My name is Nicholas Roseth (pronounce), and I serve as Assistant Professor and Coordinator of Music Education at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania.
At Bucknell, I teach a variety of music education courses, including Introduction to Music Teaching, Instrumental Methods & Literature, Music for Exceptional Children, Principles of Music Teaching, Student Teacher Seminar, and Woodwind Methods. I teach several courses primarily for non-majors, including Music-Making for Beginners, Music and the Mind, and Human Flourishing. I also advise student research projects and senior honors theses.
I previously taught instrumental and secondary general music in Colorado, including band, orchestra, jazz band, class piano, class guitar, and STOMP. While teaching in Colorado, I also served as instructional mentor to new teachers in my district.
I have received awards for excellence in teaching from the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association Society for Music Teacher Education and from the Education Foundation for the St. Vrain Valley.
My primary research interests include inclusion, well-being, place and space, and creativity. Taken together, I aim to understand well-being, creativity, and inclusion in the physical environment of our music classrooms.
I have presented research and pedagogical sessions at regional and national conferences, and I have research published in Research & Issues in Music Education, Journal of Music Teacher Education, Update: Applications of Research in Music Education, Psychology of Music, Bulletin of the Council for Research in Music Education, and Journal of Research in Music Education.
I hold a Bachelor of Music (BM) degree from Susquehanna University, a Master of Music Education (MME) degree from the University of Colorado Boulder, and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree from Indiana University Bloomington.
