Week 8- learning centres in music and visual arts. Notes from learning centres in music and visual arts education lecture. --learning centres are discreet physical spaces in the classroom set up to enable students to work independently of the teacher in the completion of self-paced tasks. Learning centre tasks in music education may include: composing or creating activities, performing activities or listening activities*. --learning centres consist of designated areas in the classroom where children explore a range of ideas and materials in arriving independently at a solution to a problem. Through such challenges children are able to exercise choice, take responsibility for their decision-making and work at their own pace learning centres are effective in promoting a child-centred rather than a teacher-centred learning environment . *in visual arts learning centre experiences may include: designing ideas, and experimenting with and using different materials.
