The author details using role-playing in his "Music of the Long 20th Century" course, dividing students into characters to experience pivotal events like premieres. Students research characters to stage watershed moments, seeing history as imaginative rather than memorization. This practice-based approach engages students and challenges presumptions.
Team Sauron on Yezget Nas1lsinez's "The Myth of the Eagles"Christopher Smith
The document discusses Yezget Nas1lsinez's piece "The Myth of the Eagles", which premiered in Paris in 1922. The music of the piece was described as "hideous" by one critic but Nas1lsinez said it was best understood by children and animals. It is seen as influential on modernism and had an impact on Aaron Copland's American ballet works of the late 1930s through his connection with Nadia Boulanger, who knew both composers. The piece drew from primitivism, nationalism, and folklore but also caused some controversy.
This document outlines the course overview, goals, topics and requirements for MUHL5321, an ethnomusicology course. It provides definitions of ethnomusicology from reference texts and the course website. The study of music in cultural and social contexts is discussed. Historical influences including linguistics, anthropology and musicology are reviewed. Examples of early ethnomusicological fieldwork are presented to illustrate studying music within cultures. Students will observe and analyze a musical community firsthand for a practice fieldwork assignment. The course will also discuss historiography, methodologies, and conceptualizing fieldwork to define musical communities.

The document summarizes Dr. Christopher Smith's presentation on energizing students through participatory learning methods. Some key points discussed include:
- Drawing on vernacular pedagogies from places like West Africa that engage students through oral traditions, storytelling, imitation and other intuitive teaching modes.
- Teaching in ways that align with students' expert learning styles both ancient and modern, rather than solely lecture-based approaches.
- Exploiting patterns, memory, orality and other archetypal teaching methods to more effectively engage students in problem-solving and demonstration of concepts.
- Encouraging faculty to identify the archetypal narratives in their own disciplines and ways of linking teaching methods more

Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptxKavitha Krishnan
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Scene I. Enter Kent, Gloucester, and Edmund … Glou. Sir, this young fellow's mother could; whereupon she grew round-womb'd, and had indeed, sir, a son for her cradle ere she had a husband for her bed. Do you smell a fault? Kent. I cannot wish the fault undone, the issue of it being so proper. Glou. But I have, sir, a son by order of law, some year elder than this, who yet is no dearer in my account. Though this knave came something saucily into the world before he was sent for, yet was his mother fair, there was good sport at his making, and the whoreson must be acknowledged.

52. Expert musicianship is not the issue; most of these musics were originally intended for participation
Editor's Notes
You know there's awful lot to be said about this Irish traditional folk music and folk lore, because first of all, you have to learn it, and first you must learn the talk, and then you must learn the grip, and after that you must learn the truckly how, and then you have the whole lot, only just to keep on practicing it. Because Seamus Ennis knows far more about this than even the old folk lordy lordy themselves, because Seamus Ennis once met a little leprechauny truckly how, At the bottom of the garden path And at the gate that came up after that in the limeretty limeretty hill huckers, Long before the earthean throw, Long before the leprechaun erean, and long before the argy forrey, and that was in the deep pond doon, before the emerald isle was dropped 'blucck' in the water.

Metaphor, folklore, folk wisdom There were three men came out of the west Their fortunes for to try, And these three men made a solemn vow John Barleycorn must die. They've ploughed, they've sown, they've harrowed him in Threw clods upon his head, And these three men made a solemn vow John Barleycorn was dead. They let him lie for a very long time Till the rains from Heaven did fall, And little Sir John sprung up his head And so amazed them all. They've let him stand till Midsummer's day, Till he looked both pale and wan. And little Sir John's grown a long, long beard And so become a man. They've hired men with the scythes so sharp, To cut him off at the knee, They've rolled him and tied him by the waist, Serving him most barbarously. They've hired men with the sharp pitchforks, Who pricked him through the heart And the loader, he has served him worse than that, For he's bound him to the cart. They've wheeled him around and around a field, Till they came unto a barn, And there they made a solemn oath On poor John Barleycorn They've hired men with the crab-tree sticks, To cut him skin from bone, And the miller, he has served him worse than that, For he's ground him between two stones. And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl And his brandy in the glass And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl Proved the strongest man at last The huntsman, he can't hunt the fox Nor so loudly to blow his horn, And the tinker, he can't mend kettle nor pots without a little barley corn

That the ancient wisdom and oral/aural/vernacular traditions had their own literatures .
Don Niperi Septoe
That, like more prose/observation/literary traditions, those literatures effectively and precisely conveyed that information which the tradition itself believes to be essential.
History, locality, personal autobiography It oft-times has been told, that the British seamen bold Could flog the tars of France so neat and handy, Oh! But they never met their match, till the Yankees did them catch Oh, the Yankee boys for fighting are the dandy, Oh. The Guerriere, a frigate bold, on the foaming ocean rolled Commanded by proud Dacres, the grandee, Oh! With as choice a British crew as ever a rammer drew Could flog the Frenchmen two to one so handy, Oh! When the frigate hove in view, says proud Dacres to his crew, "Come clear the ship for action and be handy, Oh! To the weather-gage, boys, get her." And to make his men fight better Gave them to drink, gunpowder mixed with brandy, Oh! Then Dacres loudly cries, "Make this Yankee ship your prize, You can in thirty minutes, neat and handy, Oh! Twenty-five's enough, I'm sure, and if you'll do it in a score I'll treat you to a double share of brandy, Oh!" The British shot flew hot, Which the Yankees answered not Till they got within the distrance they called handy, Oh! "Now," says Hull unto his crew, "Let us see what we can do, If we take this boasting Briton we're the dandy, Oh!" The first broadside we poured carried her mainmast by the board Which made this lofty frigate look abandoned, Oh! Then Dacres shook his head, and to his officers said, "Lord! I didn't think those Yankees were so handy, Oh!" Our secon told so well that their fore and mizzen fell, Which doused the royal ensign neat and handy, Oh! "By George!" says he, "We're done!" And they fired a lee gun While the Yankees struck up Yankee Doodle Dandy, Oh! Then Dacres came on board to deliver up his sword. Tho'loth was he to part with it, it was so handy, Oh! "Oh! Keep your sword," says Hull, "For it only makes you dull, Cheer up, and let us have a little brandy, Oh! Now, fill your glasses full, and we'll drink to captain hull And so merrily we'll push around the brandy, Oh! Johnny Bull may boast his fill, let the world say what it will, The Yankee boys for fighting are the dandy, Oh!
That, particularly in the teaching of those exact traditions and given their longevity, it would be arrogant not to pay attention to those literatures
Oh! the French are on the sea," says the Sean van Vocht, "Oh! the French are on the sea," says the Sean van Vocht, "The French are in the Bay, they'll be here at break of day, And the Orange will decay," says the Sean van Vocht, "And the Orange will decay," says the Sean van Vocht. "And where will they have their camp?" says the Sean van Vocht, "And where will they have their camp?" says the Sean van Vocht. "On the Curragh of Kildare and the boys will all be there With their pikes in good repair." says the Sean van Vocht, "With their pikes in good repair." says the Sean van Vocht "And what will the yeomen do?" says the Sean van Vocht, "And what will the yeomen do?" says the Sean van Vocht, "What will the yeomen do but throw off the red and blue, And swear they will be true to the Sean van Vocht? And swear they will be true to the Sean van Vocht?" "Then what colour will be seen?" says the Sean van Vocht, "Then what colour will be seen?" says the Sean van Vocht, "What colour should be seen where our fathers' homes have been But our own immortal green? " says the Sean van Vocht, "But our own immortal green? " says the Sean van Vocht. "Will old Ireland then be free? " says the Sean van Vocht, "Will old Ireland then be free? " says the Sean van Vocht, "Old Ireland shall be free from the centre to the sea; Then hurrah for liberty," says the Sean van Vocht.
That these literatures may provide relevant insights into teaching in very different cultural/historical contexts, and even in other topic areas. These modes of teaching were employed, not only for the “fine arts,” but also for history, medicine, law, theology, and so on.

So Hamlet's got the proof that Claudius Gived his dad the dose The only problem being now that Claudius knows he knows So while Hamlet tells his ma that her New husband's not a fit man Uncle Claud puts out a contract with The English king as hit man Then when Hamlet killed Polonius The concealed corpus delecti Was the King's excuse to send for An English hempen necktie With Rosencrantz and Gildenstern To make sure he got there But Hamlet jumped the boat and put The finger straight on that pair Meanwhile Laertes heard his dad had been Stabbed thru the arras He came racing back to Elsinore Toute-suite, Hot foot from Paris And Ophelia with her dad killed by The man she wished to marry After saying it with flowers She commited hari-kari Hamlet, Hamlet, there's no messin' Hamlet, Hamlet, Learned his lesson Hamlet, Hamlet, Yorick's crust Convinced him that men, good or bad, At last must come to dust Then Laertes lost the place and was Demanding retribution But the king said, keep the head and I'll provide you a solution And he arranged a sword-fight with The interested parties With a blunted sword for Hamlet and A sharp sword for Laertes And to make things double sure The old belt and braces line He fixed up a poison sword tip and A poisoned cup of wine And the poisoned sword got Hamlet But Laertes went and muffed it Cause he got stabbed himself and he Confessed before he snuffed it Then Hamlet's mummy drank the wine and As her face turned blue Hamlet says, "I quite believe The King's a baddy through and through Incestuous, treacherous, damned Dane He said, to be precise, And made up for hesitating by Killing Claudius twice He stabbed him with the sword and forced The wine between his lips Then he said, the rest is silence And he cashed in all his chips They fired a volley over him that Shook the topmost rafter And then Fortinbras, knee-deep in Danes Lived happily ever after Hamlet, Hamlet, end of story Hamlet, Hamlet, very gory Hamlet, Hamlet, I'm away If you think this is boring You should read the bloody play Copyright Adam McNaughtan
That we might find it fruitful to employ more nuanced and supple paradigms for “literacy”; that as teachers we might benefit by exploiting “new” literacies even as we consider remediation to teach “old” ones.
That, given the very long history of these methods’ applicability in pre-literate cultures, students can still respond viscerally or intuitively even in the absence of prior experience with them.
e.g. “Once upon a time…”
