A new researcher blog on instrument pedagogy
In her new blog, Dr. Guadalupe López-Íñiguez, University Researcher, Academy Research Fellow, and Docent at Uniarts Helsinki offers new research-based approaches and viewpoints to instrumental pedagogy at all educational levels, from music schools to higher education.
The particular focus of is on student-centered pedagogies that prioritize the physical and psychological health of music students, support their socio-emotional development, and challenge overused power hierarchies in the music studio.
The first posts are about respecting the rights of gifted children in the performing arts and adult responsibilities in taking care of musically gifted children.
