Abstract

Preservice music educators’ (PMEs) experiences teaching students with disabilities (SwD) often occurs through general education coursework. Researchers have examined the effect of content-specific course work on PMEs preparation to teach music to SwD but have not examined if differences in course and clinical settings impact their self-reported feelings of self-efficacy. The purpose of this study was to examine whether differences in the delivery (online or in-person) of music-specific coursework and clinicals affected PMEs confidence to teach music to SwD. Students who participated in an online course reported a significant decrease in their self-efficacy ( t (17) = 3.57, p = .002, d = 0.89), while those who participated in an in-person course reported a significant increase ( t (10) = 7.116, p = .001, d = 2.15). Although no statistical significance was found between groups ( t (28) = 0.976, p = .33, d = 0.36), a comparative analysis of interview data provided nuanced differences. Applications for preservice music educator needs and instruction are discussed.

在特殊教育课程学习之后，职前音乐教育工作者在教授残疾学生方面的自我效能感：混合方法比较研究

职前音乐教育工作者（PMEs）教授残疾学生（SwD）的经验通常是通过普通教育课程学习获得的。研究人员已经研究了特定内容的课程学习对职前音乐教育工作者准备教授残障学生音乐的影响，但尚未研究课程和临床环境的不同是否会影响他们自我报告的自我效能感。本研究的目的是考察音乐特定课程和临床的授课方式（在线或面对面）是否会影响专业音乐教师教授残障人士音乐的信心。参加在线课程的学生的自我效能感显著下降（t (17) = 3.57，p = .002，d = 0.89），而参加面授课程的学生的自我效能感显著上升（t (10) = 7.116，p = .001，d = 2.15）。虽然组间没有统计学意义 ( t (28) = 0.976, p = .33, d = 0.36)，但对访谈数据的比较分析提供了细微的差异。本文讨论了该研究在职前音乐教育者需求和教学中的应用。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Music Education (IJME) is a peer-reviewed journal published by the International Society for Music Education (ISME) four times a year. Manuscripts published are scholarly works, representing empirical research in a variety of modalities. They enhance knowledge regarding the teaching and learning of music with a special interest toward an international constituency. Manuscripts report results of quantitative or qualitative research studies, summarize bodies or research, present theories, models, or philosophical positions, etc. Papers show relevance to advancing the practice of music teaching and learning at all age levels with issues of direct concern to the classroom or studio, in school and out, private and group instruction. All manuscripts should contain evidence of a scholarly approach and be situated within the current literature. Implications for learning and teaching of music should be clearly stated, relevant, contemporary, and of interest to an international readership.
