| Summary: | In 2011, when the new curriculum was presented, digital tools were included as a centralcontent and mainly in terms of music creation (Skolverket, 2011). The purpose of this study isto find out how music teachers use digital learning tools and how the digital learning toolsaffect them in their teaching.I have done a qualitative survey and the informants were all members of the Facebook group"Musiklärarna". There were 60 music teachers in the F-9 and upper secondary school from allover Sweden who participated in the study.The result shows that many of the respondents use digital technology. However, not all themusic teachers follows the syllabus for music (Lgr11) where it appears that the students willdevelop their ability to use digital tools for sound and music creation (grade 4-6) and digitaltools for music creation, recording and processing (grade 7-9) ( Skolverket, 2011).My conclusion is that more education is needed in digital technology for music teachers,mainly in music creation with digital tools. As a continuation of this study, it is interestingand relevant to do a research how music teachers around the country work with musiccreation.
