Kodaly method, which did not commonly used in Turkey and known less when compared to other music methods, is important and distinctive because of being a system instead of an approach. One of the most important factors creating this difference is Kodaly’s effectiveness on solmization education. This method’s effectiveness on range thinking and perceiving harmonic structure compared to classical solmization education is being supported by findings of varied studies. Kodaly method is a whole in which every need adressed meticulously and stages edited in order to fulfil indicated needs. Kodaly, which based on assumption that every individual’s instrument is her voice, emphasized the importance of active participation in music education, aimed to develop hearing ability and musical literacy, does have an important place in early music education. In music education, it is aimed to train individuals who have musical literacy from childhood to adulthood. Music educators’ and music teacher candidates’ knowledge and adoption of practices such as Kodaly method, integration of these practices with their prior knowledge and own methods, would help next generation to approach music and life more actively and lively. Therefore, aim of this study is to present knowledge about Kodaly method, philosophy and method tools and also present a sample solmization course prepared according to Kodaly systematic.Extended English abstract is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetÜlkemizde yaygın olarak kullanılmayan ve diğer müzik eğitimi yöntemleriyle kıyaslandığında daha az tanınan Kodaly yöntemi, bir yaklaşım değil, bir sistem olması nedeniyle farklılık ve önem taşır. Bu farklılığı yaratan en önemli unsurlardan biri, solfej eğitimi konusunda etkili olmasıdır. Yöntemin, aralık düşünme ve armonik yapıyı algılamada, klasik solfej eğitimine göre daha etkili olduğu çeşitli araştırma bulgularıyla da desteklenmiştir. Kodaly yöntemi, müzik öğrenimi yolunda her gereksinimin titizlikle belirlendiği ve bu gereksinimlere yanıt vermek üzere her aşamanın özenle kurgulandığı bir bütündür. Temel çalgısının her bireyin kendi sesi olduğu görüşü üzerine oturtulan, müzik eğitimine aktif katılımın öneminin her zaman vurgulandığı, işitme becerisinin geliştirilmesi ve müzikal okuryazarlığın artmasının amaçlandığı yöntemde, erken dönem müzik eğitimi önemli bir yer kaplar. Çocukluktan başlayıp yetişkinliğe kadar uzanarak müzikal anlamda okuryazar bireylerin yetiştirilmesi hedeflenir. Müzik eğitimcileri ve müzik öğretmeni adaylarının Kodaly yöntemi gibi uygulamaları tanıyarak ve benimseyerek kendi yöntemleri ve var olan bilgileriyle harmanlamaları, gelecek nesillerin müziğe, dolayısıyla yaşama daha aktif ve sevgi ile yaklaşmalarına yardımcı olabilir. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada, Kodaly yöntemi, felsefesi ve yöntem araçları ile ilgili bilgilere yer verilmiş, solfej eğitimine katkıda bulunmak amacıyla Kodaly sistematiği gözetilerek örnek bir solfej dersi sunulmuştur.

This difference was on behalf of primary school teacher candidates. Another conclusion of the research was the gender variable. In all values except power, significant difference was on behalf of females. When the value scores of primary school and music teacher candidates were examined, all the values except for power were on behalf of freshmen. It was seen that there were significant differences between the teacher candidates’ academic achievement perceptions and their value scores of achievement, stimulation, self-direction, universalism, benevolence, tradition, conformity and security except power and hedonism values. Findings related to cheating, which was another variance of the research, are as follows; cheating attitudes of primary school and music teacher candidates were moderate. It was detected that the participants had negative attitudes towards cheating. A significant difference was detected in cheating attitude according to the department.

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric quality of Educative Teacher Performance Assessment (edTPA) scores for 136 preservice music teachers at a Midwest university. I addressed the factor structure of the edTPA for music education, the extent to which the edTPA fits the one- and three-factor a priori models proposed by the test authors, and the reliability of edTPA scores awarded to music education students. Factor analysis did not support the a priori one-factor model around teacher readiness, or the three-factor model based on the edTPA tasks of Planning, Instruction, and Assessment. Internal consistency was acceptable for all rubrics together and for the Instruction task. However, estimates of interrater reliability fell substantially below those reported by test administrators. These findings indicate the need for revision of the edTPA for music education and call into question its continued use among music teacher candidates in its current form.

The purpose of the study is to examine the music teacher candidates' awareness of music applications and software, their frequency of use and purpose of use in terms of gender and grade level variables. The study group consists of 452 students studying in department of music education in 6 universities in Turkey during the 2018-2019 academic year. In order to collect data, a two-part questionnaire developed by the researcher was used.According to the results of the research, it was seen that music teacher candidates who are aware of the existence of applications for music notation, applications containing instruments for music performance, applications for listening/watching music and applications for recording/mixing stage were quite high compared to those who were not aware. It was observed that the number of those who were not aware of the applications of instrument education, applications of choir/singing and applications of music theory and hearing education were higher than those who were aware. It was seen that the most commonly used applications were applications that include instruments for music performance and applications for listening/watching music. It was seen that applications for choir/singing, applications for instrument education, applications for music theory and hearing education, and applications for recording/mixing stage were rarely used.According to the results obtained from the research, applications for music theory and hearing education, applications for instrument education and applications that include instruments for music performance were mostly used for professional development. It was found that applications for writing notes were mostly used for homework. Applications for listening/watching music, recording / mixing stage and chorus/singing applications were mostly used for entertainment purposes.The results of the study showed that music teacher candidates were less familiar with applications and software especially for the performance aspect of music. According to the results, it can be said that music teacher candidates do not know music applications and software adequately.

The main purpose of this chapter is to synthesize the literature regarding courses for secondary instruments in the interest of making recommendations for promising practices. The chapter also is intended to “push boundaries from within the system” of music teacher education. That is, it is intended to be a resource for those who prepare preservice music teachers (PMTs) for the realities of P-12 school-based music education and who aspire to instill in these new colleagues a disposition toward change. The chapter is divided into six sections: importance of secondary instrument courses, characteristics and configurations of secondary instrument courses, focus and content of secondary instrument courses, peer teaching activities and field experiences within secondary instrument courses, recommendations for promising practices (including professional development beyond the preservice music education curriculum and an institutional model for secondary instrument courses), and future considerations.

The Impact

The impact of teacher dispositions on the professional development of preservice music teachers (PMTs) has been substantiated. This chapter describes an approach to dispositional development within the structure of an introduction to music education course. A teacher concerns model is used to organize this systematic approach through three developmental stages that include self-concerns, teaching task concerns, and student learning concerns. A series of 11 critical questions are presented for use in guiding PMTs’ dispositional development through these developmental stages. Activities to engage PMTs in the exploration of each of these questions are detailed for use by music teacher educators desiring to engage PMTs in dispositional development.
