Constructing A Personal Orientation To Music Teaching: Growth, Inquiry, And Agency

Constructing a Personal Orientation to Music Teaching: Growth, Inquiry, and Agency, Second Edition, promotes inquiry and reflection to facilitate teacher growth, lifelong learning, and a disposition toward educational change. Grounded in current theories in teacher education, the authors invite students to analyze their own experiences in order to conceptualize the complexity of teaching and to clarify their reasons for following this career path, urging teachers to be agents of change in school settings. Since its initial publication a decade ago, new research and licensures-as well as political and social changes requiring an educated citizenry to be more responsive to diversity's role in daily and musical life-demand an update. This second edition retains both the orientation and pedagogical perspectives of the first edition while introducing new features such as the Take It to the Field" spotlight, which focuses on developing active field-based inquiry and observational skills and narrative analysis. The updates encompass a bevy of all-new material, including four new chapters exploring methodologies for studying the commonplace of the teacher, learner, subject matter, and context. Constructing a Personal Orientation to Music Teaching: Growth, Inquiry, and Agency, Second Edition, helps both music teacher educators and preservice teachers meet the challenges of modern teaching in proactive ways"--
