Human, R. (2019). Cross-Cultural and Standards-Based Assessment of the African Musical Arts. In Brophy Timothy S. (Ed.), The Oxford Handbook of Assessment Policy and Practice in Music Education, Vol 1. 671-694.
This chapter focuses on assessment in cross-cultural music education, based on cross-cultural understanding and dialogue, and aims to accommodate diverse forms of thinking. It introduces the measurability of African musical arts and develops a generic evaluation system based on recontextualized authenticity, implementable outside its culture of origin.
