The disciplinary component of the course includes topics that discuss various music elements and styles, and how music relates to society so as to enhance students’ understanding of related issues. The academic literacy component of the course focuses on the vocabulary and linguistic elements related to disciplinary content for students to build and enhance their writing and communication competencies in order to express their thoughts clearly, coherently, and concisely in communicating about music.<\/p>\n
