Emma & Tom's Pgce Podcast

We welcome back a newly-doctorised (?) Elizabeth MacGregor to the podcast this week. Last time we spoke to Elizabeth we were all in the depths of Covid lockdown and she was embarking on her PhD. Now the results of that research are starting to appear in the form of articles, and Elizabeth is going from strength to strength as an academic having signed a book deal and started editing a journal!Elizabeth joins us down the line today from Cambridge to discuss her findings on musical vulnerability: the idea that music is uniquely-placed to affect people both semantically and somatically, and the implications of that for the classroom. Elizabeth tells us what she found out, what it means for us, and gives some golden tips for the next cohort of student teachers, whatever their subject specialism. Stick around for Elizabeth's book and podcast recommendations, too!You can read Dr Elizabeth's latest article (open-access) here.-----------------------------------------------------Recorded in studio B2.16 at Cardiff Met
