Description
Despite the wealth of folk music traditions in Portugal and the importance of the clarinet in the music of bandas filarmonicas, it is uncommon to find works featuring the clarinet using Portuguese folk music elements. In the interest of expanding this type of repertoire, three new works were commissioned from three different composers. The resulting works are Seres Imaginarios 3 by Luis Cardoso; Delirio Barroco by Tiago Derrica; and Memória by Pedro Faria Gomes. In an effort to submit these new works for inclusion into mainstream performance literature, the author has recorded these works on compact disc. This document includes interview transcripts with each composer, providing first-person discussion of each composition, as well as detailed biographical information on each composer. To provide context, the author has included a brief discussion on Portuguese folk music, and in particular, the role that the clarinet plays in Portuguese folk music culture.

Description
Academia is not what it used to be. In today’s fast-paced world, requirements
are constantly changing, and adapting to these changes in an academic curriculum
can be challenging. Given a specific aspect of a domain, there can be various levels of
proficiency that can be achieved by the students. Considering the wide array of needs,
diverse groups need customized course curriculum. The need for having an archetype
to design a course focusing on the outcomes paved the way for Outcome-based
Education (OBE). OBE focuses on the outcomes as opposed to the traditional way of
following a process [23]. According to D. Clark, the major reason for the creation of
Bloom’s taxonomy was not only to stimulate and inspire a higher quality of thinking
in academia – incorporating not just the basic fact-learning and application, but also
to evaluate and analyze on the facts and its applications [7]. Instructional Module
Development System (IMODS) is the culmination of both these models – Bloom’s
Taxonomy and OBE. It is an open-source web-based software that has been
developed on the principles of OBE and Bloom’s Taxonomy. It guides an instructor,
step-by-step, through an outcomes-based process as they define the learning
objectives, the content to be covered and develop an instruction and assessment plan.
The tool also provides the user with a repository of techniques based on the choices
made by them regarding the level of learning while defining the objectives. This helps
in maintaining alignment among all the components of the course design. The tool
also generates documentation to support the course design and provide feedback
when the course is lacking in certain aspects.
It is not just enough to come up with a model that theoretically facilitates
effective result-oriented course design. There should be facts, experiments and proof
that any model succeeds in achieving what it aims to achieve. And thus, there are two
research objectives of this thesis: (i) design a feature for course design feedback and
evaluate its effectiveness; (ii) evaluate the usefulness of a tool like IMODS on various
aspects – (a) the effectiveness of the tool in educating instructors on OBE; (b) the
effectiveness of the tool in providing appropriate and efficient pedagogy and
assessment techniques; (c) the effectiveness of the tool in building the learning
objectives; (d) effectiveness of the tool in document generation; (e) Usability of the
tool; (f) the effectiveness of OBE on course design and expected student outcomes.
The thesis presents a detailed algorithm for course design feedback, its pseudocode, a
description and proof of the correctness of the feature, methods used for evaluation
of the tool, experiments for evaluation and analysis of the obtained results.
