Original language description

This empirical study focuses on the instrumental competencies of primary teachereducation students and their self-assessment in the context of teacher preparation at theFaculty of Education, Charles University in Prague. The research was conducted in April2024 on a sample of 196 students and forms part of a broader survey examining theprofessional competencies of future teachers. The analysis showed that studentsperceive musical expression and the importance of instrumental skills for schoolpractice predominantly positively, even though most of them enter their studies withoutextensive prior musical training and do not plan to teach music education in the future.No significant differences were confirmed between lower- and upper-year students, norbetween students specializing in music education and the cohort as a whole. In contrast,a difference was found between modes of study: full-time students rated the importanceof instrumental skills for professional preparation significantly more positively than parttimestudents.The results indicate that support for the development of instrumental skills should be anintegral part of the systematic preparation of future teachers. Particularly beneficialappears to be the strengthening of basic chordal accompaniment skills, increasedmotivation for self-study, and the consideration of curricular anchoring of suchinstruction in the form of a standalone course. The study offers concreterecommendations for improving undergraduate preparation in this area and for fosteringstudents&apos; relationship to music education as a significant component of school practice.
