Few aspects of daily existence are untouched by technology. Learning and teaching

music are no exceptions and arguably have been impacted as much or more than other areas of life. Digital technologies have come to affect music learning and teaching in profound ways, influencing how we create, listen, share, consume, interact, and conceptualize musical practices and the musical experience. For a discipline as entrenched in tradition as music education, this has brought forth myriad views on what does and should constitute music learning and teaching.

To tease out and elucidate some of the salient problems, interests, and issues, The Oxford Handbook of Technology and Music Education critically situates technology in relation to music education from a variety of perspectives: historical; philosophical; socio-cultural; pedagogical; musical; economic; policy, organized around four broad themes: Emergence and Evolution; Locations and Contexts: Social and Cultural Issues; Experiencing, Expressing, Learning and Teaching; and Competence, Credentialing, and Professional Development. Chapters from a highly diverse group of junior and senior scholars provide analyses of technology and music education through intersections of gender, theoretical perspective, geographical distribution, and relationship to the field. The Oxford Handbook of Technology and Music Education's dedication to diversity and forward-facing discussion promotes contrasting perspectives and conversational voices rather than reinforce traditional narratives and prevailing discourses.

Reviews for The Oxford Handbook of Technology and Music Education

"""Representing eight different countries, authors offering core perspectives bring expertise in school and community music, industry, research, teacher education, and other related fields. These authors and 19 others contribute further perspectives that expound on and sometimes differ from core perspectives. Authors explore music education and technology broadly, both inside and outside of the traditional school setting; consider benefits of interdisciplinary activity; and question the discrete roles of composer, performer, and producer that become increasingly blurred by social networking and inexpensive software and hardware...Readers are invited to enter the conversation through an online forum at the Oxford website."" --P.D. Sanders, The Ohio State University at Newark, Choice"
