Q3: [Curriculum]
How could an understanding of user-initiated, non-institutional, mediated learning
inform music curriculum?
The proliferation of digital technologies young people are exposed to creates
a complex media environment. Within this environment young people are
developing identities, expressing creativity, they are motivated and engaged to
spend many hours a day evolving their skills and abilities. Developing an
understanding of how and what young people are learning in this process has the
potential to inform approaches to curriculum. Specifically, to better understand
music learning practices out-of-school could provide insights to music curriculum
and pedagogy development.
