Grants & Scholarships >> Research Partnership

The purpose of the AOSA Research Partnership Grant is to encourage joint research by music teachers (serving as primary investigator and team leader) and experienced researchers. A maximum of three proposals will be awarded up to $800 each, per year, to cover expenses related to the research project.

· The grant is open to any research team that includes at least one practicing music teacher of Grades P-12 in a school setting and one faculty member with substantial research experience at a college or university.

· Team members are expected to collaborate closely in designing and implementing a research project.

· The practicing music teacher must be a member of the American Orff-Schulwerk Association and serve as primary researcher in this project; the college faculty member will serve in an advisory role.

The American Orff-Schulwerk Association is a professional organization dedicated to the creative teaching approach developed by Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman. We are united by our belief that music and movement – to speak, sing and play; to listen and understand; to move and create – should be an active and joyful experience.
