We investigate students' perceptions of learning a piece/song and what does learning involve?
26 first year students from School of Music participated in the study on information literacy. In higher education learning, information literacy is not taught or part of the curriculum, but facilitated through library workshops for students. However, conducting such workshop can be challenging.
This study examines students' current practices to address challenges on teaching information literacy. We investigate students' perceptions of learning a piece/song and what does learning involve? What are the various learning resources music major students use and how we can use this knowledge to improve their learning. Lastly, we study how practice-led learning such as workshops and lecture-recitals can better engage musicians.
