Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to explore reasons why participants chose to enroll in, drop out of, or never enroll in high school music. A secondary purpose of this study was to identify what types of non-traditional music offerings participants would have been interested in as high school students. A researcher-designed survey was administered to 416 participants at six participating universities, each representing one of MENC's geographic regions. Participants responded to survey questions examining external and internal factors that may have affected their decision to enroll in high school music, which included: scheduling, socioeconomic status, teachers, parents, peers, social identity, intrinsic motivation, attitude, attributions, and self-concept. Participants also responded to questions pertaining to types of courses offered at their high school and their level of interest in non-traditional high school music offerings. One-way ANOVAs revealed significant differences among the groups on most of the survey factors. Overall, those participants who were never enrolled in high school may have had difficulty fitting school music into their schedule, less parental encouragement, lower musical self-concept, and lower opinions of music teachers than those who were enrolled in high school music all four years or those who dropped out. In general, the participants who were never enrolled in high school music may not have listened to classical music, identified with a peer group within school music ensembles, enjoyed traditional repertoire, or had many friends who were in school music compared to those who were enrolled in high school music all four years or those who dropped out. The results also suggested that those who had enrolled in high school music all four years were significantly more interested in non-traditional music offerings than those who never enrolled. However, the participants who never enrolled in or dropped out of high school music indicated that they were somewhat interested in non-traditional courses, such as: learning how to play popular music, learning how to play rhythm section instruments, learning how to play piano, and learning about music technology.

Download or read book Beyond Free College written by Eileen L. Strempel and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Free College outlines an audacious national agenda—consistent with, but far more comprehensive than, the current “free college” movement—that builds on the best of US higher education’s populist history such as the G.I. Bill and the community college transfer function. The authors align a wide constellation of higher education trends—online learning, prior learning assessment, competency-based learning, high school college-credit— with a rapidly shifting student transfer environment that privileges college credit as the pivotal educational catalyst to boost access and completion. The book’s agenda seeks greater productive investment in postsecondary education by privileging a single metric—lower-cost-per-degree-granted—as the animating driver of a transfer pathway that will fulfill the potential of its historical, progressive innovators. Beyond Free College’s goal is as simple as it is urgent: To galvanize higher education advocates in an effort to reorganize, reorient, and reignite the transfer function to serve the needs of a neotraditional student population that now constitutes the majority of college-goers in America; and in ways that advance completion, not just access to higher education.
