This book examines the inner transformation of the teacher throughout a sixteen-week composition project using computer technology with fourth and fifth-grade music students. Approached from a phenomenological perspective, this research engages constructivist philosophy through an action research method aimed at examining the critically reflective music educator. The main open questions this research addresses surround how the integration of music education computer software applications like Morton Subotnick’s Making Music, Creating Music, Music Ace I and Music Ace II can be used in the creation of teaching environments designed to develop critically reflective music makers who engage synthesis, evaluation and critical reflection in their cognitive processes. This research explores how the implementation of such representative computer applications can assist in the development of teaching strategies designed to lead students to compose a text- based choral composition, an essential element of a general/choral curriculum.
