The Music Education SIG is a Special Interest Group of the American Educational Research Association. The SIG’s purpose is to provide a professional forum for the dissemination of current research related to music teaching and learning.

Welcome to the Music Education Special Interest Group! Our SIG is one of four related to the arts, and the only one devoted exclusively to music teaching and learning. If you are not a member, please check us out at an annual meeting or join our Facebook page. We are a strong, welcoming scholarly community (which should not be surprising given our shared backgrounds as music teachers). We are seeking members who represent the diverse backgrounds of music education scholars and practitioners. We invite a wide variety scholarship that addresses any questions related to music education regardless of methodological approach or theoretical stance. Our SIG also provides numerous opportunities for its members to serve the profession. I hope you will join us today!
