Teacher Education Licensure Program Music Education — Multi-Age — Bachelor of Music Education Statement of Purpose The Bachelor of Music Education degree with a major in Music Education – Multi-Age prepares students to teach vocal, instrumental, or general music in grades K–12 in public and Christian schools. Two tracks, choral and instrumental, are available. The Bachelor of Music Education degree will provide the graduate with all the skills, knowledge, and competencies prerequisite for state certification and employment in music education. Program Objectives After completing a Bachelor of Music Education degree at Cedarville, the student will: • Demonstrate mastery of the grade/age level content and pedagogy related to Multi-Age Music Education. • Demonstrate the ability to plan, instruct and assess students in a classroom setting. • Identify and recall current trends, curricula, and methodologies used in music education. • Articulate a working philosophy of music education. Because of the specific, sequential course requirements involved, completion of the program in four years requires extremely careful planning. Failure to take courses in their sequential order may result in a fifth year for degree completion. Students should plan to be enrolled in summer school classes at least one summer to complete course requirements in four years.
