Approaches to navigating the SACs and Rubrics for VCE Repertoire and Contemporary Music Performance
About this event:
In this webinar, experienced VCE Music teacher, Lynne Morton shares an approach to navigating the SACs and Rubrics for Repertoire and Contemporary Music Performance in the new VCE Music Study Design. Lynne taught at Belmont High School in Geelong and throughout her career she has typically taught combined VCE classes. The students in Lynne’s classes typically come with a wide range of prior musical experience, including those who do not have an instrumental teacher and have learnt via the ‘Youtube method’. This webinar will be particularly helpful for those new to teaching VCE Music. Her previous webinars for ASME (available on the ASME members section of the website) unpack the Study Design in detail including a semester outline, a weekly plan, typical activities, and an outline of the assessment tasks for each of the Outcomes.
The webinar will be delivered live via Zoom with time for Q&A. It will be recorded and available afterwards to ASME members in the members-only section of the ASME website along with previous webinars for VCE Music recorded by Lynne and Mark McSherry. Registration essential.
