Teaching Music History with Your Mouth Shut
Abstract
As I prepared recently to teach a seminar for doctoral students on how to teach undergraduate music history I came face to face with my reservations about traditional teaching of these subjects. The book Teaching with your Mouth Shut by Donald Finkel seemed to me to offer a compelling way to approach undergraduate teaching that is intellectually sound and ethically appealing and caused me to change my approach to teaching the seminar.
