Pedagogical communication in the music classroom
Pedagogical communication in the music classroom
This chapter examines the ways in which music teachers communicate with pupils in secondary music classrooms while engaged in music making, teaching, and learning. It first considers some ideas associated with communication as part of the learning process, and communication within the learning environment; links are made between these ideas, the music classroom, and the different ways teachers and students communicate. It suggests ways in which verbal and musical communication might be used to engage pupils in open-ended creative tasks using various communication strategies such as direct teaching and scaffolding. Finally, the chapter examines how verbal, non-verbal, and musical communication can be used in the classroom. It provides a template for teachers to assist in planning and implementing teaching activities with individuals and small groups.
