Samenvatting
In the Netherlands and many other parts of the world, music education can be characterized as predominantly teacher directed and focusing on group-based singing, instrumental music making and moving to music. This interpretation of music education seems to be largely based on a dominant Eurocentric concept of musical talent that equates musicality with having musical performance skills, a concept that negatively affects many people's musical confidence, including that of teachers. It is therefore not surprising that a large body of research reports on generalist teachers feeling incompetent to teach music. This dissertation focuses on raising awareness of the potential of musical play in early years music education, and on exploring the extent to which it contributes to early years teachers’ ability and self-confidence to teach music. More specifically, it explores the impact of professional development in musical play on teachers’ efficacy for music education. It aims to answer the following overarching research question: To what extent and under which conditions can musical play be implemented in early years education? |
