KS3/4 Music - Teaching Copyright

February 3, 2014 by Administrator

A demonstration of how two schools have introduced the subject of artistic and intellectual property rights into the KS3 music curriculum.

At Monk's Walk School, Hertfordshire, head of music Anna Gower invites in songwriters and musicians to discuss the impact of illegal downloading with pupils.

The musicians work with the pupils as they write their own songs, and highlight the importance of copyright in the creative process.

At Harrogate Grammar School, a personal approach is pivotal to engaging the pupils with the issue.

In Year 9 pupils define the different roles within the music industry, and take part in a discussion about the effects of illegal downloading on songwriters.

And music teacher Andy Goldsmith asks his Year 8 pupils to imagine they are in a band, to help them learn how to protect their own work through copyright.
