Book excerpt: Student access to arts education and the quality of such instruction in the nation's public schools continue to be of concern to policymakers, educators, and families. Specifically, research has focused on questions such as: To what extent do students receive instruction in the arts? Under what conditions is this instruction provided? What is the profile of arts education instructors? (Ruppert and Nelson 2006). This study is the third of its kind to be conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (nces) in the Institute of Education Sciences (ies), U.S. Department of Education, to provide national data that inform these issues. The first study was conducted in the 1994-95 school year to provide baseline data on public schools' approaches to arts education. The second study was conducted during the 1999-2000 school year to provide broader coverage of arts education issues by collecting the first national data on educational backgrounds, professional development activities, teaching loads, and instructional practices of elementary school teachers--self-contained classroom teachers, music specialists, and visual arts specialists. To update the information from a decade ago, Congress requested that the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Innovation and Improvement (oii) and nces conduct a new study that would borrow from and build on the previous studies. This study examines many of the issues from the previous studies, including the extent to which students received instruction in the arts; the facilities and resources available for arts education instruction; and the preparation, work environments, and instructional practices of music and visual arts specialists and non-arts classroom teachers. This study also addresses emerging issues such as the availability of curriculum-based arts education activities outside of regular school hours and the presence of school-community partnerships in the arts. In addition, the current study provides broader coverage of arts education instructors by including two new surveys for secondary music and visual arts specialists. Selected indicators on arts education in public elementary and secondary schools are organized into four sections, one for each arts education subject area--music, visual arts, dance, and drama/theatre. Using its Fast Response Survey System (frss), nces conducted the surveys during the 2009-10 school year, with the two school surveys and the collection of sampling lists for the teacher surveys starting in fall 2009. frss is a survey system designed to collect small amounts of issue-oriented data from a nationally representative sample of districts, schools, or teachers with minimal burden on respondents and within a relatively short period of time. The findings in this report have been chosen to demonstrate the range of information available from the frss study rather than to discuss all of the observed differences; they are not meant to emphasize any particular issue. The findings are based on self-reported data from public school principals and teachers. Where relevant, national findings are broken out by the poverty concentration at the school, measured as the percent of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Appended are: (1) Technical Notes; and (2) Standard Errors for Text Tables and Figures. (Contains 63 tables, 27 figures and 16 footnotes.) [For "Supplemental Tables to the nces Report.

This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a national profile of the status of arts education in the nation's public schools during the 1999-2000 school year. The National Endowment for the Arts, the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI), and the Office of Reform Assistance and Dissemination (ORAD) of OERI requested that the surveys reported in this document be conducted under the Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) of the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). The report presents information on the characteristics of public elementary and secondary school arts education programs, including data on the availability of instruction in the arts, staffing, funding, supplemental programs and activities, and administrative support of arts education. It is based on data collected from elementary principals (n=640) and secondary principals (n=686) and from elementary arts specialists (music specialists (n=453) and visual arts specialists (n=331)) and classroom teachers (n=497). The report states that in the 1999-2000 academic year, music instruction and visual arts instruction were available in most of the nation's public elementary schools (94% and 87% respectively); dance and drama/theater were available in less than one-third of elementary schools (20% and 19% respectively). It also finds that overall, 72% of elementary schools offering music and 55% of elementary schools offering visual arts employed full-time specialists to teach these subjects, while full-time specialists in dance were employed by 24% of elementary schools offering it and full-time drama/theater specialists were employed by 16% of elementary schools offering it. The report states that the percentage of elementary schools with dedicated rooms for the arts varied greatly. It finds that music and visual arts instruction were offered in most of the nation's public secondary schools (90% and 93% respectively), while dance and drama/theater were offered less frequently (14% and 48% respectively).

This study is the third of its kind to be conducted by NCES to provide national data on arts education. Selected findings on elementary schools and teachers include: (1) In 2009-10, most of the nation's public elementary schools offered instruction that was designated specifically for music and visual arts (94 and 83 percent, respectively) (table 1). In comparison, 3 percent of elementary schools offered instruction that was designated specifically for dance, and 4 percent offered instruction that was designated specifically for drama/theatre; (2) Of the elementary schools that offered music, 93 percent offered instruction in that subject at least once a week, and 91 percent employed arts specialists to teach the subject in 2009-10 (table 1). Of the elementary schools that offered visual arts, 85 percent offered instruction in that subject at least once a week, and 84 percent had arts specialists teaching the subject. In elementary schools that offered dance, 53 percent offered instruction in that subject at least once a week, and 57 percent employed arts specialists to teach the subject. In elementary schools that offered drama/theatre, 58 percent offered instruction in that subject at least once a week, and 42 percent had arts specialists teaching the subject; (3) Music specialists and visual arts specialists in elementary schools reported their teaching load for all schools at which they taught during the most recent full week of teaching in the 2009-10 school year (table 2). On average, full-time music specialists spent 22 hours per week teaching 25 different music classes (i.e., different groups of students), with a class size of 19 students. On average, full-time visual arts specialists spent 22 hours per week teaching 24 different visual arts classes, with a class size of 22 students; and (4) Eighty-eight percent of classroom teachers (i.e., teachers of self-contained classrooms) in elementary schools indicated that they included arts instruction in some aspect of their classroom instructional programs in 2009-10 (table 3). Of these teachers, 6 percent taught music as a separate subject, 14 percent taught visual arts as a separate subject, 3 percent taught dance as a separate subject, and 8 percent taught drama/theatre as a separate subject. In addition, among the 88 percent of classroom teachers who included arts instruction in their classroom instructional programs, 92 percent incorporated music instruction in other subject areas, 97 percent incorporated visual arts instruction in other subject areas, 87 percent incorporated dance instruction in other subject areas, and 53 percent incorporated drama/theatre instruction in other subject areas. Selected findings on secondary schools and teachers include: (1) Ninety-one percent of public secondary schools reported that they offered music in the 2008-09 school year, 89 percent offered visual arts, 12 percent offered dance, and 45 percent offered drama/theatre (table 4); (2) Public secondary schools reported that arts specialists accounted for 97 percent of the teachers who taught music in the 2008-09 school year (table 4). In addition, arts specialists were reported to account for 94 percent of the teachers who taught visual arts, 69 percent of the teachers who taught dance, and 73 percent of the teachers who taught drama/theatre in 2008-09; and (3) Music specialists and visual arts specialists in secondary schools reported their teaching load for all schools at which they taught during the most recent full week of teaching in the 2009-10 school year (table 5). On average, full-time music specialists spent 22 hours per week teaching 8 different music classes (i.e., different groups of students), with a class size of 24 students. On average, full-time visual arts specialists spent 23 hours per week teaching 7 different visual arts classes, with a class size of 22 students.
