An Analysis of the Vocal Teaching Techniques of Allan Rogers LindquestForrest, Margaret O. (Margaret Ogburn) 08 1900 (has links)
The problem with which this research is concerned is the documentation of Allan Rogers Lindquest's vocal teaching techniques and contributions to the field of vocal pedagogy in America from 1974 to 1981. The purpose of this study is the identification and compilation of voice building techniques and vocal exercises that were formulated for vocal pedagogy by Lindquest. As a result of reviewing the literature related to vocal pedagogy, which identifies methods of voice teaching and contrasts pedagogical styles, the research questions developed for this study concern the identification and classification of Lindquest's teaching techniques in instructional areas that include breath and breath support, areas of resonance, vowels and vowel modification, vocal registers, other related areas of vocal production, and the directions for and expected results of special vocal exercises. The sources of data for this study are verbatim transcripts of fifty-six audio tapes of voice lessons conducted by Lindquest with seven students.

The effectiveness of using songs and music to foster motivation and language development in the young English L2 classroomGafor, Susan, Sihvola Hartmann, Lise January 2020 (has links)
Teachers work with large student groups and their job is to make their pupils’ grow and evolve in their learning every day, even though the students may not be interested in the subject at all. How can teachers manage to do this with such a variety of students? What tools can be used to motivate as many of them as possible to achieve the most favourable learning outcomes? Music is a universal language that most people enjoy and for children it is even a natural part of growing up. Music can be a pleasant and fun element in the classroom, so we want to investigate if teachers could take advantage of this and use music and songs as an effective motivator to foster second language development. In the national curriculum, Skolverket states that teachers need to build upon the pupil’s confidence in their own ability to use language in different situations and for different purposes (Skolverket, 2011). What happens with the classroom environment when music is used and what happens to the pupils? There is research pointing to the benefits of using music in second language learning however, there exists some disagreement among researchers if music could improve language development or if it is just a fun activity. Researchers also discuss on how to use music in the classroom in the most valuable way. In the current study, we explore and provide an overview for the possible advantages of using music. We also investigate the effectiveness of different musical approaches for facilitating language learning for young children in an educational context. In particular, we will discuss how songs and music can motivate young English language learners in their process and how the second language development can benefit from this.

Možnosti a meze využití ICT ve výuce / Possibilities and Limits of the ICT Use in TeachingCypriánová, Eliška January 2012 (has links)
Possibilities and Limits of the ICT Use in Teaching Key words: ICT (Information and Communication Technologies - netbooks, interactive boards, PC etc.), pedagogical communication, teaching techniques, organizational forms of work, participant observation This diploma thesis deals with the theme of ICT use in teaching - their possibilities and limits. The theoretical part consists of use of selected types of ICT, methodology and didactic aspects when using ICT, and projects concerning the introduction of ICT into teaching. The empirical part consists of research focused on the pupils in the second stage of basic education. The methods of this research have been done in the form of participant observation supplemented with semi-structured interviews with teachers and video recordings, which should specify the observation. The aim of the empirical part is to concentrate on teacher's pedagogical communication with learners (with respect to verbal and nonverbal communication), teaching techniques and organizational forms of work, the ways of use of ICT in teaching realized with pupils in the second stage of basic education at a Prague basic school, and then interpret the results obtained.

Možnosti a meze využití ICT při výuce na 1. stupni základní školy / The posibilities and limits of using ICT during the 1. gradePekařová, Tereza January 2018 (has links)
The theme of the thesis is the Possibilities of using ICT at the first level of elementary school, but also the definition of negatives and limitations in teaching at elementary school. The thesis is divided into two parts, namely the theoretical part and the practical part of the work. I focus mainly on the use of ICT and on the prerequisites for introducing ICT into elementary schools and subsequently on the individual ICT tools in elementary schools and the possibilities of their use. The use of ICT is understood as a tool for developing pupils' general and cross-curricular competence and for developing communication and critical thinking at the first level of elementary school. Innovative teaching methods based on active and empirical learning and expanded by information and communication technologies can increase the engagement of pupils and improve their results, as shown by the questionnaire survey and the chapters of the theoretical part of the thesis. The methodology of the thesis is based on the analytical and comparative method in the theoretical part of the thesis and on the method of quantitative research in the form of a questionnaire survey in the practical - empirical part of the thesis. The theoretical part is based on a set of literature, which is presented at the end of the...

We Can Do It (Education) Better: An Examination of Four Secondary School Approaches for Aboriginal Students in Northwestern OntarioLandon, Rocky 17 December 2012 (has links)
The following study is an exercise in understanding how educators can improve their professional practice in terms of addressing the needs of Aboriginal high school students. The study was delimited to four different high schools in Northwestern Ontario in order to develop a broader understanding of best practices used by various school communities. Interviews were conducted with students and educational professionals such as teachers, administrators, guidance personnel and school board members. The study was completed over a period of one week, where one day was spent in each school completing interviews.
This study is unique in two ways: it presents the voices of secondary school educators (which had scarcely been reported or heard in the academic community) outlining the direction in which Aboriginal education should go and secondly, as a researcher I attempted to use the medicine wheel as a model for completing and conducting research.
There were a number of findings that appeared through the interviews. Teachers and administrators agreed that in order for Aboriginal students to succeed they needed to have involved parental support. It was important to teachers that parents take an active role in the educational life of their child. Additionally, it was acknowledged that First Nation communities were ideal settings for schooling of Aboriginal students as they were supported by family and community kinships. Yet in this study, it was also acknowledged that First Nation schools suffered financially in comparison to provincial schools. They were not able to provide programming comparable to provincial schools and
iii
were limited to a barebones program with compulsory courses being offered. In some cases, if students failed a course, they were not able to participate in the rest of the school program, until the course was re-taught in two years. Despite these shortcomings, students might do better in First Nation based schools if they were adequately funded with current resources and adequately compensated teachers.
This study offers some suggestions on how to improve the practice of educating First Nation secondary students.
