Music teacher education (or music education) is a field of practice that trains educators for careers as elementary or secondary music teachers, and school or music conservatory ensemble directors. It is also an area of research that deals with the ways of teaching and learning music. Music education encompasses various domains of learning, including the psychomotor domain (responsible for development of skills), the cognitive domain (responsible for acquisition of knowledge) and the affective domain (responsible for internalization of knowledge), along with music appreciation and sensitivity. Some of the major focus areas related to future research and practice in music teacher education include research education and research as intervention, reflexivity and professional learning in intercultural encounters, the capacity to aspire in music teacher education, and intercultural music education as political engagement. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to music teacher education. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area of study as well as for music teachers.
