Abstract

This review article draws on published reports of teachers’ practitioner research in the field of music education, in order to posit a typology. Teachers’ practitioner research is categorized as either experimental, interpretative, action research, self-study or philosophical writing, with many studies containing elements of two or more types. Each type is illustrated with examples from the literature and the value of teachers’ practitioner research is inferred from these examples.
