Download or read book Why Music written by Scott A. Drechsel and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between instrumental music and student achievement has been debated for decades. Many studies (mostly correlational research) suggest that music performance can impact student achievement and social environment. Much of the research has evaluated instrumental music performance and student achievement from a quantitative/statistical standpoint using student test scores and college admission records. This study investigated the underrepresented perspective of students in regards to the impact of instrumental performance on student achievement and social environment. The aim was to find out why students continue to enroll in instrumental performance classes. A survey was conducted with participants from four high school advanced music classes (156 students). From two of the surveyed classes, two small student groups were selected for interviews. The small groups were randomly selected from a group of students who had a minimum of five years of instrumental performance experience. The initial findings of the survey and interviews revealed that instrumental music performance is positively correlated with student achievement and social environment. More research is needed to explore student perspectives to account for student instrumental experience and/or gender. Public and private schools are recommended to invest heavily in their music programs, as music performance is a conduit for student achievement. Moreover, with the advances in technology and recent findings from studies in neuroscience, instrumental performance has been shown to have beneficial effects on the brain and neuro-functioning.

Book The Child as Musician

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gary E. McPherson
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2015-09-24
  • ISBN : 0191061883
  • Pages : 697 pages

Download or read book The Child as Musician written by Gary E. McPherson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-24 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new edition of The Child as Musician: A Handbook of Musical Development celebrates the richness and diversity of the many different ways in which children can engage in and interact with music. It presents theory - both cutting edge and classic - in an accessible way for readers by surveying research concerned with the development and acquisition of musical skills. The focus is on musical development from conception to late adolescences, although the bulk of the coverage concentrates on the period when children are able to begin formal music instruction (from around age 3) until the final year of formal schooling (around age 18). There are many conceptions of how musical development might take place, just as there are for other disciplines and areas of human potential. Consequently, the publication highlights the diversity in current literature dealing with how we think about and conceptualise children's musical development. Each of the authors has searched for a better and more effective way to explain in their own words and according to their own perspective, the remarkable ways in which children engage with music. In the field of educational psychology there are a number of publications that survey the issues surrounding child and adolescent development. Some of the more innovative present research and theories, and their educational implications, in a style that stresses the fundamental interplay among the biological, environmental, social and cultural influences at each stage of a child's development. Until now, no similar overview has existed for child and adolescent development in the field of music. The Child as Musician addresses this imbalance, and is essential for those in the fields of child development, music education, and music cognition.

Book The New Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning

Download or read book The New Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning written by Music Educators National Conference (U.S.) and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-04-18 with total page 1249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring chapters by the world's foremost scholars in music education and cognition, this handbook is a convenient collection of current research on music teaching and learning. This comprehensive work includes sections on arts advocacy, music and medicine, teacher education, and studio instruction, among other subjects, making it an essential reference for music education programs. The original Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning, published in 1992 with the sponsorship of the Music Educators National Conference (MENC), was hailed as "a welcome addition to the literature on music education because it serves to provide definition and unity to a broad and complex field" (Choice). This new companion volume, again with the sponsorship of MENC, explores the significant changes in music and arts education that have taken place in the last decade. Notably, several chapters now incorporate insights from other fields to shed light on multi-cultural music education, gender issues in music education, and non-musical outcomes of music education. Other chapters offer practical information on maintaining musicians' health, training music teachers, and evaluating music education programs. Philosophical issues, such as musical cognition, the philosophy of research theory, curriculum, and educating musically, are also explored in relationship to policy issues. In addition to surveying the literature, each chapter considers the significance of the research and provides suggestions for future study.Covering a broad range of topics and addressing the issues of music education at all age levels, from early childhood to motivation and self-regulation, this handbook is an invaluable resource for music teachers, researchers, and scholars.

Book Teaching and Evaluating Music Performance at University

Download or read book Teaching and Evaluating Music Performance at University written by John Encarnacao and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fresh perspectives on teaching and evaluating music performance in higher education are offered in this book. One-to-one pedagogy and Western art music, once default positions of instrumental teaching, are giving way to a range of approaches that seek to engage with the challenges of the music industry and higher education sector funding models of the twenty-first century. Many of these approaches – formal, informal, semi-autonomous, notated, using improvisation or aleatory principles, incorporating new technology – are discussed here. Chapters also consider the evolution of the student, play as a medium for learning, reflective essay writing, multimodal performance, interactivity and assessment criteria. The contributors to this edited volume are lecturer-practitioners – choristers, instrumentalists, producers and technologists who ground their research in real-life situations. The perspectives extend to the challenges of professional development programs and in several chapters incorporate the experiences of students. Grounded in the latest music education research, the book surveys a contemporary landscape where all types of musical expression are valued; not just those of the conservatory model of decades past. This volume will provide ideas and spark debate for anyone teaching and evaluating music performance in higher education.
