罢颈迟濒别:听Narrative Inquiries in Music Education

础产蝉迟谤补肠迟:听The point of departure for this talk is to offer an invitation to a dialogue about narrative inquiry in music education research. It is also an opportunity to present an upcoming book, on Springer edited by me, Kari Holdhus and Amira Ehrlich, entitled: "Methodological Musings: Thinking with Narrative in Music Education Research. See: Methodological Musings: Thinking with Narrative in Music Education Research I Springerlink. The book emerged after the international conference "Narrative Inquiry in Music Education, NIME8", organized by Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, my home institution. See: ... /welcome-to-the-nime8-conference- 2022/ After the conference, we invited participants and other researchers in the field to contribute in an anthology targeting methodological issues in narrative research. Writing narratively often implies personal involvement of the researcher. How do we, as a community of researchers, cope with the position of "self" and "I" in our research? On what level is self-reflexivity relevant when working narratively? What kinds of questions do we bring to the table when we do research from the insider's position? Are we able to discuss blind spots in our own research? How can changes of position open our eyes to new ways of perceiving? Such reflective questions can bring us into a landscape with greater awareness of how the "gaze" of researchers is constituted. It could lead to interesting discussions about transparency and the need for sharing how we conduct our inquiries, and not only narrative inquiries. Methodological awareness is a matter in all research.

叠颈辞驳谤补辫丑测:听Tiri Bergesen Schei is Professor (Dr. Art.) in Music Education and Head of the strategic research program "Arts, Creativity and Cultural Practices" at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences (HVL). She has for many years been responsible for the PhD-course "Theory of sciences, ethics and academic writing" at HVL. Being in dialogue with students about research methods and positionality in research is a core interest. She was a co-founder of the "Grieg Research School in Interdisciplinary Music Studies" (GRS) in 2010 and for ten years she participated actively in the research school and its scientific advisory board. Schei got her doctoral degree from the University of Bergen in 2007. She is an experienced music teacher, singer, teacher educator and academic supervisor. As a researcher she has explored emotional, relational, and cultural aspects of vocal performance, by elucidating the perceived norms that govern what it means to be "a real professional singer", and how "voice shame" may lead to self-censorship and conformity. Her recent research targets the functions of arts-based approaches in education and topics related to creative and artistic activities with children. Narrative inquiry has been an important approach in recent publications.
