Prospective Classroom Teachers’ Attitudes toward Music Education in Teacher Education Program

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine prospective classroom teachers’ attitudes toward

music in the classroom teacher education program in Turkey in terms of demographics, (a)

including musical background and experiences, (b) comfort level integrating music with core

and other subjects, (c) their perceptions of importance of subjects in the teaching program,

and (d) the level of importance of outcomes of the general music education. During academic

year 2014–2015, the Elementary Music Education Survey was applied to prospective teachers

(N = 399). Participants stated that elementary classroom teachers should possess the skills to

conduct music lessons but that they should be instructed by music teachers if possible. Results

revealed that extramusical outcomes significantly more important than nonperformance and

performance outcomes.
