The purpose of this study was to examine the life of Helen Marla Mutschler (b. 1935) and her contributions to string education. The study is divided into a prologue, five chapters, and an epilogue. The chapters are titled as follows: Beginnings (1932¬-1956), Journey to the Doctorate (1956-1973), Collegiate Teaching (1972-1983), Collegiate Teaching (1983-1999), and Retirement (1999-2012).Mutschler, violinist and string pedagogue, dedicated her career to teaching tension-free playing--the method of Paul Rolland. Mutschler served as a research assistant and later research associate to Rolland during the University of Illinois String Research Project (1966-67). Although her career was not highly publicized, she remained in the spotlight for many years appearing in Rolland workshops in Australia, Europe, and North America. In 2009, the American String Teachers Association presented Mutschler with the Paul Rolland Lifetime Achievement Award recognizing her contributions to the field. Mutschler's contributions to string education include teacher, performer, advocate, and presenter.

Symphonic Engagement: A Case Study of Extra-curricular Engagement in String OrchestrasLeong, Tony Nam-Hai 30 August 2010 (has links)
Symphonic Engagement is a longitudinal study spanning six years, investigating the reasons and benefits for, and the impact on twelve urban public school students who decided to use their free time to participate and be engaged in extra-curricular activities in string orchestras.
Literature and research inform us that the arts can play a significant role in the curriculum, inside and outside school, and this study discusses: the connection of the music curriculum to students’ future lives after secondary school graduation; the place of music education in the curriculum; music in our society; music and the brain; the effect of after-school programs on student engagement; and the pedagogy of arts education.
Case study is the qualitative methodology used in this research. Data comes from interviews, field notes, and questionnaires that explore and interrogate the issues surrounding music education. Twelve young participants, from different gender, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds, were interviewed about their lived experiences and involvement with string orchestras, and on the ways in which these experiences have affected them as students and as members of society.
The analysis of the data reveals connections between the author’s arts experiences in the public school system, and those of the twelve students interviewed.
The teacher-student relationship, equity, family influence, and technology are discussed as factors that can strengthen programs for youth, by deepening engagement in school experiences.
This study explores why some teachers and students choose to participate or become engaged in extra-curricular activities and examines the impact on educational communities, on the future direction of string education, and on the relationship of the teaching/learning experience.

An Investigation of String Project Teachers’ and Directors’ Perspectives on the Skills and Behaviors Important for String TeachingJanuary 2019 (has links)
abstract: This study examined directors’, master teachers’, graduate and undergraduate
String Project teachers’ perspectives of the skills and behaviors important for teaching strings. Participants were from the 40 String Projects listed on the National String Project Consortium website, including String Project directors (n = 16), master teachers (n = 7), graduate (n = 6) and undergraduate string teachers (n = 46) involved in String Projects across the United States. Participants ranged in age from 18 to 72 years old.
The survey for this study was based on Teachout’s 1997 survey pertaining to teachers’ skills and behaviors in three categories: teaching, personal, musical. A cover letter containing a link to the electronic survey was sent to directors and master teachers for the 40 String Projects, requesting their participation and the participation of their string teachers. Seventy-five participants from 19 String Projects completed the survey.
Means and standard deviations were calculated for each item for each of the four participant groups. Overall means for each category of skills and behaviors were calculated followed by a one-way Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) to determine which of the three categories the teachers and directors believed most important. Three one-way MANOVAs were used to analyze participants’ perspectives for three broad categories of skills and behaviors (personal, teaching, and musical) across the four participant groups. No significant differences were found across all three MANOVA analyses. Additionally, descriptive statistics were used to determine the rankings of importance for the four participant groups on 40 survey items.
Results showed that participants in all four groups believed that personal skills and behaviors were more important than teaching and musical skills and behaviors.
Also conducted were Pearson Product-Moment Correlations, which analyses revealed a strong positive relationship between the ranked perceptions of musical and teaching skills and behaviors (r = .78, p = .00), between musical and personal skills and behaviors (r = .65, p = .00), and between personal and teaching skills and behaviors (r = .84, p = .00). Strong positive correlations were found between the three categories. Recommendations for research and practice were given. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Music Education 2019
