Book excerpt: In ¿Assessing Music Performance¿A Valid System for Measuring Student Achievement and Growth,¿ Kevin McNulty, Sr. brings together his many years teaching band and orchestra and his professional judging career that spans over forty years. This breakthrough work gives instrumental and choral directors a solid philosophical basis for assessing performance students, using a performance-based system as the primary means of grading rather than systems used on other subjects, including general music. McNulty contends that only way to accurately measure the desired outcomes of music performance is through the prism of a music-performance teacher¿s background and experience as a musician, and not simply against a list of criteria or an extraneous written exam. Furthermore, while other disciplines in schools use rating almost exclusively, his system supports the notion that rating and ranking are required in music performance evaluation. Ranking not only establishes program standards but also provides distinction, fine-tunes teacher tolerance, provides data for seating and ensemble placement, allows for program measurement, and facilitates the escalation of performance standards year-to-year. ¿Assessing Music Performance¿A Valid System for Measuring Student Achievement and Growth¿ is a ¿must have¿ for all music directors seeking a valid way to grade students and answer the call for all subjects to measure what they teach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessment is central to ensemble music. Yet, teachers do not always have the expertise to harness its potential to improve rehearsals and performances, and promote and document student learning. Written specifically for band, choir, and orchestra teachers at all levels, this book contains all of the information necessary to design and use assessment in a thriving music classroom. The first section addresses foundations such as learning targets, metacognition, and growth mindset. Assessment jargon such as formative assessment, summative assessment, Assessment for Learning, self and peer assessment, and authentic assessment is clarified and illustrated with music examples. Readers will learn practical strategies for choosing which concepts to assess, which methods to use, and how to use results to provide accurate and effective feedback to students. The second section brings assessment fundamentals into the music room. Filled with practical advice, each chapter examines a different facet of musicianship. Sample assessments in all performance areas are provided, including music literacy, fundamentals and technique, terminology, interpretation, evaluation and critique, composition and improvisation, beliefs and attitudes, and more. There is an entire chapter devoted to tips for applying assessment and feedback strategies in rehearsals, which can result in a fresh and effective approach to performance preparation. The final section is an examination of grading practices in music classes. Readers will gain information about ensemble grades that communicate what students know and are able to do, rather than whether they remembered their black socks. A variety of approaches, including Standards-Based Grading, are evaluated in light of music teachers' unique situations. The book concludes with ways for music educators to take their first steps toward implementing these strategies in their own teaching, including the use of instructional technology. Assessing like an expert is possible, and this book is just what teachers need to get started.
