Abstract

The change in society as a whole after COVID-19 has led to the creation of a new word, new normal. It also influenced school education, and the need to reflect the changes of the new era emerged in education. School music education has also changed a lot compared to the past, but music textbooks have not reflected various changes. The purpose of this study is to explore the direction of the development of music textbooks according to the 2022 revised music curriculum in the new normal era. To this end, first, the meaning of the new normal was grasped and implications for music education were derived. Second, the characteristics of the new normal era reflected in the 2022 revised curriculum were analyzed. Third, the direction of music textbook development was explored for music education in the new normal era. As a result of the study, the implications of the new normal for music education were as follows: strengthening teacher competency, support for students, teaching and learning methods using digital technology, and the necessity of discussion to harmonize with the nature of music subjects. In addition, the characteristics of the new normal era were generally reflected in the curriculum amid the changed social background and needs. Music textbooks in the new normal era should be developed as textbooks for customized learning for learners, textbooks that embrace various aspects of music in the present and future, textbooks that seek to cultivate digital basic knowledge, and textbooks that encompass collaborative music activities.
