Constructivism in General Music Education: A Music Teacher's Lived Experience

Abstract

dc:description

Over years of constructivist practice, new questions and concerns emerged from time to time and challenged Dr. Miller to work them out. However, as learned from her experience, by arriving at a new set of questions or dilemmas, Dr. Miller had shown herself to have gained a higher level of understanding not only of what she knew but also of her capacity to inquire into these new dilemmas and new situations of uncertainty in teaching music. Implications and recommendations were provided at the end of the study for music teachers who have read or heard about Constructivism and wish to consider the implications of the theory to their practice in the future.
