Descriptions

Objectives
The goal of the Degree Program is to train, develop, and graduate students specializing in popular music and jazz as competent and versatile music professionals: instrumentalists, music educators, composer-arrangers, music producers and music technologists, who are willing and able to develop their professional skills further and to use their creative knowledge to enrich both the Finnish and the international field of popular music and jazz. Students who graduate the Program will earn a Bachelor-level degree, specializing either as a Musician or a Music Educator. In both lines of study, the students deepen their basic vocational skills and knowledge right from the beginning, in addition to common subjects and cultural studies. At first, all students take common core studies, but towards the end of the studies the amount of elective studies increase, thus leaving room for specializing. All courses are one semester of length at the most. The Program also offers the students a firm theoretical background to expand one's studies into music research and, in the case of the music educators' study line, also into examining pedagogical issues within the field of pop music and jazz.

Structure of the Degree Program
The Degree Program comprises of core studies, professional studies, elective studies and practical training, as well as a final thesis or project and a thesis defense. Within these, in addition to the options and advanced study modules referred to above, further options are available in the form of modular courses which are chosen in accordance with the desired specialization objectives. Part of the practical training for music education students consists of practical teacher training, but all students also prepare for performance situations characteristic of their special field in order to gain familiarity with the multiform tasks of practical working life. With some preconditions, students may change their advanced study module before the beginning of the second year of studies.

Vocational Description
The objective of the Pop/jazz Music Educator study line is to educate versatile and stylistically diversified pedagogues specialized in teaching popular music and jazz. The student can choose between Instrument Teacher's, Vocal Teacher's and Theory Teacher's optional study modules.
The task of a Pop/jazz Music Educator is multifaceted: in addition to a command of their instrument, instrumental or vocal teachers must know how to convey the skills to their pupils, as well as be able to continuously develop themselves as a pedagogue; theory teachers also get acquainted with composing, arranging and band leading in order to act, when needed, as an encouraging expert and the leading figure of their immediate circle.
The Pop/jazz Music Educator Degree embodies Vocational Teacher Education studies (60 CP ECTS), in compliance with the act 356/2003 and decree 357/2003, concerning vocational teacher education in Finland.

Työelämän osallistuminen OPS:n kehittämiseen
Lukuvuoden 2009-2010 opetussuunnitelmiin ei ole tehty rakenteellisia muutoksia, ja sisällölliset muutokset ovat vähäisiä, lähinnä täsmennyksiä. Lukuvuoden 2008-09 opetussuunnitelmien (joihin 2009-10 OPS:t pohjautuvat) kehittämiseen on työelämä ottanut voimakkaasti osaa. Koulutusohjelma on sekä konsultoinut omaa ammatillista neuvottelukuntaansa kehitystyössä että kerännyt kyselyillä nykyhetkeä kartoittavaa ja tulevaisuuden trendejä ennakoivaa tietoa suomalaisen musiikki- ja oppilaitoskentän keskeisistä henkilöistä koostuvilta asiantuntijapaneeleilta, ja käyttänyt tätä saamaansa tietoa opetussuunnitelman rakenteen ja sisällön uudistamisessa.

Ammatillisen neuvottelukunnan käsittely
Musiikin koulutusohjelmarypään ammatillinen neuvottelukunta käsitteli opetussuunnitelmia kokouksessaan 23.2.2009.
Ammatillinen neuvottelukunta korosti laaja-alaisuuden merkitystä tämän päivän musiikkialan ammattilaisten osaamisessa, ja linjasi opetussuunnitelman kehittämisen keskeisiksi alueiksi tulevaisuudessa
- musiikin ja pop/jazzmusiikin koulutusohjelmarajan ylittävien opintopolkujen mahdollistamisen
- opintojen aikaisen työtoiminnan opinnollistamisen projektiopinnoiksi
- erikoistumisopintojen kehittämisen työelämän tarpeet paremmin huomioivaksi yli perinteisten koulutusohjelmarajojen.

Opetussuunnitelmien kehittäminen osaamisperustaisiksi
Pop/jazzmusiikin opetussuunnitelmia on v:sta 2003 alkaen kehitetty määrätietoisesti osaamisperustaisiksi. Lähes kaikkien opintojaksojen kuvaukset ovat jo osaamisperustaisia, ja loputkin saanemme kirjoitettua lukuvuoteen 2010-2011 mennessä. Kehitystyö perustuu Euroopan konservatorioliitto AEC:n julkaisemiin, Erasmus/Poliafonia-verkoston määrittelemiin kansainvälisiin osaamis- ja kompetenssikuvauksiin.

Opetussuunnitelman kehittämistyön jatkamiseksi pop/jazz-musiikin koulutusohjelmassa on olemassa määritelty ja kuvattu prosessi.
