Abstract

This chapter considers music technology from the perspective of young people, both inside and outside the classroom. It positions music technology within the role of the contemporary classroom music teacher and theorises these approaches within frameworks of critical pedagogy and the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK) model. The chapter discusses the multi-modal nature of digital technologies in schools, and considers how music technology can feature in musical interactions beyond the music classroom and across a school community. The place of digital technologies in young people’s musical development, and pedagogies to facilitate and enable this learning, are also addressed. The chapter concludes by considering how to develop digital thinking in a field which is constantly changing and developing, thereby equipping music teachers to be responsive and reflective practitioners.
