It was the intent of this study to evaluate music teacher competencies which had been identified by a committee working with members of the Florida Music Educators Association. Although a large representation from component organizations had been involved in the identification process, there had not been an appraisal of the final list of competencies by the total membership. / A questionnaire was designed and sent to members of the Florida Music Educators Association to determine their perception of the importance of each competency identified as necessary for beginning music teachers. A binomial response mode was utilized to request assessment of "Necessary" or "Unnecessary" for each competency identified. Respondents also were asked to appraise the degree to which they considered themselves to have been prepared by their respective undergraduate institutions to demonstrate each of the competencies. / Of the 186 competencies listed, 178 received a necessity rating of 70% or higher. Respondents also indicated an overall high level of confidence in the effectiveness of their preparation to demonstrate the competencies. / The study provides data which can assist faculties and administrators of colleges and universities in determining future needs related to music teacher preparation. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 47-01, Section: A, page: 0115. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1985.
