    Creative Pedagogies with Technology: Future Proofing Teaching Training in Music
    de Bruin, L ; Merrick, B ; Henriksen, D ; Mishra, P (Springer International Publishing, 2022)
    In this chapter, the authors will consider the benefits and challenges of enacting creative pedagogical approaches in the tertiary context and examine emerging educational practices about twenty-first century learning and technology. Creativity continues to be a key construct for twenty-first century music education practice and education, incorporating technology that delivers deeper and more profound learning experiences- that paradoxically isolate individual learning yet at the same time provoke reflection, growth, and sustainability. This chapter explores the delivery of a tertiary degree in Music Teaching, specifically addressing the following areas: • Curriculum design, delivery, and assessment, • Entrepreneurial approaches to learning through student centred activity, • Online learning, student access, self-regulation, and self-assessment, • Learning environments (including online and technology-based practice) that mirror global change, capacities, and expectations. Through a combination of annotated examples of teaching practice, selected research, and related theoretical reference, this chapter will propose a range of creative, innovative learning solutions. Importantly, this chapter draws on research undertaken with graduate students after their year of learning during the COVID pandemic and subsequently provides insights into these four areas and their influence on the students’ learning. This is supported by a discussion of a range of teaching approaches and strategies that can be used to foster creativities and shifts in teaching practice.
