Innovate: The Fusion of Learning Theory and Technology in an Online Music History Course Redesign

  • Details of how a teacher-centered music history course was revised to become a successful learner-centered, multimedia rich course.

Art for our sake - The Boston Globe

  • An argument for including the arts in education not because the courses raise standardized test scores, but because of the innovation, analysis, persistence, envisioning and other skills students develop through learning art, music, drama, and dance. (Registration required to read the full article)
    "Teachers in our study told students not to worry about mistakes, but instead to let mistakes lead to unexpected discoveries."
    "We don't need the arts in our schools to raise mathematical and
    verbal skills - we already target these in math and language arts. We
    need the arts because in addition to introducing students to aesthetic
    appreciation, they teach other modes of thinking we value. For students living in a rapidly changing world, the arts teach vital modes of seeing, imagining, inventing, and thinking."

ScienceDaily: Music Training 'Tunes' Human Auditory System

  • Interesting research on changes in the brain due to music training. I'm not sure if their conclusion is entirely justified--they may have gotten those results just because it was a tone language. More concrete evidence that music training is beneficial is always welcome.

  • The study, which will appear in the April issue of Nature Neuroscience, is the first to provide concrete evidence that playing a musical instrument significantly enhances the brainstem's sensitivity to speech sounds. This finding has broad implications because it applies to sound encoding skills involved not only in music but also in language.
