ABSTRACT
In Taiwan, the importance of musical creativity has been stated in several government policy documents, including the White Paper on Creative Education (MOE 2002), National Curriculum Grade 1–9 Guidelines (MOE 2003; 2008), and The Creative Taiwan–Action Plans for the Development of Creative and Cultural Industries (Executive Yuan 2009). But how has this target of developing students’ musical creativity been implemented in higher education, especially for students who are not specializing in music and the arts in Taiwan? There is still a lack of published research addressing the question, and that gives this study its significance and appropriateness.
