CULTURE OF A PRESCHOOL EDUCATION INSTITUTION IN VIEW OF TEACHERS\u27 MUSIC TEACHING COMPETENCES

Dijete, roditelji i odgojitelji u predškolskim ustanovama dio su društva i kulture u okviru koje međusobno djeluju jedna na drugu te na taj način stvaraju kulturu odgojne ustanove. Glazba obogaćuje i oplemenjuje život u predškolskoj ustanovi što predstavlja dio njezina kulturna identiteta. Glazbenim aktivnostima postiže se neprocjenjivo ozračje u dječjem vrtiću a ujedno se pozitivno utječe na cjelovit razvoj svakoga djeteta. Rad donosi primjer iz prakse gdje smo izdvojili područje glazbenog odgoja koji nam govori o glazbenim kompetencijama odgojitelja te na koji način odgojitelji shvaćaju glazbeni odgoj radi postizanja kulture dječjeg vrtića u kojem rade. Iz pedagoških dnevnika odgojitelja, na temelju analize dokumentacije, uvidjeli smo nedostatak osnovnih odrednica kurikula za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje. Iz toga proizlazi problem u razumijevanju i interpretaciji općih ciljeva i načela umjetničkog područja u odgoju i obrazovanju kao što je glazbeni odgoj. Navedenim nedostatcima odgojitelji bi poboljšali svoju stručnost i kompetentnost za izvođenje glazbene aktivnosti odnosno osvijestili bi važnost glazbenog odgoja za cjeloviti razvoj djeteta čime bi pridonijeli kvaliteti kulturnog identiteta predškolske ustanove.In preschool education institutions, child, parents and teachers are a part of the society and culture, and have mutual influence on one another thus creating the culture of the educational institution. Music enriches and refines life in a preschool education institution, which is a part of its cultural identity. Music activities contribute to creating an invaluable environment in a kindergarten, and have positive influence on the development of a child. This paper provides evidence from practice, and it is focused on the segment of music education related to teachers\u27 music teaching competences and to the way in which the teachers realize music education in order to raise the level of culture in the kindergarten. Analysis of teaching journals showed a lack of basic determinants in the curriculum for early childhood and preschool education. Accordingly, there is an important problem in understanding and interpreting the general goals and principles of artistic expression in education (including music education). By eliminating the shortcomings the teachers could improve their professional skills and competences for music teaching, raise the importance of music education for a comprehensive development of children, and ultimately contribute to better quality of the cultural identity of a preschool education institution.

Rad donosi pregled glazbenog obrazovanja predškolskog studija na Sveučilištu u Zadru. Izdvojeni su glazbeni kolegiji nakon niza promjena koje je predškolski studij doživio. Posebno je ta promjena vidljiva uvođenjem bolonjskog procesa (2005 godine) koji je zahvatio cjelokupno visokoškolsko obrazovanje u Hrvatskoj,a to se odrazilo i na glazbeno obrazovanje na predškolskim studijima. Rad osvjetljuje glazbene kompetencije prema europskim standardima svrstane u široke kategorije: područno-specifične (akademske) i generičke (opće) koje se temelje na Tuning projekt kompetenciji. Cilj rada je ukazati na potrebu kompetentnog odgojitelja, sposobnog za reprodukciju glazbe. Takav odgojitelj će pružiti djeci kvalitetan doživljaj glazbe čimeThe paper provides an overview of music education in the framework of the pre-school studies at the University of Zadar. Featured are music courses after a series of changes that the pre-school studies experienced. In particular, the change is visible to by introducing of the Bologna process (2005) which has engulfed the entire higher education in Croatia, and was also reflected in the musical education at pre-school studies. The work illuminates the musical competencies by European standards grouped into broad categories: domain-specific (academic) and generic (general) based on Tuning competences project. The aim of this paper is to highlight the need for competent educators, capable of playing music. Such trainer will give children a quality music experience which achieves the goal of music education, and encourage the children to develop a love of music
