In the last decade, two curriculum reforms were adopted to strengthen the education system and improve the quality of the curriculum. Thus, the current English language curriculum of upper-secondary education has adopted a competency-based approach. This approach has been reflected significantly in the area of education, particularly curriculum. It was developed by aligning with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). The present article aims to investigate the influence of the CEFR's in the English language curriculum of upper-secondary education. The learning objectives in the English language curriculum of upper-secondary education and the CEFR's communicative language activities were examined in terms of reception, production and interaction activities to attempt to explore the inaccuracy and the differences between the learning objectives and communicative language activities. It embraces document analysis which is a form of qualitative research. As it applies this methodological approach, it aspires to provide possible implications to respond more effectively to the English language teaching and learning in Mongolia.

However, to reach the current development in SEE, apart from the effort of individual nations, the roles of the European Union (EU) in uniting and strengthening the SEE concept across its member states is significant. This paper employs document analysis method as the main tool to accentuate the roles of the EU in this development process. It first identifies the educational context and policies articulated by the EU as the foundation for the induction and inception of SEE into the area, which are reviewed afterward. Finally, the current module of SEE adopted across the EU members is introduced as an illustration of the EU's effort to bolster SEE in their regional area. This paper presents a good example of how a regional union unites and boosts their regional development in general and particularly educational innovation.

A scrutinizing analysis of a music course’s curriculum can disclose complex power structures that interfere with the social perception not only of the courses’ direct stakeholders but also with the perception of general members of society. In this context, the current article has as its main aim to reflect on possible connections between the establishment of the curriculum of an influential higher education music institution and the general social perception toward different types of musical knowledge. Influenced by a postcolonial perspective and focused on Salvador, a Brazilian northeastern city, this investigation has three specific aims to support the general purpose: 1) to review the literature which discusses the connections between social struggles and curriculum development; 2) to contextualize the Federal University o...

Em meio a diversas organizações voltadas para o ensino superior de música, a Escola de Música (EMUS) da Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA) têm se destacado no desenvolvimento e disseminação desse tipo de conhecimento. Focando nessa instituição, o presente artigo tem como objetivo geral discutir possíveis intenções e implicações da análise das tradições musicais de matriz africana para sua aplicação no estudo de instrumentos musicais em geral. Derivado deste, três objetivos específicos podem ser descritos: 1) apresentar publicações endossadas pela EMUS-UFBA que focam a aplicação de conhecimentos musicais afro-brasileiros no estudo de instrumentos musicais “não afro-brasileiros”; 2) analisar tais materiais pela perspectiva educacional; e 3) integrar a análise pedagógica com questões sociais que podem afetar e ser afetadas pela esfera musical. Apesar da orientação municipal, espera-se que a promoção de uma compreensão profunda a respeito de um fenômeno local possa influenciar setores educacionais mais amplos.

Due to the growing expansion of computers' storage and processing capacities, it has also been possible to increase the quality and specificity of sample libraries. In this context, the following work reflects on possible educational impacts of the research which investigate different audiences' perceptions regarding audios recorded by drummers' performances and by MIDI tools. Supported by the respondents' perceptions, the general aim of this paper is to reflect on the challenges for the application of MIDI-oriented approaches in formal teaching and learning music processes. Excerpted from this, four specific aims can be drawn: 1) to present the basic elements of sampling and MIDI protocol; 2) to systematically and pedagogically describe the procedures employed in the process of sequencing the selected drummers' performances; 3) to apply quality-assessment questionnaires for the sequencing-generated audios; 4) to reflect on the connections between the questionnaires' results and the use of MIDI in formal music education contexts. Pursuing these aims, the current investigation employs qualitative and quantitative methods to gather the data, to analyze the materials and to develop the knowledge that will guide the proposed discussions. It is defended that the employment of MIDI resources in music education can be beneficial not only for the development of knowledge connected with digital and modern technologies but also for the improvement of traditionally pursued music competences.

Due to the growing expansion of computers' storage and processing capacities, it has also been possible to increase the quality and specificity of sample libraries. In such a scenario, this mixed-methods research has as its main aim is to investigate drummers' performances focusing on developing pathways to incorporate their features into MIDI sequencing. Derived from it, four specific aims were established: 1) to present the basic elements of sampling and MIDI protocol; 2) To sequence the drummers' performances; 3) to apply quality-assessment questionnaires for the sequencing-generated audios; 4) to present the results' analysis. The inquiry's outcomes demonstrate that characteristics like timbre and dynamics' variation are determinants for the sequencing's acceptance by the audience.
