Courtney Crappell: Teaching Today’s Generation

Courtney Crappell speaks about some of the specific topics associated with teaching students of today's generation, sometimes referred to as Generation Z. He discusses student vs. teacher-centered learning, goal-oriented versus process-oriented approaches, how the presence of free Youtube piano tutorials affects piano teaching, and, paradoxically, some of the risks of overgeneralizing based on age and ignoring other aspects of identity and individual variation among students.
