The Core Pedagogical coursework required for this degree program includes:

• EDU 500 – Critical Pedagogy,
• EDU 504 – Principles of Professional Development,
• EDU 506 – Use of Technology for Professional Development,
• EDU 508 – Research Methods for Classroom Practitioners,
• EDU 510 – Educational Assessment,

Two Pedagogical electives were required and I choose to take

• Lit 501- Foundations of Literacy: Birth to Adolescence, and
• Lit 507 – Literacy and Learning in the Content Areas.

There were four courses required from my major content area, which is music. The four music courses, which I took were

• Beethoven,
• American Music,
• African American music in the Americas, and the
• History of Jazz and Rock.

I additionally, took two courses, which I found very interesting. They related to my thesis and although they were not required for my graduate degree I believe they were beneficial to my graduate studies. These two courses were:

• Introduction to Cognitive Science
• Cognitive Musicology

To have an understanding of what I have learned from SUNY Oswego,  I believe it might be interesting for you to know somethings about my background in education and in music.
