This course will help music instructors understand more about feedback and how it is effectively used in the music theory classroom, how to connect individual music concepts with real compositions and how to use technology to assist with music analysis instruction.  The topics of feedback and evaluation, music analysis, music composition, and use of technology in the music classroom are included.  There are three units:  1. Types of feedback in the music classroom, 2. Composition analysis and evaluative feedback and 3. Using technology with music analysis.  Each unit will address related topics through activities such as: readings, discussion, choosing/analyzing compositions to fit music theory curriculum, creating feedback and evaluation criteria, and using music software.
