HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF MUSIC

METHODOLOGY
This is emphasised when students are assumed to have grasped the rudiments of music. Through their teaching practice in the third term of their first year and the first term of their second year, students are able to demonstrate how they link theory with practice. This serves to emphasise the methodology they would have done in Professional Studies.
RESEARCH
This is done by students who will be taking the subject as Main Study 1.
CONCLUSION
It is always hoped that at the end of the course the graduating students will have acquired basic knowledge, skills and attitude to build on so as to become the ideal music educator.
