MUSONIC 1002 - Music & Sound Fundamentals 1B

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2021

Building on the knowledgebase and skills developed through Music and Sound Fundamentals 1A, this course expands student's understanding of musical concepts relevant to the fields of Sonic Arts, Sound Engineering and Music Production. Students will develop a more complex understanding of the connections between the physical nature of sound and listening, while developing skills in music theory and aural that are relevant to audio professionals. A range of concepts are introduced through exploring the connections between the physics of sound, physiology of hearing and critical listening, and fundamental musical concepts including scales, harmonic structures, and musical forms, . By the conclusion of the course, students will have acquired a sound understanding of music theory concepts and developed further skills in their application to music production. In addition, students will have developed an appreciation of the importance of listening and acquired critical listening skills that can be applied to studio situations.

  • Student Feedback

    The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
