Leadership of Pedagogy and Curriculum in Higher Music Education is
the second of a two-volume anthology dedicated to leadership and
leadership development in higher music education. Fifteen authors
write from multiple countries and contexts, exploring pedagogical
and curricular leadership challenges and successes from around the
globe. They draw attention to the dynamics of pedagogical
approaches which encourage learners' deep and agentic engagement,
considering the sustainability and scope of such interventions
while highlighting positive frameworks and approaches. As with its
companion volume, Leadership of Pedagogy and Curriculum in Higher
Music Education includes student commentary in which student
contributors give concrete ideas and recommendations for
facilitating and strengthening leadership development through
practical and equitable strategies with students, communities and
colleagues. The outcome is a collection of essays designed to offer
student musicians, higher education teachers and institutional
leaders theoretically informed and practical insights into the
development and practice of leadership.
Leadership and Musician Development in Higher Music Education
informs, challenges and evaluates the central practices, policies
and theories that underpin the preparation of future music leaders
and the leadership of music in higher education. In higher
education, it is often presumed that preparing for professional
work is the responsibility of the individual rather than the
institution. This anthology draws on the expertise of music
practitioners to present the complexities surrounding this topic,
exploring approaches to leadership development while addressing
prevalent leadership issues from multiple standpoints. Leadership
is an inherent part of being a musician: from the creative act
through to collaborative engagement, it is fundamental to creating
and sustaining a career in music. To expect musicians to develop
these necessary skills "on the job", however, is unreasonable and
impractical. What support might be given to those looking to
negotiate a career as a musician? In fourteen essays, contributors
from around the globe explore this question and more, questions
such as: How might leadership be modelled for aspiring musicians?
How might students learn to recognise, appraise and extend their
leadership development? How might institutional leaders challenge
curricular and pedagogical norms? Effective leadership development
for musicians is vital to the longevity of the profession -
Leadership and Musician Development in Higher Music Education is a
likewise vital resource for students, educators and future music
leaders alike.

This book focuses on essential findings concerning emerging
practices of student learning through the teaching and learning
benefits of the electronic portfolio (ePortfolio) in a range of
disciplines at Australian universities. It explores the latest
research on ePortfolios, teaching quality, future research
directions for tertiary learning and teaching, institutional
agendas in higher education, and the role that the ePortfolios can
play in supporting improvements in pedagogic practice and student
outcomes. Included in these agendas is research into the
development of higher education through the technologising of
pedagogy, learner identities in discrete disciplines, and the
praxis of individual university teachers. The book covers accounts
of academic learning success and challenges across current higher
education subject areas. By presenting case study accounts of
ePortfolio use, it reveals the importance of defining and
documenting how we can meaningfully develop learner portfolios in
research, teaching and learning at Australian universities. With an
intentional research base, the book draws on work conducted inside
and outside Australia and highlights how the ePortfolio can help
tertiary staff prepare for the impact of a student-created
portfolio on teaching, learning, and subsequent academic
scholarship.
