Course Overview
The first three unites of this course will focus on showing you how to teach students about the development and history popular music, dating back to the 1950s. We will learn about a few different artists from each decade. Unfortunately, we will not be covering every artist from the decade, but each lesson will feature a list of the artists not covered in the lesson. You will pull from this list to complete your final project. In addition, each lesson will also provide examples of what is considered appropriate content and what is considered inappropriate content for each of the featured artists. At the end of each lesson, there will be a discussion question, followed by a brief quiz about the material. One test will be given at the end of the units, covering content from both the lessons in that unit. In the fourth unit, we will cover how to use Google Docs and Google Slides as a part of everyday General Music lessons. There will not be a test or quiz in Unit 4, as this is where you will work on your final project.
