McCormack, Christopher Klopper, Lisbeth Kitson, Marleen Westerveld  \nGriffith University  \nAbstract  \nAustralia is a culturally and linguistically diverse country, with a large proportion of the population originating from non-English speaking countries. One of the significant challenges for non-English speakers living in Australia is the ability to verbally communicate in English. Twenty to 25% of children in Australian schools have English as an additional language or dialect (EAL/D) (Commonwealth of Australia, 2016; Hammond, 2014). These students can struggle in the classroom as they both learn the English language, whilst being taught in the English language which they may have little to no working function knowledge (Kibler, Valdés, & Walqui, 2014). Further, intelligibility of communication can be affected as a result of poor pronunciation in the target language. This research investigated the potential of an eight-week music intervention, which drew upon principles of audiation from Gordon’s Music Learning Theory, for developing pronunciation in students with EAL/D. Results indicated that five of the six student participants with EAL/D demonstrated improvements in their pronunciation when speaking in English as a result of the intervention.  \nThis research indicates positive correlations between the use of a specific music intervention drawing on principles of audiation and the development of pronunciation for students with EAL/D. Recommendations for future research in this area have been presented.  \nKey words: EAL/D; music; pronunciation; audiation.  \nBackground and significance Australian Immigration Statistics  \nAustralia is a melting pot of more than 2,000 different ethnicities (de Courcy, Dooley, Jackson, Miller, & Rushton, 2012), revealing how culturally and linguistically diverse our population has become as a result of international migration. Asthe total population continues to grow, so too does its international migrant population. The international migrant population of Australia has continued to increase since the 1960s (Migration Policy Institute [MPI], 2015). By 1990, 20% of Australia’s total population were migrants, andover 25% of the population were migrants by 2010 (Migration Policy Institute [MPI], 2015).  \nRecent data captured by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS, 2017) indicates 54% of immigrant arrivals in Australia were from a non-English  \nspeaking country. Discounting the top two countries (the United Kingdom and New Zealand) whose native language is English, the remaining number of immigrants arriving to Australia from non-English speaking countries amassed to 52.9%. In particular, a number of these immigrants arrive to Australia and are enrolled in Australian schools (The Australian Government Department of Immigration and Border Protection, 2012). As of June 2012, the top ten sending countries of school-aged students were from non-English speaking countries. Data from the Australia Government Department of Education and Training (Commonwealth of Australia, 2016) states that there was an increase of 10.5% over a 12-month period. For the month of December 2016 alone, there were 23,325 international students enrolled in Australian schools, in which the top three countries of origin were reported as China (12,086), Vietnam  \n(2,193), and South Korea (1,276) (Commonwealth of Australia, 2016). These statistics indicate that a significant number of immigrants arrive to Australia from non-English speaking countries, and are being enrolled in our Australian schools. It cannot be assumed that these immigrant students know and understand the English language, and are proficient in communicating in English.
