Erfarenheter av musikundervisning i grundskolan : En intervjustudie av hur musikundervisningen i grundskolan skiljer sig mellan stadierna / Experiences of music education in primary school : An interview study of how music education in primary school differs between stages

Buréus, Emma January 2016 (has links)
Syftet med föreliggande studie är att undersöka hur musikundervisningen i årskurs 1-6 påverkar förväntningen på och inställningen till musikundervisningen i årskurs 7-9. I bakgrunden presenteras en genomgång av tidigare och nu rådande läroplaner för grundskolan samt granskningar och forskning som gjorts inom området. Data har samlats in genom kvalitativa respondentintervjuer med fyra individer i åldrarna 15-25. Intervjuerna har transkriberats, bearbetats och analyserats utifrån ett sociokulturellt perspektiv. Resultatet visar att respondenterna upplevt skillnader mellan musikundervisningen i årskurs 1-6 och 7-9, framför allt i tillgång till lokal och utrustning. Resultatet visar också att respondenterna upplever att musikämnet saknat progression genom grundskolan och det framkommer att undervisningen upplevts som mer seriös från den årskurs då betyg skulle sättas. Respondenternas upplevelser av grundskolans musikundervisning och vad som påverkat upplevelsen diskuteras slutligen i förhållande till den litteratur som presenterats. / The aim of the present study is to investigate how music education in grades 1-6 affects expectations of and attitudes towards music education in grades 7-9. The background presents a review of previous and current curricula for primary schools, as well as audits and research done in the field. Data was collected through qualitative interviews with four subjects aged 15-25. The interviews were transcribed, processed and analyzed from a sociocultural perspective. After analyzing the interviews, the results show that the respondents experienced differences between music teaching in grades 1-6 and 7-9, especially regarding access to locale and equipment. The results also show that respondents feel that the subject of music lacked progression throughout primary school, and it appears that music education is perceived as more serious in conjunction with the first school year in which the students’ work was officially graded. Finally, respondents' perceptions of primary school music education and factors affecting the experience are discussed in relation to the literature presented.

Beyond words: newly-arrived children's perceptions of music learning and music making

Howell, Gillian January 2009 (has links)
This thesis examines the way refugee and immigrant children, newly-arrived in Australia, perceive and describe music learning and music making. Sited in a specialist English Language School for primary school-age new arrivals, it explores the meaning that children from diverse cultural backgrounds and prior schooling experiences ascribe to their music classes and experiences, inviting their perceptions of what they are learning, how they learn it, what aspects of the music program most engage and motivate them, and what sense they make of the music program and its existence at this school. / The study also focuses on the methodological issues at play in a research context where multiple languages, culture shock, and pre-adolescent children with unknown pre-migration experiences, coincide with a subject matter that does not lend itself easily to spoken descriptions. These include issues of interpretation and assigning meaning, and the way that different cultural values and expectations can influence participants’ responses. The researcher sought to develop research methods and tools that would effectively elicit the children’s responses, supporting them in the unfamiliar research environment, while remaining sensitive to their preferred ways of communicating. / This is a qualitative multiple case study that focuses on three individual students from diverse cultural and schooling backgrounds, with the school’s music program being the issue or concern upon which they offer their different perspectives. Both within-case and cross-case analysis was utilised, and a phenomenological approach to the inquiry was embedded within the case-study structure and research design. Data were gathered by means of interviews and participant observation, and were analysed and interpreted for emergent categories and themes, and for the additional meanings hidden between what was not said, or within awkward language, using interpretive poetics methods and direct interpretations of individual instances. / Discussion points and conclusions include the significance of the music pedagogy in building shared understanding among culturally-diverse children, the impact of culture shock on children’s perceptions, the importance of social learning contexts for newly-arrived children, and methodological challenges and recommendations for research with a similar cohort of children.
