Cómo organizar el proceso de enseñanza musical de forma intercultural: propuestas para trabajar interculturalmente en el área de primaria

Abstract

This article offers an approach to intercultural education through the process of music teaching, since music tells us about people and how they interact with the world.

Currently, teachers have to face new challenges derived from migratory processes. In order to offer them new possibilities, this article contains open and flexible activities which imply a new role for teachers. Besides, these professionals require new abilities for adequately performing their complex task, which include teamwork as the main strategy when facing difficulties originated by curricular design, and the integration of information and communication technologies.

These proposals, which are provided with intercultural goals and suitable assessment tools, aim to consolidate intercultural values thanks to the enrichment obtained by the practice of music, as well as to ensure the knowledge of the different cultures present in the classroom so that children learn both to respect and to get to know “the other”.
