The founder of this work sought to integrate the Life History of this researcher with the description and critical analysis of practices developed in musical projects carried out in a private elementary school in the city of São Paulo. The nature of the analysis process allowed the construction of a dense narrative, contributed in the matrix of Interdisciplinarity proposed by Ivani Fazenda, directing the collection of data of the research for the observation of important aspects of the relations and correlations between researcher, teaching performance, its student role and meanings of the school community. Interdisciplinarity provided the narrative-descriptive methodological process, a deep reveal of significant learning acquired in the process of personal and professional construction, which overflows and transposes personal barriers and floods the school universe. The result obtained, points to Interdisciplinarity as an aesthetic and sensitive need, which a Musical Educator lacks to be connected when the full exercise of teaching, because in order to achieve it in essence, they must be freed to provide freedom, autonomous, to enable autonomy and "Whole" to feel, think and do / Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo romper o silêncio imposto pelo currículo formal da Educação Básica, à Educação Musical e Educadores. O fundante deste trabalho buscou integrar a História de Vida desta pesquisadora com a descrição e análise crítica de práticas desenvolvidas em projetos musicais realizadas em três escolas privadas de Ensino Fundamental da cidade de São Paulo. A natureza do processo de análise permitiu a construção de uma densa narrativa, aportada na matriz da Interdisciplinaridade proposta por Ivani Fazenda, direcionando a coleta de dados da pesquisa para a observação de aspectos importantes das relações e correlações entre pesquisador, atuação docente, seu papel discente e significados da comunidade escolar. A Interdisciplinaridade propiciou ao processo metodológico narrativo-descritivo, um profundo revelar de aprendizagens significativas adquiridas no processo de construção pessoal e profissional, que transborda e transpõem as barreiras pessoais e inunda o universo escolar. O resultado obtido aponta para a Interdisciplinaridade da música como uma necessidade estética e sensível, a qual um Educador Musical carece de estar conectado quando do exercício pleno da docência, pois para atingi-la em essência, precisam estar libertos para propiciar liberdade, autônomos, para possibilitar autonomia e “Inteiros” para Sentir, Pensar e Fazer

Caznok / Banca: Flávio Apro / Resumo: Esta pesquisa, de caráter bibliográfico, foi pautada tomando como base o questionamento: Quais as razões que impedem a utilização ampla da tecnologia nos processos de ensino e aprendizagem musical, considerando - se o seu amplo emprego na sociedade? Para sua confecção foram traçados os seguintes objetivos: 1 - Descrever e refletir sobre o uso de tecnologias de informação e comunicação na sociedade, na educação e no ensino musical brasileiro, sob uma ótica sociocultural e educacional; 2 - Descrever os atores desse mundo tecnológico focando mais intensamente as teorias veiculadas por GARDNER & DAVIS (2013); STRAUSS & HOWE e PRENSKY (1991); 3 - verificar em que medida as Revistas Científicas na área de Música têm realizado textos referendando esta temática. A justificativa encontra - se no fato de que se houver uma intensificação do emprego de ferramentas tecnológicas no ensino musical, a música enquanto área de conhecimento terá melhor desenvolvimento. A metodologia da pesquisa adotada constituiu - se de um levantamento bibliográfico de autores, entre eles, SANTOMÉ (2013), NOVAK (2012), SIEMENS (2004), LÉVY (1993;1999,2003) sem desconsiderar os autores acima citados.

For its preparation the following objectives were outlined: 1 - reflect and discuss about the use of information and communication technologies in society and in education and as the Brazilian music education in a socio - cultural and educati onal perspective. 2 - Describe the actors in this technological world focusing more intensely in theories propagated by GARDNER & DAVIS (2013); STRAUSS & HOWE and PRENSKY (1991). 3 - Check as the Journals in the Music area have carried out texts endorsing this theme. The justification for its realization lies in the fact that if there is an intensification of the use of technological tools in teaching music, music as knowledge area will have a considerable advance. The research methodology adopted consisted of a literature of authors, among them, SANTOMÉ (2013), Novak (2012), Siemens (2004), Levy (1993, 1999, 2010), without disregarding the others aforementioned authors. Besides the introduction and the final considerations were outlined six chapters, first charpter addressed the Cyberspace, second described the practical examples of the construction of collective intelligence. The third chapter dealt with the processes of teaching and learning as connectivism well. The fourth chapter took care of ICTs and it s adoption in everyday life, in education and musical education. The fifth refers to the actors in the technological scenario, evidenced in the theories of GARDNER & DAVIS; STRAUSS & HOWE and PRENSKY. The sixth chapter has introduced Music Journals with Qualis A1 and A2 that address the relationship of technology with music. The seventh deliveries the researcher's point fo view about the material ... (Complete abstract click electronic access bellow) / Doutor

Orientador: Gisela Gomes Pupo Nogueira / Banca: Dorotéa Machado Kerr / Banca: Rosemara Staub de Barros / Resumo: Ao elaborar uma performance o músico está ciente de que decisões terão de serem tomadas. Este trabalho discute a respeito dos processos de tomadas de decisões e as suas relações com a performance, enfatizando principalmente as descobertas realizadas por Teversky e Kahneman. A ideia de racionalidade plena é contestada, fundamentando-se nas pesquisas que abordam as falácias nas decisões. Os processos cognitivos que auxiliam na velocidade de nossas escolhas - heurísticas - são responsáveis por erros sistemáticos - vieses. Os vieses são exemplos de nossa parcial racionalidade. Diante da complexidade que a performance possui e dos desafios enfrentados por um performer, defendemos a necessidade da proposta elaborada por um músico profissional ser coerente com a sua apresentação, para isso expomos a ideia de eficiência na performance defendida por Herr. O conflito existente entre a racionalidade parcial do ser humano e a busca pela eficiência é apresentado. A fim de tentar aprimorar o modelo de eficiência analisamos algumas das decisões realizadas pelo performer e buscamos identificar a utilização de heurísticas e vieses. Ter conhecimento dessas questões permite que sejamos mais conscientes de nossas escolhas e fornece novas ferramentas que possibilitem identificar e evitar os erros sistemáticos, aprimorando o modelo de eficiência. Por fim, apresentamos propostas para futuras pesquisas com o desígnio de ampliar o arcabouço teórico que possuímos / Abstract: In developing a performance the musician is aware that decisions must be taken. This work discussed about the processes of decision-making and its relationship with performance, highlighting the discoveries made by Kahneman and Teversky. The idea of full rationality is challenged, basing on the research addressing the fallacies in the decisions. The cognitive processes that help speed our choices - heuristics - are responsible for systematic errors - biases. Biases are examples of our partial rationality. Given the complexity that has performance and the challenges faced by a performer, we sustain the need for the proposal prepared by a professional musician to be consistent with his presentation, to expound on this idea of efficiency in performance advocated by Herr. The conflict between the partial rationality of the human and the pursuit of efficiency is presented. In order to try to improve the efficiency model we analyze some of the decisions made by the performer and seek to identify the use of heuristics and biases. Knowledge of these issues allows us to be more conscious of our choices and provides new tools that enable the identification and avoidance of systematic errors, improving efficiency model. Finally, we present proposals for future research with the plan to expand the theoretical framework that we have / Mestre

The primary purpose of this research was to ascertain the attitudes and opinions of Church of God (Anderson, Indiana)* musicians regarding continuing education. The secondary purpose of the study was to determine the types of continuing education experiences that are needed by current church musicians who are employed by, or volunteer for Church of God congregations.An online survey was developed and made available to current musicians serving in Church of God congregations. One hundred and fourteen participants responded to the survey.The writer gathered data from participants regarding their personal information, details about their congregation, about their responsibilities with their congregations, their personal belief statements about their position with their congregation and their interest in and/or barriers to receiving further education.The initial hypotheses for this study were: 1) many who lead worship in Church of God congregations are not trained or educated in the skills and knowledge needed to serve effectively. 2) Many of these persons are not opposed to continued education in church music topics, but they do not know where to look for the training, and, in many cases, the type of educational resources they need do not exist.The results of the study indicated a great interest in receiving continuing education in the worship arts The study also indicated that time, money and family constraints prove to be significant obstacles in the pursuance of further education by music and worship leaders.The data gathered from the study indicated that the types of continuing educational experiences that musicians practicing in the Church, of God congregations need are many and varied. The writer concluded that those who would provide such experiences must take into consideration the constraints and barriers most of these leaders experience and provide practical and theological and philosophical elements.Data were presented in narrative form with the help of listings and figures when appropriate. Based on the data received, the writer gave recommendations for continuing educational opportunities. / School of Music

This study was undertaken in an effort to determine the effects of piano instruction on attitudes and piano skills of elementary education majors enrolled in a music methods class. A class of nineteen elementary education majors at a private mid-western university served as subjects for the case study. They were given both written and oral pre and posttests, and extensive anecdotal data were recorded.As a result of the study, general conclusions and recommendations were as follows:1. Subjects' initial perceptions of their probable success in the piano laboratory were high. In addition, seventy-nine percent of the subjects accurately predicted their probable success (or failure) in the piano laboratory. It is recommended that instructors take time at the outset of the course to reassure and encouage the students in an effort to increase confidence and thereby the probability of success in the piano laboratory.2. Subjects' attitudes and skill development were negatively affected by perceived inadequacies when comparing themselves to other subjects in the class. As the more advanced students tested out of the piano laboratory, skills and attitudes of the slower subjects improved appreciably. This suggests that ability grouping in methods classes may improve students' perceptions and also performances in these lasses.3. Subjects' confidence in their ability to teach music increased, as indicated by pretest and posttest rankings. Since the sample size was adequately large, the Wilcoxin T value of 7.5 was standardized to a Z value = 2.66 (p <.01). Interpretation of a Z-value = 2.66 strongly suggests the posttest score has significantly increased over the pretest score.4. Subjects' perceptions of their ability to read and write music, their ability to sing songs with their students, and their piano playing ability significantly increased as shown by a series of paired comparisons t-test analyses on the pretest/ posttest data.It is recommended that additional case studies be conducted in the methods class in an effort to isolate and identify additional aspects of the class which influence the students' growth and/ or lack of growth in self confidence and musical skills. / School of Music

The purpose of this study was to compare and review curricular offerings in selected institutions in the United States that presently are identified as offering (a) formal degree(s) in jazz studies to music majors at the master's degree level.This writer has identified: common areas of study, similarities in jazz studies departmental core requirements, and school of music core requirements, ensemble participation required of students, ensembles available to students, and areas unique to a particular curricula. One hundred percent of the institutions surveyed were members of the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). The review of related literature includes general guidelines and principles as published by NASM pertaining to specific master's degrees in jazz studies.A secondary goal was to identify elements relating to the academic and professional background of the jazz studies directors, and the collective graduate jazz faculty as a unit.A third goal was to establish a composite sketch of the typical graduate jazz program and curriculum in the United States.Using the process of content analysis, various university catalogs and graduate handbooks were reviewed. Additionally, questionnaires completed by the directors of jazz studies programs from twenty-three universities were examined. The questionnaire asked respondents to identify their professional and academic background, in addition to estimating information regarding the academic and professional backgrounds of the collective graduate jazz faculty. Professional experience questions related to recording dates, concerts, touring, casual dates, and show experience. Academic background questions related to degrees held, when and where they were earned, continuing education practices, and publishing background. Respondents were asked to provide institutional demographics and philosophies in relation to existing curricula, and various institutional policies regarding the jazz studies department and the prioritization of course work and essential skills. Further, respondents were asked to give statistical information regarding the age of various programs within the curriculum, student population, library holdings, ensemble availability, performance and touring practices, type of literature performed, graduate assistants, administrative support, and guest artist budgets. Data were presented in combination narrative and outline form. Tables were utilized whenever appropriate. / School of Music

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of iconic-based rhythmic instruction on middle school instrumentalists' ability to read rhythms at sight in the preparation of music for sight-reading. One hundred thirty-one middle school students from 12 randomly assigned bands in the Midwestern United States provided data for a pretest-posttest control-group design. Of the 12 participating middle schools, four schools served as the control group (n= 42), four schools delivered rhythmic instruction using iconic-based methods (n= 42), and four schools delivered isolated rhythmic training using symbolic-based methods (n= 47).Using adjusted pretest scores from a researcher-constructed rhythm test (Rhythm Sight-Reading Performance Ability), the Musical Aptitude Profile (1995), and the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (1999), results of an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) revealed that no group obtained a significant difference on the posttest mean scores from the rhythmic performance test (F= 1.940, df= 1, 107, p= .149). Because results from individual schools showed considerable variation, other variables were observed to see if they were significant. Findings from an ANCOVA revealed that the individual school was significant (F= 3.141, df= 9, 107, p= .002).To verify the relationship found between the individual school and the posttest measurement, an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was run with the pretest and posttest scores serving as repeated measures. The results indicate that a significant interaction between the individual school and the pretest to posttest measurement exists. In light of these findings, it is speculated that the key to improving a student's rhythm-reading ability may be dependent not only on the method, but also on the quality of instructional delivery. / School of Music

The purpose of the study was to explore metacognitive strategy usage in young choristers engaged in notational literacy tasks. Constructivist approaches encouraging metacognition are used in many subject areas, but have not been studied within a music context. Music-specific strategies (Killian & Henry, 2005) and metacognitive self-regulatory strategies (Zimmerman & Pons, 1986) were sought to learn how students become musically independent. Ten extra-curricular honour choir participants were studied using a collective case design. Participants completed a background questionnaire, a notational reading session, a performance of the piece studied in the reading session, and an interview describing their learning, which was recorded, analysed and transcribed. Processes of analysis included case aggregation, direct interpretation, and triangulation. Results indicate 1) learning is an individual process, 2) all students used strategies deliberately, though none evaluated the effectiveness of their choices, 3) students using the most strategies achieved the highest accuracy, and 4) students seemed to enjoy and benefit from discussing metacognitive processes.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the multi-sensory responses of children to symbolizing musical sound through speech rhythm patterns. Speech rhythm patterns consist of the number of syllables and the stress/nonstress relationships of these syllables in a word or a phrase. The research problems were (1) to determine children's responses to speech rhythm patterns according to the differential sensory modes used; (2) to determine the children's responses to speech rhythm patterns by age, and (3) to compare children's responses to speech rhythm patterns by age and sensory modes.
