| description | During her tenure as Chair of the Department of Solfege, at the Faculty of Music, University of Arts in Belgrade (Serbia), Vera Milankovic founded the Pedagogical Forum of Performing Arts, in 1998. The initial idea was to form a platform for educators, who had no previous opportunities to showcase and exchange their rich pedagogical experiences in research and teaching. The Pedagogical Forum gradually advanced towards facilitating discourse in performing, musicology and music theory, including drama pedagogy and special education and rehabilitation. At present, the Pedagogical Forum celebrates the running of an international symposium dedicated to teaching and learning in all performing arts. |

| description | MET 2018 Researching Music - Education - Technology (MET2018) 26–27 March 2018 Following the great success of its inaugural conference held by the University of Hull in 2010, MET2014, and MET2016 at IOE London, this fourth two-day conference (#sempreMET) was hosted by the Department of culture, Communication & Media, IOE, University College London, at the University of London’s iconic Senate House. Although the 'musicking' humanity has been reliant on technology from the very beginning of its musical journey, we cannot deny that, nowadays, technology changes, develops, and its role is being redefined at a dramatically greater rate. This sempre conference aimed to celebrate technology's challenging role(s) and provide a platform for critical discourse and the presentation of scholarly work in the broader fields of digital technologies in: music composition and creation music performance music production (recording, studio work, archival and/or communication of music) diverse musical genres (e.g. popular, classical, world, etc.) creativity/ies real world praxial contexts (e.g. classroom, studio, etc.) assessment of musical development and/or assessment of performance computational musicology music and Big Data (a special call for chapters for an edited OUP VOLUME will be posted soon) the music industry special educational contexts/needs The conference provided opportunities for colleagues to present and discuss ideas in a friendly and supportive environment, as well as to provide a meeting point for academics, scholars, teachers, and practitioners who were seeking to form connections and synergies with participants from around the world. |
