LEARNING THROUGH MOVEMENT IN MUSIC EDUCATION APPROACHES

Rad objavljen u zborniku sa međunarodnog naučnog skupa „Nauka i obrazovanje – izazovi i perspektive”, održanog 21. oktobra 2022. godine na Pedagoškom fakultetu u Užicu Univerziteta u Kragujevcu.The movement is related to dance and play, and it is significant for the musical development of an individual and his/her perception of music. Some research results show that learning through movement is familiar to children and can contribute to their development in many aspects (musicality, creativity, but also to their cognitive, social and physical development). Some approaches to music education focusing on the child, which is an imperative of modern upbringing and education, emphasize the importance of understanding the content of learning through sensory perception and practical activities. Music is associated with speech, movement and play, as these elements coexist in children. The paper gives an overview of approaches and methods (Dalcroze, Orff, Kodaly, Gordon) in music education in which movement has a dominant role and significance, as it activates not only the body and the mind, but also encourages the perception of music and its means of expression.Publishe
