About this listen
In this special episode of Beyond The Stand, I wrap up Season 1 by sharing major announcements and key takeaways from my capstone project journey.
Announcements:
My Master’s degree is officially complete – thank you for all your support!
This episode marks the end of Season 1, which is also the completion of my capstone project.
Planning for Season 2 is already underway (and one interview is recorded!).
I’ll be taking a short break to settle into the school year before launching Season 2.
I’ve launched a GoFundMe to help with production costs, technology, site management, and marketing for Season 2. You can support here: https://gofund.me/05130db2
What I’ve Learned:
I’m not alone – There’s a growing network of educators teaching popular and commercial music.
It’s both/and – We can grow traditional programs by adding popular music education, not replacing them.
Student voice matters – Involving students from the start is the first, practical step to building a successful PME program.
Season 2 will focus more on practical strategies and tools educators can use right away. Please share this podcast so more teachers can join the conversation and find the confidence to teach popular music in their own programs.
