Inhoud
The aim of the Practice-based Research (PBR) course in the Master of Music (MMus) is to learn basic research skills that help you to develop your professional music practice. When working towards performance or teaching goals several questions may emerge. These might be artistic questions or questions related to psychological or social issues. Practice-based research helps to explore such questions in a systematic way, and to reflect on the relevance of various sources for practice and research.
Therefore, the aims of the PBR course are:
During semester 1, you learn several research skills: How to look for reliable sources, how to compile an annotated bibliography, developing a research design, designing a Research Poster to communicate plans visually and writing a Research Proposal.
At the end of semester 1 you submit a Research Poster and a Research Proposal. The Research Proposal should contain the following elements: 1) Introduction; 2) Description of Research Aim and Questions; 3) Research Design; 4) Source List.
The Research Proposal facilitates the research process and forms the starting point for the draft research report in semester 3.
Therefore, the aims of the PBR course are:
- To develop research skills as tools for the development of practice
- To develop professional music practice using a research-informed approach
- How to form useful research questions
- How to conduct a literature search that informs your research project
- How to conduct your research in a systematic way using an appropriate methodology
- How to analyse the information that you find in your research
- How to share your research findings with others in writing and speaking.
