Music education can contribute to the
rehabilitation of offenders in a number of
ways, from the obvious gateway it provides
to other educational courses to skills that
can be transferred to other aspects of
successful living.
In this talk some of those transferrable skills
are identified and how they contribute to
addressing the causes of reoffending are
explained. I am an teacher employed by the Prison
Service and working in one of their
establishments in Wales. I have been
delivering a course I wrote covering music
production and instrumental skills for a few
years.
I completed my Cert Ed qualification
through USW. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
