The AMS Pedagogy Study Group is excited to welcome you to Columbus State University this summer for the 2024 Teaching Music History Conference, to be held 7-9 June 2024. The Teaching Music History Conference promises be a site for the exploration of issues related to teaching music history at any academic level and for the discovery of new and more inclusive pedagogical methods. The conference features a special workshop, “Teaching the Blues through Ma Rainey” (a Columbus native).
