Presentation
Speaker: Philip Ahner
The short lecture will address current developments in the field of artistic and artistic-pedagogical music study programmes and music teacher training at the University of Music Trossingen on the basis of current projects at the university . The focus is on the development of teaching-learning scenarios in the context of hybrid, digital and virtual environments in artistic practice (e.g. individual artistic lessons or chamber music) and other music-related areas of learning (e.g. music theory). Building on this, perspectives for future teaching-learning scenarios in the context of artificial intelligence and corresponding learning experience platforms (LXP) are sketched out.

Moderation by Stefan Gies
10:45 – 11:05
Presentation
Speaker: Susanne van Els
At the Conservatoire National Supérieur Musique et Danse de Lyon, we are in the exciting period of the reform of the Master of Music programs. All the obvious reasons and goals played a role in starting this process: differentiation of the cycles, cohesion within the program and embedding research, bridging the gap between education and professional life, modelling collaborative master programs with the professional practice, synching with students’ lives and the student’s perspective.
This short presentation highlights how the work of the L&T group not only determined the underlying principles for the new master model but also provides guidance for a variety of day-to-day pedagogical and managerial developmental processes.
The issue of digitisation is placed in the context of a, both artistic and pedagogical, key principle: presence.
11:05 – 11:15
