Download or read book Reshaping International Teaching and Learning in Higher Education written by Paul G. Nixon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-21 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a broad examination of how technology and globalisation have influenced contemporary higher education institutions and how moves towards internationalisation within and between educational providers continue to be a force for change in this context. Showcasing the varied responses to and utilisation of new technologies to support international teaching and learning endeavours at a range of higher education institutions, this book introduces content from around the world, emphasising the global importance of the internationalisation of education. Featuring contributions from some fresh young voices alongside the work of experienced and internationally renowned scholars this collection critically scrutinises the potential of information and communication technologies (ICTs) on the capacities and patterns of university education; assesses and refines the contention that ICTs are facilitating the (re-)shaping of university practices as well as challenging traditional educational models and learning strategies; provides a comprehensive portrait of the ways in which ICT use engages higher education providers, society, and individuals to facilitate potentially more democratic, globally focussed access to knowledge generation, creation, investigation, and consumption processes through internationally focussed education; and examines the differing pace and scope of change in international educational practice and context between and within countries and disciplines. With an international range of carefully chosen contributors, this book is a must-read text for practitioners, academics, researchers, administrators, policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of the university in an information age.

Download or read book Etudes for Piano Teachers written by Stewart Gordon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1995-02-23 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as musical etudes focus on the development of skills and address the technical problems encountered in keyboard literature, the "etudes" in Stewart Gordon's new book also focus on ideas which prepare piano teachers for meeting the problems encountered in piano performing and teaching. This major new collection on the piano teacher's art opens with an assessment of the role of the piano teacher, and goes on to explore various types of students and the challenge each presents: the moderately talented, but ambitious, student; the late beginner; the unusually gifted. Drawing on thirty years of teaching and performing, Gordon then bring fresh ideas to bear on the often-discussed areas of inner-hearing, pulse regulation, improvisation, sight-reading, and collaborative music making. There are sections on performance procedures, memorizing, pedalling, and historical performance practices; a carefully-balanced consideration of the role of the piano student and teacher; and realistic looks at the problems facing the profession today, the dynamics of a performing career, and the stages through which musicians' careers often pass. Designed to open up new avenues of inquiry, to provoke discussion and creative thinking, and to challenge and motivate students, these essays will be vital reading for all serious piano students and teachers.
Download or read book A Descriptive Study of Class Piano Courses in Florida s Secondary Public Schools written by Ricardo Augusto da Silva Pozenatto and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past two decades, the United States has witnessed a constant growth in academic research about group piano at the collegiate level of education. This topic has been the focus of attention in piano pedagogy journals and conferences. However, there are few studies related to piano classes in the secondary public school educational system. This trend raises questions regarding the status of these courses at this specific level of education. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the status of group piano instruction in public secondary schools in the state of Florida. To accomplish this goal, the researcher collected data from instructors across the state of Florida who taught group piano courses at public middle and high schools. The questionnaire developed by the researcher served as the survey instrument for this investigation. The researcher used the data collected to analyze the instructional settings of piano classes, investigate the resources and materials that group piano teachers used, examine teachers' preparation and training on piano and group teaching, and describe the equipment utilized by teachers. The participants' perspectives shed light on the status of class piano courses in Florida's secondary public schools. The researcher sent a total of 980 emails to music teachers of secondary public schools across the state. Although 120 music teachers responded to the questionnaire, only 87 met the criteria of teaching class piano courses in secondary public schools. Therefore, the number of participants for the present study was 87. Results from the questionnaire indicated that most of the teachers (97.7%) possessed a Florida teaching certification in music. However, only 28.7% of the teachers stated that keyboard/class piano courses were their primary teaching assignment. A minority of the teachers (36.8%) mentioned they had special training for teaching class piano, which included being a former class piano student while in college, taking private piano lessons while in college or from K-12, participating in piano workshops, and/or during the in-service experiences. Data from the questionnaire revealed that the number of middle and high school students who were enrolled in class piano varied. The enrollment of middle school students was between 10 and 160 per semester, while the enrollment of high school students was between 6 and 350. It is important to recall that these numbers may reflect the issues brought by the global pandemic teachers faced, especially during the academic year of 2020-2021. Additionally, teachers were asked about the importance of certain music skills during class piano instruction. All teachers stated that music reading was very important. Moreover, middle school teachers mentioned that memorization and ear training were important skills to be taught during class piano while high school teachers recognized chordal accompanying and ear training as important skills. Most of the teachers who participated in this study (88.5%) mentioned they used a basic method book for their class piano instruction. A variety of series was pointed, including books for children, for teenagers, and even music books for adults. Most of the books cited were designed for individual instruction; however, some teachers also expressed utilizing books that were developed purposefully for group instruction. The questionnaire also exposed diverse issues about class piano instruction that were perceived by the participating teachers. They mentioned that because of their inability to place students in different classes due to students' schedule constraints, classes ended up including students with a wide variety of playing abilities (e.g., students who have never played the piano alongside with students who took private piano instruction for years). This issue might have made teachers prioritize an individual instructional setting over a collective one, shadowing their views on the advantages of group instruction during class piano. According to the results from the research questionnaire, the researcher recommends that teachers who instruct class piano courses in the state of Florida, in addition to music students who are to fulfill these positions in the future, enhance their professional development on the subject of piano teaching. This can be achieved by attending piano pedagogy courses that universities and colleges of music offer in their curriculum. Moreover, these educators could benefit from attending music conferences and being involved in professional music organizations that focus on piano pedagogy.

Download or read book Paradigm War written by Lia Laor and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of piano pedagogy in 19th century Europe has yet to be fully told, although it is of immediate relevance for current music education. Europe at that time was the hub of unparalleled critical scholarly discourse, which deliberated on theories of piano pedagogy and the merits of pedagogical music. Impressively, this discourse was shaped by a wide diversity of contributors who included that period’s leading composers like Clementi, Czerny, Beethoven, and Schumann, as well as performers, pedagogues, and music critics, while even addressing parents and young piano students. Offering a unique glimpse into the rich primary sources of such interdisciplinary historical dialogue and musical works, Paradigm War: Lessons Learned from 19th Century Piano Pedagogy presents this story from a synoptic multidimensional viewpoint, integrating developmental-musical, as well as psychological-educational and aesthetic, perspectives. Thus, this book provides an intellectual map for critically evaluating these authentic early contributions to the field in terms of the two conflicting methodological paradigms that governed piano pedagogy of the time – mechanism and holism – which had emerged, respectively, from Enlightenment and Romantic philosophies. The paradigm war reached its climax and resolution in Robert Schumann’s works that, following Jean Paul Richter’s ideas on aesthetics and education, offered a methodological modification transcending both paradigms. Schumann’s innovative music for the young and his revolutionary pedagogical ideas—mostly ignored in the literature—are proposed here as the foundation for liberal and artistic piano pedagogy for our time, inspiring music teachers and piano pedagogues to partake in research that combines music, pedagogy, aesthetics, and education.
