The teacher mainly leads students’ reflections from the analysis of practical issues to establish key principles in music education.

Throughout the course, the relationship between what is spoken within the Faculty classroom and what happens to the school classrooms will be fostered, through the voice of the music specialists or through some visits and / or interventions in schools. 

Some group works will begin or will take place during the face-to-face sessions and under the supervision of the teacher.
