Re-imagining Music Education for the 21st Century
Re-Imagining Curricula in Global Times
Author: Jennifer M. Mellizo
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031376196
Category : Curriculum change
Languages : en
Pages : 157
Book Description
Through this book, the author examines the role of music education within the larger global education movement. Specifically, the author argues music education has unique potential to foster positive global identity and to promote higher levels of intercultural sensitivity during adolescence. Music educators can use the framework in this book to craft lessons that will help their adolescent students develop positive global identities as they progress towards higher levels of intercultural sensitivity within the context of musical learning experiences. The book also offers a framework that can help practicing and pre-service music educators to engage in the type of cultural and musical self-reflection needed to resist deeply engrained hegemonic tendencies. As such, more students have access to an inclusive, flexible, and meaningful musical education. Within the final two chapters, the author proposes - and provides concrete examples of - a new curricular planning strategy for music educators which synthesizes the information presented in the preceding chapters and provides a concrete vision for (re)imagining music education as global education.

Book Description
"Amid new challenges and demands facing higher education and the public marketplace in the 21st century, music faculty are increasingly aware of the need to reimagine classical music performance training for future students, reshaping longstanding educational experiences.

Bringing a healthy skepticism to the assumptions and realities of classical music education today, they illuminate areas of unavoidable challenge as well as areas of possibility and hope.

Culture, Community, and Educational Success
Author: Crystal Polite Glover
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1498557732
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Many Black, Latinx, multiracial and ethnically diverse, first-generation college students turned PhDs—tie their academic success, achievements, and ability to navigate the difficult terrain of higher education back to the critical experiences and lessons learned in their home lives and through their cultural backgrounds. For them, culture matters. This book offers an opportunity for an anti-deficit and positive examination of (Black, Latinx, and multiracial) culture and its role in creating educational efficacy among academics of color. Through personal narrative, educational and learning theory, creative writing/poetry, this hybrid text examines the cultural path to the doctorate. Transformative practice should be guided by an understanding of how an appreciation of a faculty member’s cultural, life, and social experiences can be used to establish a healthy environment that will better appreciate, engage, and retain faculty of color. Along these lines, this text also considers how cultural, life and social experiences translate into pedagogy, mentorship and value as faculty of color.

Author: Marshall Haning
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040094236
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 105

For decades, scholars in the field of music education have recognized the need for growth and change in our approach to teaching music, yet despite these calls for change, the music education curriculum today remains remarkably similar to that of a century ago. Points of Disruption in the Music Education Curriculum, Volume 2: Individual Changes is one of two volumes that bring together applied suggestions, analyses, and best practices for disrupting cycles of replication in the curriculum of K-12 and collegiate music education programs in the United States and beyond, considering disruption as a force for positive change.

Bringing together 6 thought-provoking chapters, this book offers a diverse set of concrete strategies that will be useful to a wide range of music education stakeholders, including teachers, administrators, and curriculum designers.

Re-imagining Indigenous Knowledge and Practices in 21st Century Africa
Author: Tenson M. Muyambo
Publisher: African Books Collective
ISBN: 9956553697
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 457
Book Description
This book is on the re-imagination of Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) and practices in 21st century Africa. Framed from an anti-colonial perspective, the book critically interrogates epistemological erasures and injustices meted against African IKS and practices. It magnifies the different contexts where African IKS were and continue to be used effectively for collective and personal benefit. Beyond the legitimate frustration and disheartenment expressed by the contributors to this volume over the systematic colonial efforts to render inferior and delegitimate African systems of knowing and knowledge production, the book makes an important contribution to the quest to correct misconceptions and misrepresentations by Eurocentric thinkers and practitioners about African indigenous knowledges. The book makes an informed claim that the future and vibrancy of African indigenous knowledge and practices lie in how well scholars of knowledge studies and decoloniality in and on Africa are able to join hands in articulating, debating and fronting their vitality and relevance in varied real-life situations. More importantly, the book provides a re-invigorated overview and nuanced analyses of the important role and continued relevance of African IKS and practices in the understanding, interpreting and tackling of the social unfoldings of everyday life and dynamism. Without romanticising African IKS and practices, the book provides added insights and pointers on policy and trends. It is an important addition to critical debates on knowledge studies across fields.

Author: Tina Besley
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9462094586
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
The creative university is a new concept that has a number of competing conceptions emphasizing digital teaching, learning and research infrastructures, the paradigm of intellectual property, creative social development and academic entrepreneurship. Not only does the concept include the fostering and critique of creative content industries and new forms of distance and online education but more fundamentally it refers to a reassessment of neoliberal strategies to build the knowledge economy.
