Abstract

This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book aims to increase awareness of the manifold aspects and dimensions of composing in educational contexts by taking a series of international perspectives. It considers implications as to what pedagogies of composing entail, and how these are implemented in schools and colleges throughout the world. The book encourages readers to challenge their own perspectives on the teaching and learning of composing in schools, colleges, and elsewhere. It provides learning and reading more about how composing is being embedded into educational systems globally, and that our children and young people can look forward to a bright future of composing music, in whatever style, type, or genre that they choose. The book aims to encourage dialogue between the difference perspectives in order to learn from each other and strengthen the relevance of composing in educational settings.
