Book Synopsis Urban Music Education by : Kate Fitzpatrick-Harnish
Download or read book Urban Music Education written by Kate Fitzpatrick-Harnish and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-09 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prevailing discourse surrounding urban music education suggests the deficit-laden notion that urban school settings are "less than," rather than "different than," their counterparts. Through the lens of contextually-specific teaching, this book provides a counternarrative on urban music education that encourages urban music teachers to focus on the strengths of their students as their primary resource. Through a combination of research-based strategies and practical suggestions from the author's own experience teaching music in urban settings, the book highlights important issues for teachers to consider, such as culturally relevant pedagogy, the "opportunity gap," race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, musical content, curricular change, music program development, student motivation, and strategies for finding inspiration and support. Throughout the book, the stories of five highly successful urban music teachers are highlighted, providing practical, real-world advice for music teachers across the domains of general, choral, band, and string music teaching. Recognizing that the term "urban" can encompass a wide variety of different school and community settings, this book challenges all teachers who work in under-served and under-resourced settings to take a critical look at their own music classroom and work to tailor their pedagogy to meet the particular needs of their students.

Book Synopsis Engaging Students with Music Education by : Pete Dale
Download or read book Engaging Students with Music Education written by Pete Dale and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engaging Students with Music Education is a groundbreaking book about using DJ decks and urban music in mainstream schools to re-engage disaffected learners and develop a curriculum which better reflects overall contemporary tastes. Many young learners are ‘at risk’ of exclusion; this book argues that for such individuals, the implications of such a shift in the music curriculum could be especially positive. Drawing extensively on the author’s own wealth of teaching experience, and bridging the gap between practice and theory, this book demonstrates through case studies that DJ decks can prove extremely valuable in mainstream classroom situations across the secondary school age ranges. Addressing challenging and crucial topics, combining rigorous theoretical analysis with practical suggestions, the book addresses questions such as: Are DJ decks actually a musical instrument, and are they suitable for classroom teaching? Will Ofsted's school inspectors approve of music teaching involving DJ decks and urban music? If we bring urban music into the classroom, will this further marginalise classical music? Are DJing and MCing skills recognised within examination specifications, at least in the UK? Current teachers will find the practical advice on how to incorporate DJ decks and urban music into their classroom especially helpful, whilst educational researchers will be captivated by the critical discussion of the child-centred tradition and a theoretical approach which stretches from ‘continental’ philosophy to practice-based reflection. With an insistence that the starting point for music education should always be the interests and experiences of the learners, this book is essential reading for those music teachers and researchers interested in the benefits of non-standard music-making in the classroom.
Book Synopsis Urban Music and Entrepreneurship by : Joy White
Download or read book Urban Music and Entrepreneurship written by Joy White and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Youth unemployment in the UK remains around the one million mark, with many young people from impoverished backgrounds becoming and remaining NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training). However, the NEET categorisation covertly disguises and obscures the significance of the diverse range of activities, achievements and accomplishments of those who operate in the informal creative economy. With grime music and its related enterprise a key component of the urban music economy, this book employs the inherent contradictions and questions that emerge from an exploration of the grime music scene to build a complex reading of the socio-economic significance of urban music. Incorporating insightful dialogue with the participants in this economy, White challenges the prevailing wisdom on marginalised young people, whilst also confronting the assumption that the inertia and localisation of the grime culture results from its close links to NEET "members" and the informal sector. Offering an ethnographic and timely critique of the NEET classification, this compelling book would be suitable for undergraduate and post-graduate students interested in urban studies, business, work and labour, education and employment, ethnography, music, and cultural studies.

Book Synopsis Urban Education by : Karen Symms Gallagher
Download or read book Urban Education written by Karen Symms Gallagher and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many factors complicate the education of urban students. Among them have been issues related to population density; racial, ethnic, cultural, and linguistic diversity; poverty; racism (individual and institutional); and funding levels. Although urban educators have been addressing these issues for decades, placing them under the umbrella of "urban education" and treating them as a specific area of practice and inquiry is relatively recent. Despite the wide adoption of the term a consensus about its meaning exists at only the broadest of levels. In short, urban education remains an ill-defined concept. This comprehensive volume addresses this definitional challenge and provides a 3-part conceptual model in which the achievement of equity for all -- regardless of race, gender, or ethnicity – is an ideal that is central to urban education. The model also posits that effective urban education requires attention to the three central issues that confronts all education systems (a) accountability of individuals and the institutions in which they work, (b) leadership, which occurs in multiple ways and at multiple levels, and (c) learning, which is the raison d'être of education. Just as a three-legged stool would fall if any one leg were weak or missing, each of these areas is essential to effective urban education and affects the others.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate teacher perceptions of current critical issues in urban music education programs. Specifically, the research questions asked were: 1) What are the major challenges and gratifications experienced by urban instrumental music teachers? 2) What teaching strategies best promote musical achievement and engage urban students? 3) What are the most effective strategies for recruiting and retaining urban music educators? A review of literature provided information on the characteristics of urban culture, the needs of music education in urban schools, culturally relevant teaching, diversified teacher preparation, the recruitment and retention of urban teachers, and profiles of successful urban teachers. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods were used to provide a more detailed and comprehensive analysis of teacher perspectives. A survey questionnaire was sent to music educators in the Atlanta Public School system (N = 70). In addition, urban music educators (n = 6) were interviewed to gain additional insight regarding the specific challenges and practices of urban educators. Results of the study indicated that: -Although a major challenge is present in the need to address cultural differences and connect with the students, teachers value the opportunity to instill the values experienced in musical performances0́4teamwork and the belief that success is possible through hard work and perseverance.-Successful urban teachers set boundaries and remain consistent in their daily expectations and procedures0́4while letting students know that they genuinely care about them.-Music teacher education programs should ensure that all graduates are well prepared to teach in an urban environment and have been exposed to diverse types of school populations.

Book Synopsis Urban Music Education by : Trevor W. P. Casto
Download or read book Urban Music Education written by Trevor W. P. Casto and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This thesis includes a review of issues related to the lives and experiences of urban children in an effort to identify the most helpful and appropriate methods for teaching them, specifically in the context of general music education. It proposes that general music teachers in urban schools should explore a wide range of nontraditional experiences with their students in order to provide a more vital, enriching, and meaningful appreciation of music as an integral part of a fulfilling life. A community plays a vitally important role in determining the experiences children have and the lessons they take from them; thus, their approach to education. In the area of music education, teachers may be uniquely equipped to address some of the needs of students that are particularly apparent in urban children. One significant example is that music can help to build understanding among groups of people who are fundamentally different. Schools must continue to search for new and more effective ways to engage low-income students in the learning process and thereby provide them with hope for greater success and stability in life. Examining the gifts and challenges that urban students bring to the classroom can provide valuable insight to creating a more productive future for urban education. General music teachers in urban schools should be encouraged to look for any means of providing a more enriching, and meaningful appreciation of music as an integral part of a fulfilling life. The traditional approaches that have linked us together as music educators have always been largely focused on how we are teaching about music. Alternatively, perhaps we should focus on what it is about music that we are teaching. Foremost in our curricular goals and expectations should be the unceasing mission to provide each one of our students with that one magical moment that will result in a true understanding of the value of music and its place in our lives.
