Abstract: | |||||
This research presents a model of Evaluation Processes in Community Music from
the perspective of a practising Community Musician. Using a frame of Action
Research five case studies are set up and other data collected. These are analysed
and a model is constructed which formulates the current practice of evaluation of the
Action Researcher. Suggestions are made about how this model can be used to aid
future evaluation in Community Music contexts.
The introduction outlines the background and themes of this research. Chapter One
explores the nature of the term 'community' and presents a working model of the
processes of community creation. The parameters of the term 'Community Music'
are discussed through a literature review and the researcher's knowledge of the field.
Chapter Two discusses why an Action Research approach was chosen, and how
certain strategies within this were used. Chapter Three introduces the five case
studies and interrogates them in the light of the themes identified in Chapter One.
Chapter Four gives two examples of how interview and discussion data have been
analysed and again interrogates the data. In Chapter Five, the model is presented and
the case studies are used to explore it. Research conclusions are also presented
which bring together the model and the themes of the research. Chapter Six explores
the implications of the model and suggests areas of further research.
