Tan, Leonard – Music Education Research, 2016
In this philosophical paper, I propose a theory of music education inspired by ancient Chinese philosophy. In particular, I draw on five classical Chinese philosophical texts: the Analects (lunyu [Chinese characters omitted]), the Mencius (Mengzi [Chinese characters omitted]), the Zhuangzi ([Chinese characters omitted]), the Xunzi ([Chinese…

McBride, Nicholas R.; Palkki, Joshua – Music Education Research, 2020
Gender identity has become a topic of much discussion, both in society and in (music) education. Researchers have explored various topics surrounding gender over the past several decades. One such study was Koza's (1993a) content analysis of choral methods textbooks and articles published between 1982 and 1992 utilising Socialist Feminist Theory…

Pitts, Stephanie E. – Music Education Research, 2017
Music education has a long history of defending its place in the school curriculum, with practitioners and researchers alike arguing for the creative, social and cognitive benefits of music in young people's lives. Meanwhile, those who doubt the benefits of musical learning--or more likely give them very little thought--are themselves the product…

Stavrou, Natassa Economidou; O'Connell, Lorraine – Music Education Research, 2022
As a result of a documented decline in student engagement with curricular music in recent decades, which has called into question traditional approaches to music learning and teaching, theorists have advocated for a reconceptualisation of 'curriculum' in music education. This expanded understanding challenges teachers to reject the 'instruction…

Yang, Yang – Music Education Research, 2023
Professional identity development (PID) of school music teachers is critical to teacher community sustainability, the quality of school music practices, and the long-term well-being of the music education system. While in-service music teacher training strengthens the occupational aspects of teachers' identity, the iterative PID process is both…

Orton, Alice; Pitts, Stephanie E. – Music Education Research, 2019
Previous research on adolescents and singing has focused on understanding the physiological changes in the voice during the age range 11-16 [Cooksey, J. M., and G. F. Welch. 2008. 'Adolescence, singing development and national curricula design.' British Journal of Music Education 15 (1): 99-119], and addressing the lack of male participation in…

Georgii-Hemming, Eva; Johansson, Karin; Moberg, Nadia – Music Education Research, 2020
Reflective practice is seen as a method for professional growth and lasting learning outcomes, but what this means in the context of Higher Music Education (HME) has not received sufficient attention. This paper explores how reflection is ontologised and justified as part of performing musicians' education. The data utilised derive from a…

Kim, Sori – Music Education Research, 2023
Gender stereotypes in musical instrument selection have been studied for over 40 years. However, little research has been conducted on the importance of reducing the impact of factors that affect the stereotyping of musical instruments within the framework of sociology. Gender stereotypes of musical instruments emerge in early childhood and have…

In the twenty-first century, there has been significant discussion worldwide about students and their learning processes.

Norton, Naomi; Ginsborg, Jane; Greasley, Alinka – Music Education Research, 2019
Instrumental and vocal tuition is an important part of music education but relatively little is known about musicians who participate in this profession or their views on what makes someone 'qualified' to do so. An online survey was completed by 496 musicians teaching instrumental or vocal pupils in the UK. Findings focus on respondents'…

Almqvist, Cecilia Ferm – Music Education Research, 2019
Earlier research has stated that there is a risk that traditional gender roles are conserved in non-formal popular music education, which might challenge teachers when it comes to offering equal learning opportunities. This article presents results from an interview study regarding the situation of female electric guitarists in popular music…

Kos, Ronald P., Jr. – Music Education Research, 2018
A major component in the socialisation of teachers is the development of a belief system, which is closely related to their identities. A better understanding of the belief systems and identities of preservice teachers when they begin the process of secondary socialisation could influence approaches to teacher preparation. The purpose of this…

Achieving fluency in sightreading--particularly rhythm reading--is cited by researchers as a universally problematic component of formal music education. This study employed an experimental design to examine the efficacy of focused practice on rhythm reading with targeted feedback. College music majors (n = 28) were sent a novel, challenging piece…
