Formerly to be two separate papers:-
The Composing Labyrinth,
Knowing In Music: A Critical Appraisal
Author: Compiled by Martin Fautley and Steven Hutchinson:

These two papers examine composing in secondary schools. Martin Fautley looks at group composing and identifies four recurring models to which most school composing conforms.

Steven Hutchinson looks at 14 year olds and with video recorded evidence analyses group discussion and rehearsal as the ways in which the finished product emerges.

Both papers examine not only the musical outcomes but also the crucial personal consequences of group composing.
