
A teaching video is optional for Level II students.


In order to successfully complete Level III, please submit a video of yourself teaching, then write a critique of yourself based on one of the handouts attached here.  While watching yourself teach is always painful (for everyone!), it can be one of the most important ways for you to improve your teaching.  In addition, it allows Levels instructors the ability to plan for effective use of class time. 

Ideally, this is due before your Level begins (e.g.. in the year before Level II begins, you videotape yourself applying the concepts from Level I).  If you do not complete it before the course starts, you can do it the following fall.  Please note that the purpose is not to be perfect -- teaching never is!

Level II

Record a lower primary grade, ideally Grade 1.  If you are not teaching this level, tape any beginning class.  The lesson should include at least one rhythmic and one melodic focus.  This may be preparation, presentation, or practice, depending on where you are in your curriculum.

Level III

Videotape a middle elementary grade.  If you are not teaching this level, tape any medium-level class. The lesson should include at least one rhythmic and one melodic focus.  This may be preparation, presentation, or practice, depending on where you are in your curriculum.
