About this book
The contributions to this volume aim to stimulate discussion about the role of assessment in the learning experiences of students in music and other creative and performing arts settings. The articles offer insights on how assessment can be employed in the learning setting to enhance outcomes for students both during their studies at higher education institutions and after graduation.
An international group of leading researchers offers an exciting array of papers that focus on the practice of assessment in music, particularly in higher education settings. Contributions reflect on self-, peer- and alternative assessment practices in this environment. There is a particular emphasis on the alignment between assessment, curriculum structure and pedagogy.
Reviews
"As one of the forum attendees at the Queensland Conservatorium’s symposium on Assessment in Music, I can offer the view that this will be a highly significant publication in the field of creative arts learning and teaching and is likely to become a ‘must-read’ resource". Professor Jonathan Holmes, Honorary Fellow at the University of Tasmania, Australia
