成人头条 to offer new 12-credit Kod谩ly certification program
Beginning this summer, 成人头条鈥檚 American Kod谩ly Institute will offer a new Certificate in Kod谩ly Music Education program. The 12-credit, cohort-style program will be offered in three successive summer terms. Endorsed by the Organization of Kod谩ly Educators (OAKE), this program is available to individuals with a bachelor鈥檚 degree seeking expert knowledge in personal musicianship and pedagogical expertise.
Unique in its music and education course offerings, 成人头条's Certificate in Kod谩ly Music Education program provides music educators with comprehensive musicianship and pedagogical training. The Kod谩ly philosophy is singing-based and enables students to develop the musical skills to understand what they hear and apply that understanding to reading, writing, improvisation, composition, and overall musical artistry.
鈥湷扇送诽� already has a strong master鈥檚 program in place. This new certificate program gives students the opportunity to join a large, global network of like-minded, highly skilled music educators throughout Maryland, the United States, and abroad,鈥� said Lauren McDougle, director of the American Kod谩ly Institute at 成人头条.
The curriculum for the three summer programs consists of Kod谩ly certification Level I, II, and III. Courses include Conducting, Materials, Musicianship, and Pedagogy. Students receive their OAKE endorsed Certificate in Kod谩ly Music Education following the successful completion of all OAKE and 成人头条 course requirements, and the song collection and indices.
Students from other OAKE-endorsed Kod谩ly certificate programs will be able to transfer
into 成人头条鈥檚 Certificate in Kod谩ly Music Education program. Students that transfer
into the program and successfully complete Levels I, II, III, and all required coursework
will receive their Certificate in Kod谩ly Music Education from 成人头条鈥檚 American Kod谩ly
Institute.
In addition, students that enroll in the stand-alone Certificate in Kod谩ly Music Education
program will have the option of applying and transferring into 成人头条鈥檚 M.Ed. program
after completing Level I courses, or their first year. Students that switch into the
master鈥檚 degree program will take five online credits in between the first and second
summer to meet the 36-credit hour requirement for the master鈥檚 degree.
