Teaching Music Differently explores what music teachers do and why.
It offers insightful analysis of eight in-depth studies of teachers
in a range of settings - the early years, a special school, primary
and secondary schools, a college, a prison, a conservatoire and a
community choir - and demonstrates that pedagogy is not simply the
delivery of a curriculum or an enactment of a teaching plan.
Rather, a teacher's pedagogy is complex, nuanced and influenced by
a multitude of factors. Exploring the theories teachers hold about
their own teaching, it reveals that, even when teachers are engaged
with the same subject, their teaching varies substantially. It
analyses the differences in terms of agency - the knowledge and
skills that teachers bring to teaching, their expectations shaped
by their life histories, the ways in which they relate to their
students and the subject and their ideas about the content they
teach - what is important, what is interesting, what is difficult
for students to grasp. It also explores the constraints that are
imposed upon the teachers - by curriculum, policy, institutions,
society and the students themselves. Together with discussion of
key ideas for understanding the case studies, historical influences
on music pedagogy and the main discourses around music teaching,
Teaching Music Differently invites all music education
professionals to consider their own responses to pedagogical
discourses and to use these discourses to further the development
of the profession as a whole.
