Restorative Justice and Classroom Management in Elementary General Music Classrooms
Update: Applications of Research in Music Education, v42 n2 p31-41 2024
The purpose of this pilot study was to examine elementary general music teachers' familiarity with, agreement with, and perceptions of restorative justice practices. Participants (N = 49) included practicing elementary general music teachers who were members of the "California Music Educators Association," the "Florida Music Educators Association," the "Missouri Music Educators Association," the "New England Orff" chapter, and an "Orff" chapter in Southern California. Findings indicated that participants were moderately familiar with their perceived ideas of restorative justice. They reported moderately high levels of agreement with a restorative justice ideology but held largely negative perceptions regarding the approach and its implementation in elementary music classrooms. Results suggest that although many elementary music teachers generally agree with a restorative justice ideology, they face challenges in implementing restorative justice-based approaches in their classrooms. Administrative support, professional development opportunities, and future research on the topic are needed.
