Description

Examines the scope of recent research in music education and surveys the field of music psychology and sociology, and the methodological approaches to and sources for further investigation specifically related to music teaching and learning. Focuses on the application of these areas in the Australian environment, and examines theories and current research concerned with creativity, musical ability and current issues in studies of music perception and cognition. Aims to expose students to a variety of ideas and trends which confirm or contradict established norms and attitudes on effective music teaching.
