“…According to Bronfenbrenner (1979), human development is marked by the contexts surrounding the individual, from his inner circle (micro dimension) to the multiple successively larger contexts surrounding him (macro dimension). According to this theoretical point of view, human development consists of the adaptation of the human being to his immediate environment, which includes dimensions such as the person, person and context (interaction with his immediate environment) and person in context and time (interaction as a whole) (Bronfenbrenner, 1979;Moreno et al, 2021).…”

“…Based on this point of view, Bronfenbrenner established the idea of an "ecological environment," that is, an environment that consists of a complex set of systems that interact and influence each other. This environment is made up of: 1) the microsystem, an area of intimate interaction of the child, which includes the interaction of the child with parents and siblings; 2) the mesosystem, the active participation space of the child, which also includes the interrelationships between the groups involved in the microsystem; 3) the exosystem, which includes one or more dimensions in which the child is not an active participant, but which indirectly affect it (laws and the education system); 4) the macrosystem, which refers to the general context of the individual (culture and society); and 5) the chronosystem, the temporal dimension, which includes changes and events that may influence the child's development (Bronfenbrenner, 1979;Moreno et al, 2021). These theoretical perspectives will frame the assessment of the impact of playing in the orchestra on music students' motivation and learning.…”

The Phenomenon of Orchestral Practice: Implications for Student Motivation and Learning - Student’s Point of View

In the studies on musical learning, group musical practice has not been the object of in-depth study. Little is currently known about the impact of playing in an orchestra on students' motivation or learning to study the instrument. In this study, the objective was to understand the phenomenon of musical practice in orchestra to answer the research questions: Does playing in an orchestra generate intrinsic motivation in students? Does it have implications for individual learning and study of the instrument? Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 orchestral students to learn the attitude, feelings and perceptions of the students involved. The content analysis involved: (1) a systematic approach to the data analysis process; (2) the use of data reduction methods; and 3) coding the data into categories. This categorization resulted in what is called “pattern analysis.” The qualitative data analysis indicates that students feel motivated for orchestral practice and that playing in the orchestra can positively affect the student's learning and motivation. The orchestra practice seems to increase the practice time and help develop musical and social skills. Self-determination theory is the one that explains the obtained results. According to this theoretical perspective, to feel motivated for a given task, the individual must fulfil three basic psychological needs: autonomy, competence, and establishment of social bonds. For the students, playing in orchestra seems to be a favorable context for developing autonomy, perception of competence, and establishing social bonds with their peers. Playing in orchestra seems to be the challenge in which the balance between the perception of the difficulty of the task and the perception of being competent to perform it successfully is present. That is an excellent level of challenge.

To reflect and clarify the methodological paths we are following, the objectives of this work were to base the choice of the methodology to be used in our research project related to the Inclusive Education of children with special needs in Arts Education Programmes in Music in Portugal. We started by comparing methodologies used in other research studies on the same theme. We carried out an integrative literature review according to the theme of our study. We began by searching articles through selected keywords in English between 2015 and 2020 in the search engine Google Scholar and b-on, and in the databases: ERIC, Web of Science, and Scopus. All the compiled information was organised and studied through content analysis supported by the webQDA software. We compared methodological options of 40 selected studies. We found 3 empirical studies, 27 studies using an interpretative paradigm and 10 studies using a socio-critical perspective. However, according to the subject of our study, there is only one study using the Action-Research Methodology. Nevertheless, considering the other methodological possibilities, we confirmed that this methodology is the most appropriate for our type of study. The flexibility and collaborative nature of Action-Research is an advantage. The researcher can be considered as part of the reality under study, allowing us to achieve an in-depth understanding of the problems and practical situations. From this perspective, all subjects can be participants in the construction of knowledge, in a continuous dialectical process, in favour of inclusion.

“…In September 2020, one of the CRTIC (Aveiro) in the Central Region in Portugal was contacted by a doctoral student from University of Aveiro, in order to request collaboration to find technological solutions to promote the inclusion of a child with motor disabilities, due to cerebral palsy (CP), in the Arts Education Programmes (AEP) of Music. This request was prompted by his research work, triggered by the enrolment of a child with CP in the First Cycle of Basic Education in a Portuguese AEP school, in the area of music [4,5]. The child in question has a diagnosis of diplegic CP, with a severe dyskinetic form in the upper limbs and moves with a wheelchair.…”

The present study was triggered by the need to find technological solutions to promote the inclusion of a child with cerebral palsy in the Arts Education Programmes of Music in Portugal. With this purpose, a Ph.D. student, together with an ICT Resources Center, conducted an exploratory study, which included a systematic review of literature, between the years 2017 and 2020, with the keyword "accessible digital musical instruments" in different databases. A search on Google search engine was also performed, looking for accessible music apps and online music games available on the Web. As a result, a set of accessible digital musical instruments, music apps and online music games, that can be used to facilitate the access of children and young people with special needs to the teaching and learning of music, is presented. In the conclusions, reference is made to the topicality of this theme, the expensive cost and lack of access to accessible digital musical instruments that still exists, the need for further studies on this theme, and the importance of training those involved in the use of these resources, thus promoting "music for all".
