How I Think
Chapter 3 examines adolescent brain growth, musical thinking, and motivation. Adolescents on music share how they think about music, how they view themselves, and what challenges they have faced in their musical development. Included in chapter 3 is an exploration of Ryan and Deci’s metatheory of motivation, titled self-determination, and Dweck and Molden’s self-theories or mindset. In the middle of the chapter, a brief discussion ensues of adolescents’ experiences as creative thinkers. At the end of the chapter, recommendations are proposed as to how educators’ regular and consistent communication and positive modeling represent critical supports to adolescent musical development.
