The dissertation Pathways of Musical Creativity shows that students’ musical creativity can develop in an intervention with Video Feedback Coaching for teachers, mediated by their support of students’ creative autonomy during classroom interactions in music lessons. Autonomy support entails fostering students' self-determined learning by providing space for their own choices and interests. The intervention introduced teachers to music-pedagogical strategies for enhancing classroom interaction in order to transition from a teacher- and method-centered style to a student-centered and autonomy-supportive interaction approach. This PhD research also took the nonverbal components of teachers' autonomy support into account because classroom interaction in music lessons is also nonverbal and musical in nature.Teachers changed their interaction style during the intervention to one that supported more autonomy, and they were less likely to return to mainly instruction and modelling. Although for verbal autonomy support a beneficial effect was observed, teachers found it more difficult to provide higher levels of non-verbal autonomy support in music teaching. In turn, students showed more originality and variation in their creative thinking and acting in music. Although over half of the classes engaged in playing more complex rhythmical patterns over the course of the intervention, at group-level no effect for this aspect was found in comparison to a control group. These findings suggest that in both primary education and teacher education, more focus should be placed on enhancing classroom interaction and supporting students’ creative autonomy support in music lessons.
Volgens het opleidingsdocument in het hoger onderwijs is het sociaal werk een 'talig' beroep. Maar dat is eenzijdig en onhoudbaar. Kunst en creativiteit kunnen professionals 'meertalig' maken, betogen drie lectoren van verschillendehogescholen. En dat is hard nodig.

The work book 'Curious Minds Muziekeducatie' is aimed at Dutch primary school teachers. The book is used by teachers who participate in a coaching trajectory based on Video Interaction Coaching. The trajectory is part of PhD research into the effects of coaching teachers in music lessons aimed at creativity development in primary school students. Children love to explore in music settings and by nature have curious minds. Via video coaching, school teachers can further develop their pedagogical and didactical skills to enhance the creative music talent of their students. They can learn to observe and recognise the talented behaviour their students show in music lessons and learn to respond to it appropriately. Furthermore they can learn to elicit these special and teacheable moments. These moments can be described as moments in which the interaction between the teacher and the students is on an optimal level and students are involved in the situated construction of musical knowledge and insight.The coaching is part of PhD research within the department of Developmental Psychology of University of Groningen, and of the research programme of the research group Art Education of Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen. The research is also linked to the Curious Minds research programme of the School of Education of Hanze University of Applied Sciences.
Creativiteit ontstaat in interactie tussen leerling, leraar en taak. In hun bijdrage zoomen Elisa Kupers en Ineke Haakma in op de rol van taak en materiaal. Ze introduceren een raamwerk met vier factoren die bepalen of een taak of materiaal creativiteit prikkelt of juist remt.
