Abstract

Covid-19 impacted all aspects of life and education across the globe. This case study forms part of an ongoing project. The authors are academics working in music education across two universities in Melbourne, Australia. Using blended synchronous learning environments (BSLE) and the universal design for learning framework, this chapter examines ways that teachers used representation, action and expression, and engagement while teaching online. Survey data collected across phase one (March-April 2021, N=105) and phase two (December 2022-February 2023, N=104), were thematically analysed. Two emerging themes (modifying learning environments and developing innovative assessments) are discussed. As recommendations are made, longitudinal research is imperative to further understand how teachers and students continue to interact with learning environments. Continued understanding of the pandemic and the use of technology in teaching and assessment is essential to ensure we best prepare teachers and students as the educational landscape remains uncertain.
