We are pleased to invite you to a participatory webinar on “Artistic Research as an Element in Curriculum Development”.
Artistic Research (AR) initially found its place in European Higher Music Education Institutions (HMEIs) in the third cycle, with little systematic introduction in earlier stages of study. However, this is changing. Two Erasmus+ Cooperation Partnership projects—REACT and RAPP Lab—have played a key role in advancing AR in higher music education. Following their successful collaboration, we are hosting this webinar to reflect on recent developments and explore future directions.
This session will provide insights into the evolving role of AR in music education and encourage discussion among educators, researchers, and students.
When?
The webinar will take place on 24 March from 9:30 to 12:00 CET.
Anyone interested in the topic is very welcome to join in to discuss together with experts in the field and with colleagues questions such as:
- Do student-centredness and reflectiveness enhance the employability of music graduates? And if so, why?
- How can AR contribute to meeting the challenges a professional musician in the 21st century faces?
- How can AR contribute to making HMEIs more inclusive?
- What can AR contribute to innovate in music performance study programmes?
- How to create learning and teaching contexts that enable students and teachers to contextualise, explore and share AR practices in music performance?
- How to create learning and teaching contexts that enable students and teachers to see their roles and tasks as professional musicians in a broader social context?
