e) Resources: Music Department

The Music Department, along with the Art Department and Drama Department, is housed in the Barnett Fine Arts Center which has 65,000 square feet of space. Of this space, approximately 45,000 square used by the Music Department. The acoustically treated building is predominately brick and mortar construction with effective soundproofing throughout the facility achieved through various construction techniques (i.e., double walls, door seals, air handling baffles, offset wall receptacles. The music facilities include one large general classroom, one music theory classroom and lab with 28 computer/music workstations, one traditional music theory classroom with lined whiteboard, one conference/small classroom, one piano laboratory, one student lobby, one green room (adjacent to the Barnett Recital Hall), kitchen facilities, two large rehearsal rooms (which also double as classrooms), one large Instrumental and choral music library, and many storage rooms. Also, there are two recording/mixing studios—one adjacent to the Recital Hall and one smaller studio—11 full-time teaching studios, seven part-time teaching studios, a Music Office complex, and 20 practice rooms. The entire facility is handicapped accessible (ramps, elevator, restrooms). These facilities serve the students and faculty very well and are more than adequate for the efficient functioning of the department and its programs. The Music Department uses three facilities for the majority of its performances: The Spence Chapel Auditorium; the Barnett Recital Hall; and the Barnett Theater. The University’s 2,200-seat Chapel Auditorium is an excellent facility for large ensemble concerts (e.g., University Orchestra, University Chorus) and collaborative programs involving several ensembles. The Chapel Auditorium functions with some regularity by off-campus organizations such as the Springfield Symphony, Messiah Project Inc., and the Springfield Mid-America Singers. The 300-seat Barnett Recital Hall accommodates solo recitals, concerts by the University Chorale, and various other chamber programs. Additionally, the Recital Hall serves as a recording studio, as a venue for guest lectures, and is available for occasional classroom use. The 220-seat Barnett Theatre, which includes a small orchestra pit, is used for collaborative events (i.e., musicals) with the Theatre Department. Additionally, the Seymour Chapel located in the seminary building functions for Worship Leadership recitals when the Barnett Recital Hall is in use.

IV. ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES

National Standardized Test Scores and Surveys:

A current standardized exam used by music education students (roughly 30% of all music

majors) is the ETS Praxis II Subject Assessment exam. The following table identifies Praxis II

scores for all music education majors. Students take the exam prior to the student teaching

semester.

Subject Area 10-11 11-12 12-13 13-14 14-15

MUSIC 100% (5/5) 100% (6/6) 100% (3/3) 100%

(11/11) 100% (5/5)

Other standardized testing tools, including the ETS Major Field Test for Music are currently being studied with the hope that an exam can be found that is applicable to all music students.

During 2012, the Music, Humanities, and Communications participated in the Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP). As results become available, areas that are identified as “opportunities” will be addressed.

Subject Area 10-11 11-12 12-13 13-14 14-15

MUSIC 100% (5/5) 100% (6/6) 100% (3/3) 100%

(11/11) 100% (5/5)

Other standardized testing tools, including the ETS Major Field Test for Music are currently being studied with the hope that an exam can be found that is applicable to all music students.

During 2012, the Music, Humanities, and Communications participated in the Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP). As results become available, areas that are identified as “opportunities” will be addressed.

Methodology: Data were collected (formative and summative evaluations) from EU music

education student teachers during the 2015-2016 academic year. Informal interviews conducted

with current students, graduates, and music faculty members at EU, MSU, and MU. A comparative

study carried out by Dr. Kevin Hawkins involving EU, MSU, and MU music education programs.

Narrative jottings are recorded in monthly EU Education Department meetings. Moreover, the

practical and educational experience are considered during the study. The program assessment

tools have been evaluated by the music faculty concerning criteria and measurable outcomes.

Results of Assessment (data in summary format): After various forms of data were collected,

assessed, and discussed, Dr. Hawkins reported this information to our music assessment faculty.

The committee reached a consensus that our music education program at Evangel was successful

and competed with some of the finest universities in Missouri. However, there are common themes

that needed to be addressed and discussed regarding our EU Music Education degree. It was

determined that the current program assessment tools do not provide detailed criteria and /or

measurable outcomes.

Strengths: The strengths of this assessment and the use of a wide spectrum of the assessment tools

(evaluations, personal interviews, a comparative study, collaborative meetings, an outside

assessment of EU’s music program (NASM), and practical experience) demonstrate a strong and

competitive music education program here at Evangel. Our core curriculum classes, music courses,

and educational courses are thorough and prepare the students for music education positions at

the elementary or secondary levels or graduate school. We have talented, dedicated, and caring

teachers and administrators who work tirelessly to prepare and equip our students. At the local


sites, cooperating teachers and building administrators continue to give EU music education

students’ high marks for their time in the classroom. However, after assessment, a few areas of our

music education program could be refined and enhanced.

Areas in need of improvement: From the instruments and methodology used in this assessment

four concerns or themes were found. Items 1-2 fall within supervision and evaluation and items 3-4

fall within class requirements and structure. The program assessment tools of the Theory Exam,

Performance Audition, Sophomore Review (see page 40 for criteria), Jury Exams, and Junior and

Senior Recitals needs revision so that data are measurable.

1. Field Experience or Music Practicums. All music education students are required to be involved

in three field experiences or music practicums before their student teaching experience

(elementary, middle school, high school). These three practicums are assigned, tracked, and

evaluated by the EU Education Department. The Music Department is not involved in this

process in any capacity. At other universities ( a comparative study of EU, MSU, and MU) the

music supervisor does most or all of the evaluations during field experience or practicums.

Important Note: During the spring 2016 National Association of Schools of Music (NASM) evaluation a few areas were listed as a concern. One area dealt with placement, supervision, and assessment of Music Education Practicum students at Evangel.

Curriculum: NASM stated, “The curriculum appears to meet most NASM standards for the degree. Students are engaged in three practicum courses (EDUC 220, 397, 497) but are not always

‘supervised by qualified music personnel from the institution’; therefore, it is not clear how the

curriculum complies with NASM standards (NASM Handbook 2015-16, IX.O.3.e.(3)).

2. Student Teaching Experience. All student teachers (Music) are assigned a site, tracked, and

evaluated by the EU Education Department. The student teachers are evaluated four times

during their time in the field. The EU Education Department faculty completes one formative and

one summative evaluation. The EU Music Education faculty completes one formative and one

summative evaluation. Additionally, the cooperating teacher and building administer at the

student teaching site have an opportunity to evaluate the student teacher. All information is

collected, evaluated, and the Education Department issues a final grade. The EU Music Education

faculty is not informed of the final grade and evaluation by others involved in the process. In

other universities (MSU, MU) the music supervisor does most or all of the evaluations during

student teaching.

3. Class Requirements and Structure (History Option). All EU students are required to take a core

class (3 credits) for the History Inquiry Option. In addition, music education students are required

to take two music history classes (Music History Survey I-3credits, and Music History Survey II, 3

credits). It would benefit music education students at EU to use the music history courses to

satisfy the History Inquiry Option. Our music education students at EU attend 9 semesters of

undergraduate classes compared to 8 semesters of music education classes at MSU and MU.

Here at EU music students are able to satisfy their Humanities Option by taking MUSC 252 Music

in World Cultures (3 credits).


4. Class Requirements and Structure. EDUC 271 Exceptional Student (2 credits) and EDUC 352

Teaching Reading (2 credits) are taught in the Education Department and might better serve and

equip our music education students if they were taught in the students’ areas of certification

(i.e., Teaching the Exceptional Music Student, Elementary and Secondary Music Reading). MSU

and MU music education students take these classes in the Music Department and not in the

Education Department.

Plans for improvement:

First, the Music Faculty suggested we table Items 3-4 at this time for further investigation and

study. Second, the EU Music Education faculty supervisor (Dr. Kevin Hawkins) should be allowed

more opportunities to assign, track, evaluate, and assess EU music education students during their

three practicum experiences (Item 1). The music education supervisor should be enlisted, by the

Education Department, to suggest or assign site locations and also help evaluate music students

during these practicum experiences in the field. Third, the music education supervisor should be

enlisted, by the Education Department, to suggest or assign site locations and also help evaluate

music students during their student teaching assignments (Item 2). The music supervisor at EU

should evaluate the music student teachers three out of four times in the field instead of two out of

four times. The music supervisor should be informed of the music students’ evaluations in the

process and the music supervisor should help formulate a final grade for their student teaching

experience.

Plan for Improvement Timeline Responsible Person

*See above “Plan for Improvement.” Plan was voted on and approved by music assessment committee 9/16/16

To be accomplished spring 2017.

Dr. Kevin Hawkins, Dr. Greg Morris, and Tom Matrone will meet and discuss this improvement plan with the EU Education Department

Academic Program Evaluated: BM Worship Leadership



1. Mr. Tom Matrone Head of Music Department Committee Member












2. Analysis of Program assessment tools: Music Theory Placement Exam, Performance Audition,

Jury Exam, Senior Worship Project and Creative Arts Administration Projects

3. Worship Internship (local church)

4. Personal interviews and consultations (current students, graduates, and faculty)

Methodology: Data were collected from existing students currently enrolled in this program. The

data included entrance audition data, theory placement exam results (pass/fail) and applied lesson


evaluations. Further data collected through journal/reports composed by worship leadership

internships and supervisor approval. The Music Department’s recent accreditation report to the

National Association of Schools of Music were also consulted. Future data will include information

from the sophomore review to be implemented in the Fall of 2017 (see page 40 for criteria). The

program assessment tools were evaluated by the music faculty with regard to criteria and

measurable outcomes.

Results of Assessment (data in summary format):

Graduation information: 26 students received the BM in Music in the 4 years of 2013- 2016.

Current Students Enrolled: 22 students are currently enrolled in the BM in Music (Worship

Leadership) degree.

Performance Entrance Audition/Theory Placement, Jury Exams:

All students currently enrolled in the BM in Music degree have met the criteria for admission.

Strengths:

The Bachelor of Music in Worship Leadership is a professional degree that allows the student to

discover the multi-faceted aspects of local church pastoral music ministry. This degree also prepares

the student to facilitate and design church music programs with curriculum that meets the approval

of the NASM. Unique classes in the area of Worship Leadership and Arts Administration focus on

the strengths of leadership, theological knowledge, and character formation.

Areas in need of improvement:

1. The Faculty is seeking to improve the supervision of internships. The desire is to coordinate more closely with supervising music directors and have on-site observations of interns similar to student teacher evaluations.

2. The need to develop an extra-curricular student organization for Worship Leadership, modeled somewhat on student chapters of NafMe. It would provide additional support and training, networking, and enhance coordination among worship teams on campus.

3. The need for improvement in media technology training.



*see plans above Fall 2017 Mr. Jason Salazar

Mr. Tom Matrone

Improvements made:

Curricular changes have also emphasized practical preparation for church work. Two courses in

particular, Worship Leadership and Administration in Creative Arts develop a program that assists in

day-to- day operations.

Academic Program Evaluated: BS Music Technology



1. Mr. Tom Matrone Chairman Committee Member











1. Comparative Study of like four year BS degree (course load, courses offered)

2. Comparative Study of studio equipment and materials used

3. Comparative Study of facilities

4. Personal interviews (current students, graduates, and faculty)

5. Analysis of program assessment tools: Music Theory Placement Exam, Performance Audition and

Jury Exams.

6. National Association of Schools of Music (NASM) evaluation and report.


Methodology: Data collected from a comparative study of like BS 4 year degree tracks and

personal interviews from current and graduated students along with current Evangel Faculty. The

program assessment tools will be evaluated by the music faculty with regard to criteria and

measureable outcomes.

Results of Assessment (data in summary format): The current BS degree with an emphasis in

Recording Technology degree at Evangel was found to be competitive with other like degree tracks

regarding course load, unique courses offered, the total cost of tuition and teaching materials

currently used. The comparative study did present obvious areas regarding the BS Recording Tech

degree. It was determined that the current program assessment tools do not provide detailed

criteria and/or measureable outcomes.

Strengths: The strengths of the assessment demonstrate the degree track and course load are

standard and compare with other universities including that of the core curriculum, music courses

and those specific to the field of study.

Areas in need of improvement: From data collected four concerns were found:

1) Inadequate studio equipment according to the industry standard.

2) Lack of real life application in the degree track itself.

3) Inadequate studio space according to the industry standard.


Evangel University should invest in the BS Recording Technology degree in the following way:

1. Provide a dedicated, professional working studio space for mixing, mastering, editing, isolation rooms, acoustically treated etc. according to the industry standard

2. Provide industry standard equipment as found professional studios. 3. Provide more real life application for the field of study in recording, mixing, mastering, CD

production, artist management, etc. 4. Revision of Program Assessment Tools.

Additional Data:

1. BA in Music graduation statistics


Methodology: Data were collected from existing documents for students currently enrolled in this

program. These data included performance entrance audition data, theory placement exam results

(pass/fail), and applied lesson evaluations. The Music Department’s recent accreditation report to

the National Association of Schools of Music was also consulted.

Future data will include the data from the sophomore review to be implemented in the fall of 2017

(see page 40 for criteria). The program assessment tools were evaluated by the music faculty with

regard to criteria and measurable outcomes.

Results of Assessment (data in summary format):

Graduation information: 28 students received the BA in Music degree in the 8 years from 2009-

2016. Average graduates per year: 3.5

Current Students Enrolled: Records indicate 2 students currently enrolled in the BA in Music

degree. It should be noted, however, that music students often change their specific degree

programs.

Performance Entrance Audition/Theory Placement, Jury Exams: All students currently enrolled in

the BA in Music program have met the criteria for admission—i.e., they have passed their entrance

auditions and theory placement exams. In addition, the single upper class student has passed jury

examination.

Strengths: The Bachelor of Arts in Music is an exploratory degree that allows students the

opportunity to study music while also earning a minor or second major in another field. Because it

is a non-professional music degree, there are no unique classes required. The BA degree continues

to serve the diverse career aspirations for many students in the Music Department.

Areas in need of improvement: The review of student records undertaken for this report revealed a

need for greater accuracy in reporting specific majors within the music program. It was difficult to

determine whether students listed under the summary designation “music” were pursuing the BS

degree in Recording Technology or the BA degree in music. In addition, music faculty advisors need

to be accurate in their listing of student major. The BA in Music degree also awaits the full

implementation of the sophomore performance review. The program assessment tools of the

Theory Placement Exam, Performance Audition, Sophomore Review (see page 40 for criteria), and

Jury Exams need revision so that data are measurable.



Create another category in CAMS that clearly distinguishes between students earning the BA in Music and BS in Recording Technology.

All music majors (except Performance) must schedule the exam during their fourth semester.

Transfer students and those changing majors after matriculation must do so no later than their

third semester at EU as a music major. In most cases, exams will be conducted during Continuing

Student Auditions. Students should sign up for two consecutive 5-minute time slots.

The Exam will consist of 3 components.

1. 10 minute audition, during which the student will perform three pieces:

First piece (four minutes maximum) may be scored for scholarship

Minimum difficulty level of all pieces should be consistent with the Music Handbook

guidelines for sophomores (950 level for BM, 930 for BA/BS)

Two pieces may be repeated from the previous semester’s jury. The third must be a new

piece the student has begun to study the current semester and will be evaluated with

the understanding that it has been studied for only a short time

For instrumentalists, scales will also be included

2. Academic Review: students must not have earned a grade lower that C- in any music course. In

rare instances, exceptions may be granted by majority faculty vote.

3. If academic requirements are met (or the faculty vote to grant an exception), faculty will vote

on the audition scorecard following discussion:

PASS: Meets the performance standards for BM degrees, regardless of degree being

pursued.

PASS (non-BM degree): Meets the performance standards for BS/BA degrees only.

FAIL

NOTE: Selection of “Pass” or “Pass (non-BM degree)” should be based solely on the quality and

difficulty level of the performance, not the program in which the student is currently enrolled.

The decision, determined by simple majority, will be recorded on the student’s degree sheet. The

Department Chair will notify the student of the decision by letter and a copy of the letter will be

placed in the student’s file.

Additional Information:

• Fall auditions will be scheduled during mid-October as needed.

• In some cases, it may be determined that a student wishing to pursue a BM degree meets

only the BA/BS requirements and is approved only for those programs.

• Students passing at the non-BM level may not switch to a BM degree without petitioning the

faculty to re-audition.

• Students failing the review will be eligible only for scholarships available to non-majors and

will not be allowed to accumulate more than 35 credits in music without approval of the

music faculty.

• The student’s current transcript will be checked via the Faculty Portal during auditions.

• The music faculty reserve the right to re-consider any decision.
