Description

The Teacher's Manual is available separately as a CD-ROM and includes PDF files for the following: Syllabus, a unit-by-unit Course Plan, four Exams with Answer Keys, and a Listening Plan. Appendices include a Listening Selection Chart and a Listening Progress Form. Although not absolutely necessary, this does provide some nice features and gives the course a little more cohesive "feel." The publisher recommends the addition of the Teacher's Manual especially if taking the course for credit. Please note that this is not included in the course set (#50020). ~ Janice

Category Description for Professor Carol's Discovering Music

The Discovering Music course combines music history (learning about composers) with music appreciation (learning about their music) and shows how they interweave with as well as impact the intricate fabric of western culture. The scope of the course is breathtaking – a survey of 300 years (right before 1600 to the beginning of WWI) of Western Music and Arts. The author, Carol Reynolds, is a well-loved professor of music history who supplies students with an abundance of primary and secondary sources and encourages her students to learn from them.

In the revised and expanded 2nd edition, course components include a set of 8 DVDs, a spiral-bound Workbook, a Textbook and access to online music and other resources. These are all included in the Set. The Workbook provides lists of key fig­ures, timelines of notable dates, vocabulary, projects, viewing guides, quizzes, and more. The Textbook is 235 pages with lessons to read, vocabulary, lists of “Who’s Who,” and a glossary. The Teacher Manual is recommend­ed if taking the course for credit. The Teacher’s Manual is no longer available in print, but can be downloaded from the author’s site for a small fee. Featured musical selections that are referenced in the course materi­als are available for listening online.
