How Will We Know? Incorporating the National Core Music Ensemble Standards with the Model Cornerstone Assessments

Clinic Synopsis:

This clinic will combine the framework of the 2014 National Core Music Standards and their Model Cornerstone Assessments that can be embedded within ensemble instruction to inform authentic teaching practice, learning, and evaluation. An in-depth look at pre-requisite skills, suggested lessons, and aligned tasks and assessments that contribute to a true picture of students’ musical achievement at varied levels will be shared via lecture and group discussion.
