This project highlights and substantiates with empirical research the great education work happening in Australian orchestral concert halls and the difference they are making to people’s listening experience. By investigating and working alongside professional and community orchestras in both metropolitan and regional settings, this research project investigated the ways that Australian Arts organisations embed education within regular concert programming. By listening to the lifeworld accounts of audience members and Arts professionals, the project has sought to understand how people listen at orchestral concerts, what makes a difference in their meaning making of music, and how they learn and deepen their relationship with the Arts. The findings of the project distil four qualities that contribute to audience education and pedagogies of listening – relationality, balancing tensions, differentiated pedagogy and listening practices, and the ways the concert going experience can enhance learning through listening. The practices of the orchestras included in the project suggest new ways of considering learning within Arts spaces and how orchestral concert experiences can be ‘curated’ to enhance the listener’s learning.

This 1 minute video explores the 'Arts Education Imperatives Research' at the Melbourne Graduate School of Education. Our research is focused on exploring how the arts provide education possibilities to transform personal, social and cultural dimensions. We believe that it is essential we interrogate the positive outcomes of arts rich experiences as we strive to create a more sustainable way of living amidst a growing recognition of systemic inequities and the need for change.

Musicking with Sanjeevani is an initiative (based out of India) where the power of music is experienced and leveraged for personal growth through crafted learning modules and workshops.
It is based on the premise that music is integral to human existence. It has biological, cognitive, spiritual, and cultural implications that hold the potential to transform an individual. For children and youth, ‘musicking’ helps in character building and personality development, while for adults ‘musicking’ serves to fulfil unfulfilled potentials and empower emotionally. For everyone, musicking has a tangible impact on overall health- physical, mental, and emotional.

As a tragic person in ancient Greece, a resurgent by the archaeologists and a little ambassador of United Nations, Myrtis connects the current Coronavirus Pandemic to the Great Athenian Plague, and encourages the young children all over the world to fight against diseases and hunger. After the translation of the video “Myrtis” which is an initiative by Prof. Manolis J. Papagrigorakis and United Nations Regional Information Centre for Western Europe, we decided to introduce Myrtis to Chinese children through drama classes in the primary schools. Though Myrtis was not familiar to Chinese children, the story attracted the children immediately, and caused their thinking to the current pandemic which they are living in. It would be helpful for the children to see the influences of the pandemic to their lives, to see the changes on their future, to understand the world. link to the project: https://www.miaobin.net/blog/from-ancient-athens-of-plague-to-modern-china-of-coronavirus |

‘ We are working online, using an education platform, and for this specific project we used a digital tool to create the sand paintings, in an abstract style. The project is a success because even the students who wouldnt't usually engage during lessons were fascinated by the process of creating the artwork, choosing the colors, thinking about the composition, and so on’.
