Book Synopsis Advocate for Music! by : Lynn M. Brinckmeyer
Download or read book Advocate for Music! written by Lynn M. Brinckmeyer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the US, school budgets are tightening and music programs, often the first asked to compromise in the name of a balanced budget, face a seemingly grim future. Monetary restrictions combined with an increasing focus on test scores have led to heavy cuts in school music programs. In many cases, communities and teachers untrained in advocacy are helpless in the face of the school board, with no one willing and comfortable to speak up on their behalf. In Advocate for Music : A Guide to User-Friendly Strategies, Lynn M. Brinckmeyer, respected educator and past president for the National Association for Music Education, provides a manual for music teachers motivated to advocate but lacking the experience, resources, or time to acquire the skills to do so effectively. It will serve as a toolkit for advocating, and also for sharing resources, strategies and ideas useful for educating everyone - from community members to political representatives - about the immediate and long-term benefits of music education. In Advocate for Music , Brinckmeyer draws on a lifetime of arts advocacy to provide answers to the questions so many teachers have but are afraid - or simply too busy - to ask. A simple, hands-on guidebook for becoming an effective advocate for the arts, Advocate for Music is structured around six key questions: what is advocacy? Why focus on it? Who should do it? How does one do it? Where should we advocate? And when should we advocate? Readers will have access to step-by-step guidelines and strategies on how to engage others, and themselves, in a variety of levels of advocacy activities. In addition to granting access to compelling research projects, the book will provide models of letters, webinars, research findings, printed documents, websites and contact information useful for communicating with local, state and national decision makers. Working in an informal, hands-on manner, Brinckmeyer lays out advice on who to work with and what to do: providing concrete examples of advocacy tactics from ideas on how to cooperate with the gym teacher to a sample speech for the holiday concert. As she walks the reader through the a myriad of real-life examples and practical answers to her central questions, Brinckmeyer shows that every educator, parent, family member, and administrator can and should be engaged in advocating to maintain, and support, the right for today's children and adolescents to have access to high quality music education. Advocate for Music is an important book not only for all pre-service and inservice music teachers, but aso for state MEA leaders and staff, administrators, parents, community members, and all those involved with arts or education associations.

Download or read book Expectations and Experiences written by Elizabeth B. Peterson and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research was to examine the experiences and expectations of three instrumental music teachers. The participants were all first year teachers who graduated from the Ithaca College School of Music in the spring of 2003. Information about each participant’s experience was gathered throughout their first academic year of teaching via regularly scheduled personal and phone interviews, observations and journal records. In addition to these aforementioned data collection methods, school administrators, mentors, students and band parents were interviewed. The Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium core principles were used as a template by which each new teacher could measure his or her success during the initial year of teaching. While personal life issues, personalities and the different communities in which each taught affected these teacher’s experiences, it was determined that the first year instrumental music teachers in this study had difficulties working with band parents, selecting appropriate music for their ensemble and setting limits for student behavior. All three participants believed that they were well prepared to teach music but that certain aspects of teaching especially the desire to be liked by the students made the first year experience a challenge.

Book Synopsis Arts with the Brain in Mind by : Eric Jensen
Download or read book Arts with the Brain in Mind written by Eric Jensen and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2001-05-15 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do the arts stack up as a major discipline? What is their effect on the brain, learning, and human development? How might schools best implement and assess an arts program? Eric Jensen answers these questions--and more--in this book. To push for higher standards of learning, many policymakers are eliminating arts programs. To Jensen, that's a mistake. This book presents the definitive case, based on what we know about the brain and learning, for making arts a core part of the basic curriculum and thoughtfully integrating them into every subject. Separate chapters address musical, visual, and kinesthetic arts in ways that reveal their influence on learning. What are the effects of a fully implemented arts program? The evidence points to the following: * Fewer dropouts * Higher attendance * Better team players * An increased love of learning * Greater student dignity * Enhanced creativity * A more prepared citizen for the workplace of tomorrow * Greater cultural awareness as a bonus To Jensen, it's not a matter of choosing, say, the musical arts over the kinesthetic. Rather, ask what kind of art makes sense for what purposes. How much time per day? At what ages? What kind of music? What kind of movement? Should the arts be required? How do we assess arts programs? In answering these real-world questions, Jensen provides dozens of practical, detailed suggestions for incorporating the arts into every classroom.
