The question is how could I be more effective as a Music Teacher for my students and how could I implement my task.

Nowadays , we must be prepared to do our best with the  students  because the society is changing and the needs of our students too. Therefore we have to attend their needs. Knowing their expectations and working through it. It becomes a necessity to enhance our communicative skills.

The best practice can only be developed through a consideration of relevant theory and research. As teachers in Higher Education we are all involved in a crosscurricular way being in touch  with other professionals .

Reflective practice is an essential component .It is a synonymous of best practice. Moreover intrinsic motivation and professional awareness. Engaging in a review of our activities and working in order to recycle, create, plan and innovate our methodology . The teaching-learning process needs to be more explicit and structured.

Research discipline helps us to implement our work as well as sharing values , intentions and knowledge. These values are transmitted and adapted through levels of political and society structures.

I would like to focus on CEFIRE ESPECÍFIC EN ENSENYAMENTS ARTÍSTICS and COORDINACIÓ DE PROGRAMES EUROPEUS as for example Erasmus+ for Teachers (promoting professional mobility, cross curricular actions , ICT projects and cooperative work among different countries through key actions (dissemination and exploitation).

Fortunately the CONSELLERIA supports all this formative courses. So, I would choose three main training courses :

1.CAP A L’ÈXIT ESCOLAR A TRAVÉS DE LA MÚSICA.PROESO.GRUP INSTRUMENTAL DE PROFESSORS DE MÚSICA DE LA COMUNITAT VALENCIANA AMB ALUMNAT. It involves teachers and students.We usually share materials , knowledge and practice.

2.COMENIUS. It is about a cultural exchange among teachers and students  from different countries. I worked in IES Juan de Garay and they applied this International Program . Moreover they gave value incorporating Music and Poetry to the activities.Sharing knowledge and experiences.

3.I would suggest the next one : ICT resources through CLIL methodology in Musical Education.

In my opinion, the best way to share good practice amongst teaching professionals  is the cooperative and collaborative work between teachers , educative authorities and personal management. In fact , all the Educative Communicative should be involved in this issue .Moreover, it becomes a great objective to become an active member of a Musical Project (PROESO  or COM SONA L'ESO )as a Group of Experts. It means creating communities of practice and working with projects.
