A DISCIPLINA DE MUSICALIZAÇÃO NA FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES: uma revisão das abordagens nas licenciaturas em música da cidade de São Luis - MA

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the approaches to the discipline of musical education in undergraduate music courses offered by higher education institutions in the city of São Luís – MA. The research, of a qualitative and exploratory nature, used document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and questionnaires to investigate how musical education is conceived, structured, and applied in teacher training. The results point to a methodological diversity among the institutions, revealing everything from more technical and theoretical proposals to integrated approaches that value pedagogical practice and playfulness. However, it was found that in a large part of the courses there is curricular fragmentation, an absence of practical experiences in school contexts, and a limited appreciation of local cultural manifestations, which weakens the preparation of future teachers. The research concludes that there is a need for reforms in undergraduate curricula, expanding the integration between theory and practice, encouraging participatory methodologies, and ensuring the training of teachers capable of promoting a critical, sensitive, and contextualized music education
