This course seeks to introduce to student teachers Western musical practices by situating them in a social and historical context. Musical practices, via creating performing and responding, form the basis of learning about any specific musical practice and the activity of experiencing and reflecting on the musical practice. Each musical practice would have to be viewed from its own culturally situated and practice specific context. This course acknowledges a constructivist paradigm in the teaching and learning of and about music asserting knowledge as being uniquely constructed by individuals. Learning is facilitated in an environment, which is created and/or constructed by both student teachers and facilitators as stakeholders.
