Abstract
The Spanish Society for Music Education ( Sociedad para la Educación Musical del Estado Español, SEM-EE in its Spanish acronym), has been dedicated to music education for almost half a century. Even so, it is currently difficult to find studies on its activity or impact. The aim of this study is to learn about the achievements, difficulties, and goals for SEM-EE that have emerged along the way and will come in the future. This has been done through a qualitative phenomenological study, analyzing 18 interviews carried out with members of the boards of directors, and codified through Atlas.ti software program. The results show that some of the greatest achievements of this organization have been to carry out activities, facilitate the connection between professionals from different fields of music education, and the promotion of music research. The lack of support, both institutional and from the educational community, along with scarce economic resources were some of the most noted difficulties. Future goals point to promoting more dialog with the administration, and the improvement of technological resources. The implications of this work can be relevant for music teaching professionals interested in the advancement of music education based on bringing together different collectives.
西班牙音乐教育协会(Sociedad para la Educación Musical del Estado Español,西班牙语首字母缩略词SEM-EE)致力于音乐教育近半个世纪。尽管如此,目前很难找到关于其活动或影响的研究。本研究的目的是了解SEM-EE已经出现的成就、困难和未来的目标。这是通过定性现象学研究完成的,分析了与董事会成员进行的18次访谈,并通过Atlas编纂。Ti软件程序。结果表明,该组织的一些最大成就是开展活动,促进不同领域音乐教育专业人员之间的联系,促进音乐研究。缺乏体制和教育界的支持,加上缺乏经济资源,是一些最明显的困难。未来的目标是促进与行政部门的更多对话,并改善技术资源。这项工作的含义可以相关的音乐教学专业人士对音乐教育的进步感兴趣的基础上汇集不同的集体。
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.
