    Some of the top music education blogs to provide instructional resources to music educators.
  •  
    The title says it all. This is a collection of music education blogs, covering all kinds of topics.
  •  
    The Music Education Blogs link contains links to blogs for all sorts of music educators.  The links are catered to specific school settings, teaching methodologies, ensembles, and free online services.  I enjoyed exploring several of the blogs because blogging is something I've just become acquainted to within my graduate studies with the University of Florida's Online Master of Music.  For example, I clicked on the "Elementary Blogs" tab to see what some of my elementary music educator colleagues have to say/share.  A handful of links to other teachers' blogs and websites were made available at a click of the mouse.  I clicked on the first link, "Mrs. Miracle's Music Room," and was able to read posts from "Mrs. Miracle" about her teaching strategies for classroom management when utilizing technology.  Her blog contained other features like a personal bio and links.  My blog for this course doesn't contain those things, and perhaps exploring the blogger.com website more would allow me to make similar changes to my Blog. Being able to share ideas within any online community, in this case a blogging community, could be so useful for any sort of educator.  Considering we are currently enrolled in an online Master of Music program, we are capable of sharing ideas from across the country and even across the globe.  This blog link just makes that possibility more accessible with more educators.

    World music resources including forums, FAQ's resources, new customs. It is set up for any teacher. It specifically says the teacher does not have to read music. The best thing about it is the forum. A teacher can learn from the forum buy reading other's ideas. The worst thing about this is they are trying to sell their books. However, they do have other resources linked to their website.

It's Not How Much; It's How: EBSCOhost - 1 views

  • Irrespective of the pedagogical implications of the more recent studies of practice behavior, making practice assignments in terms of time practiced instead of goals accomplished remains one of the most curious and stubbornly persistent traditions in music pedagogy
  • In fact, informal reviews of private teachers' instructions for practice reveal that teachers commonly assign only what to practice and how long to practice, with little attention given to specific proximal goals to be accomplished each day.
  • This is in stark contrast to assignments in many academic disciplines in school, where students are given sets of problems to solve, chapters to read, or essays to write, and the time devoted to homework is determined by the time required to complete the problems, read the chapters, or compose the essays. It seems readily accepted in other disciplines by teachers and students alike that all students will not devote the same amount of time to assignments, because individual learners work at different rates and different learners will not require the same amount of time to complete each assignment. How long one works depends on how long it takes to accomplish the assigned goals.

  • This seems an indication that the nature of the practice defined in our observations was more determinative of retention test performance than was the amount of practice.
  • Our results show that, among our sample of performers, the strategies employed during practice were more determinative of their retention test performances than was how much or how long they practiced.
  • Thus, it seems that the actions taken subsequent to the discovery of errors were major determinants of the effectiveness of practice.
  • The most effective way that the participants corrected errors was by making judicious changes in performance speed that facilitated the maintenance of accuracy following the correction of a given error.
  • These results point to the importance of developing in young musicians effective approaches to correcting errors — procedures that preclude errors' persistence.
  • There is no doubt that most students have heard their teachers demonstrate good playing, but it is probably also true that few have observed their teachers encountering performance problems and advantageously addressing them.

    Meeting of practice goals more important than just measuring time spent

    This sites contains downloadable links that contain very lucid and practical curricular ideas and suggestion for beginning and intermediate guitar classes and ensembles.

The "further reading" at the bottom is icing in the cake.

Rising Software - 0 views

  •  
    Auralia5 and Musition5 are very good soft wares for a music classroom. Auralia is for ear training, while Musition is for music theory. These softwares enhance a student's musicianship through very interesting activities of listening, composing, notating music, and sight reading/playing. A school has to purchase the software, though it is cloud based. The teacher adds students to different classes in the groups so that when assignments are set, they are easily submitted to the class where they belong. Teachers can create and assign worksheets, tests, and courses, and grade his/her students online as well. Tracking allows the teachers to run exams with high quality content that students love. Reports are also created in the software and parents can access their children's performance. Auralia and Musition are perfect for students of all ages and abilities. Auralia has a clean, easy to use interface designed to keep students focused on their essential ear training task.
