Synopsis
Over the course of four years I have been able to promote an effective classroom musical culture using peer and self-assessment as students take control of their learning. We developed a set of checklists, rubrics and protocols for students singing and playing in the classroom together. Students have become more critical and active listeners as they assess performances and writing.
