Project time line

This page contains the proposed time line for this project and allows you to access information relating to how this project came into being

Year 1 - Phase 1 - 2007

Date Activity
December 15th (2006) Launch of project website
January Masters students from University of Tasmania and Griffith University begin creating real-world problems. Students will describe a music learning context and music learning problem that arises from their own professional experience. These will be posted online. Students will also have to 'solve' their music learning problems and interact with one another using the website.
April Students will complete an online questionnaire about their findings. Approaches to student learning will be monitored, evaluated and refined.
June Project team will meet to evaluate and refine approaches to student learning and academic collaborative relationships across the sites in response to student and staff feedback.
August - October Pre-service teachers from the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) and Deakin University will begin using the website as part of their learning and assessment. Students will need to provide solutions to the problems posted by teachers, comment on discussions associated with these problems and reflect on the possible solutions. Students will regularly reflect on their experience by writing in an online journal. Implement refined strategies across all four university sites in Australia for generalist and music education students.
