| dc.description.abstract | The research findings presented in this portfolio share the situated experiences of five independent music teachers (IMTs) within a collaborative action research project contextualized within a critical analysis of the field of independent music teaching in Canada. IMTs work in isolation in their studios and except for occasional meetings organized by Registered Music Teachers' Associations (RMTA), they rarely meet professionally. The Independent Music Teachers' Research Group, (IMTRG) was formed from members of the Halifax Chapter of the Nova Scotia Registered Music Teachers' Association with the purpose of developing collaborative research, breaking professional isolation and enhancing the usual ways in which IMTs gain knowledge. The research program reported in this portfolio was undertaken by a founding member of the IMTRG with the aim of investigating how IMTs engaged in research and the changes this made not only to their own professional practice but to the field more broadly. | |
