In this way, it addresses a pressing need to provide new ways of thinking about the application of music and technology in schools. More specifically it: covers a diverse and wide range of technology, environments and contexts on topics that demonstrate and recognize new possibilities for innovative work in music in education; deals with teaching strategies and approaches that stimulate different forms of musical experience, meaningful engagement, musical learning, creativity and teacher-learner interactions, responses, monitoring and assessment; investigates how teachers and pupils voice and value their experiences in particular contexts and environments with specific software, hardware and forms of technology; explores the professional development aspects involved in teachers and learners utilising and interacting with technology and the secondary music curriculum; and, introduces reflective practices and research methodologies of great interest and relevance to music teachers, teacher-trainers, community artists and for researchers and professional practitioners alike.
