Overview
Evaluation is a natural component of the listening experience and plays essential parts in the assessment of students’ academic achievement as well as a pedagogical tool in supporting and guiding students’ artistic development.
However, for performance evaluation to constitute a valuable pedagogical means it is necessary to assure as much as possible transparency and systematicity in the assessment process, as well as an adequate form of feedback that can be constructively implemented by students in their daily practice.
This project investigates processes and criteria of performance evaluation in use at the HSLU. It aims at promoting awareness of the different dimensions of heterogeneity embedded in the daily musical and academic practice and at highlighting areas of assessment processes potentially open to further development.
