A survey of inclusive and selective music programs in California public secondary schools

Gardias, Karen Sue 01 January 1998 (has links) (PDF)
Music teachers were surveyed to investigate a relationship between program type (inclusive and selective) and music student enrollment in California public secondary schools. Inclusive music classes are open to all students. In contrast, selective music classes require students to demonstrate talent or previous experience. Graduation requirements, geographic location, teacher experience, community support, community expectations, and student ethnicity were examined to discover possible variables influencing music student enrollment. The results indicate a positive correlation between music student enrollment and the number of inclusive classes offered. Student enrollment significantly increased in music classes when music was integrated into the general curriculum. Other variables that significantly increased music student enrollment included parent and school board support. Some types of district support (number of music classes offered, music rooms, performance facilities, and accompanist) raised music student enrollment. No relationships were detected between music student enrollment and other variables such as: per pupil expenditure, graduation requirements, geographic location, and community expectations. As school size increased, the percentage of music student enrollment decreased. It was also found that music classes are not representative of the total student population.

The Musical Setting of Eight Choruses for Typical Music Classes of Grades Four to Six

Hamilton, Mary Joe 09 1900 (has links)
These eight were selected as typical lyrics to meet the diverse interests of students in the intermediate grades and to aid the teachers of those students in transmitting desired precepts and ideals. The poems are short and varied in verse form. The subject matter ranges from pirates and fairies to one's own conscience and Christmas; the moods, from whimsicality and nonsense to patriotism and reverence. The marked poetic devices influencing the choice of these particular lyrics are their rhythmical and alliterative quality; their rich, lively, yet correct language; their vivid imagery; their emotional appeal; and in a few cases their narrative quality.

An Analysis of the Course of Study for Instrumental Music Courses in the High Schools of Texas

Howard, William Harmon 06 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this survey was to analyze the course of study in instrumental music prescribed by the Texas State Department for the high schools of the state and to determine whether or not a coordinated and well-rounded program of education in instrumental music is being offered in the schools of Texas. It was hoped, furthermore, that, by comparing this program with others elsewhere, this analysis might show whether or not Texas is following any general trend in instrumental music education.

The Development of a Strategic Planning Model Applicable to Music Programs in Institutions of Higher Education

McMinn, Don J. (Don John) 08 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this project was to develop and recommend a strategic planning model that can be used by music executives in their management of music programs in institutions of higher education. Specifically, the study sought to (1) determine the aspects which influence the planning process, that are unique to the administration of a music program in institutions of higher education, and (2) develop a model that incorporates the major concepts of strategic planning and that can be applied to the planning process in music programs in institutions of higher education.

An Evaluation of the Music Programs in the Seventh-Day Adventist Academies in the United States

Thurber, Don W. 05 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to survey and evaluate the music programs in Seventh-day Adventist academies in the United States during the 19 75-76 school year. Data were collected by means of a survey form sent to all principals and music teachers in the eighty schools and a music achievement test administered to graduating seniors in twenty-eight randomly selected academies. Although most departments judged the music facilities to be adequate, library materials such as scores, filmstrips, and in-service resources were needed in the majority of schools. One-half of the music programs did not have listening facilities available for classroom use. Comparing achievement test results for graduating seniors in Adventist schools with those of the standardization sample revealed no significant differences. The null hypothesis was rejected, however, when comparing size of school, location of school, type of school (boarding or day), sex of the student, and amount of piano and instrumental experience.

The History of the Development of Public School Music in Taylor County, Texas

Moore, Katrina Lee 07 1900 (has links)
The first of any formal education in music that can be found from the records or from the memories of those who were present at the time was the singing school. One ranch in the Blair community has files in which records were found of all import ant events of the school and community life. These files relate the coming of the singing school regularly every summer. Shaped notes were taught front hymn books. At the end of the course, a certificate was given to those who graduated. The teacher of the school then moved on to the next engagement.
