Post 3A Academic Challenges in 2020




Well today I’m going to talk about my career and the changes I would like to make to the programme.
I’m studying musical interpretation in trombone since 2013. During the first year, I was only taught to play my instrument and Musical Theory. Other subjects I have been taught are Harmony, Basic Piano, Practice of Orchestra, Wind Band, Chamber Music, and English. I think these subjects are very useful for my professional development; however, some of them could be mixed or taught earlier in order to shorten the length of the studies.

Music formation is another subject I was taught, this one is related to teaching formation, so I was able to learn about learning theories and paradigms. I think this is very useful and I would like to continue learning about teaching.

The length of the career is 4 years in the initial phase and 5 years more in the advanced phase, and the workload is a little bit high but not too much. A big change I would do would be to shorten the programme; I think that some subjects can be done earlier or mixed.

The building is very old, the infrastructure is not the best, and the elevator is frequently out of service. In these days, we have space where we can have lunch but not a cafeteria, and then we have to leave the campus to buy something at a market.
In some cases, the teaching methods are out-dated, there are teacher that do not include didactic activities, their classes are just expositive, then students do not participate much.

  1. nice post something similar happens for me in my career in relation for the curriculum mesh I think that the different careers of the faculty in themselves don´t try to make changes over the years being that it would be good to listen to the suggestions of the students

  2. Hi

    In my opinion the students aren't participate beacause they haven't want to be involve with politics.

    And I agree with that If you considerer that everything that is going to be a good change for all, a little group try to capitalize it.

    I think that in university we need to be politic but no act as poltics. And probably more people will involve.

  3. I had forgotten the piano subject, I think that should also improve and be a little more demanding or with more years.

  4. Our faculty and its facilities are a complete disaster, there are many things to fix at administration, education and artistry. I understand your way to think.
