В статье раскрывается проблема определения содержания региональной программы общего музыкального образования путем обоснования ее социально-культурных доминант. На основе рассмотрения действующих программ «Музыка» в Чувашской Республике в контексте их социально -культурных ориентиров дается описание факультативного курса «Музыкальное путешествие по родному краю» для начальных классов общеобразовательных школ Чувашии, который базируется на национальном музыкально-художественном материале. Данный факультативный курс опирается на результаты факторного анализа, обосновывающего те социально-культурные доминанты содержания курса, которые направлены на формирование у детей комплекса как музыкальных, так и этнокультурных знаний, умений и представлений в области национальной культуры. Основой исследования послужили научные труды по методике и методологии художественного образованияЭ. Б. Абдуллина, О. А. Апраксиной, Л. Г. Арчажниковой, Л. В. Кузнецовой. В результате исследования был проведен факторный анализ действующих данных программ по музыке, который показал следующее: глобализация образования, затрагивающая школьные предметы гуманитарного и художественно-эстетического циклов, не должна стирать этническое своеобразие народных культур, что ярко представлено их музыкальными традициями, направленными на воспитание в ребенке любви к родному краю, к Отечеству; в некоторых из анализируемых программ не в полной мере применяются принцип художественной интеграции на уроках музыки и метод художественного контекста. Тем самым не уделяется должного внимания культуроемкости региональных программ школьного музыкального образования. Исходя из этого актуальными социально -культурными основами, т. е. доминантами содержания региональной программы общего музыкального образования определены следующие: воспитание патриотов своей малой родины и России; гуманистическая, культуротворческая направленность профессиональной деятельности педагога-музыканта; этнокультурная толерантность как механизм формирования гражданского самосознания обучающихся. Проведенное исследование обладает практической значимостью и может быть использовано в различных образовательных организациях республики: в детских общеобразовательных школах, детских школах искусств, в курсах методики музыкального обучения и воспитания в музыкальнопедагогических колледжах, на факультетах музыкального образования и начальных классов педагогических вузов, в содержании курсов специализации и повышения квалификации учителей музыки. The article reveals the problem of determining the content of the regional programme of general music education by substantiating its socio-cultural dominants. Considering of the existing programmes “Music” in the Chuvash Republic, in the context of their socio-cultural guidelines, the author describes an optional course “Musical Journey to the Native Land” for the primary classes of general education schools in Chuvashia, which is based on national musical and artistic material. This optional course is based on the results of a factor analysis that justifies the socio-cultural dominants of the course content, which are aimed at the formation of a complex of both musical and ethnocultural knowledge, skills and ideas in the field of national culture in children. The research was based on scientific works on methodology of art education: E. B. Abdullin, O. A. Apraksina, L. G. Archazhnikova, L. V. Kuznetsova. As a result of the study, a factor analysis of the current data of music programmes was carried out. It showed that the globalization of education, affecting school subjects of humanitarian and artistic-aesthetic cycles, should not erase the ethnic originality of folk cultures, which is clearly represented by their musical traditions aimed at cultivation of love for their native land in a child, for the Fatherland; in some of the analyzed programmes, the principle of artistic integration in music lessons is not sufficiently used, as well as the method of artistic context. Thus, the cultural intensity of regional school music education programmes is not given due attention. Hence, the following are determined by the relevant socio-cultural foundations, that is, the dominants of the content of the regional programme of general musical education: education of patriots of both their small homeland and Russia; humanistic, cultural and creative orientation of professional activity of teacher-musician; ethno-cultural tolerance as a mechanism for the formation of civic identity of pupils. The study has practical significance and can be used in various educational systems of the republic: at children’s general education schools, children’s art schools, at courses on the methodology of musical education and education in music and pedagogical colleges, faculties of music education and primary classes of pedagogical universities, in the content of courses of specialization and advanced training of music teachers

The problem of research. The relevance of the research is due to the urgent need to find new approaches to the musical development of students in general education, which makes it significant to refer to the experience of France in connection with the existence in the country of an original model of musical education with an established system of multifaceted partnerships controlled by the bodies of the Ministry of National Education and the Ministry of Culture of France. The purpose of the article: scientific and practical justification of the need to develop a Russian strategy of musical development based on the interaction of educational and cultural organizations. Materials and methods. As a methodological basis, a system-structural approach was used, which made it possible to conceptualize the data obtained as a result of the analysis of sources, as well as in the process of personal communication with French colleagues. The results of the study. The mechanism of the studied interaction in various forms of educational, extracurricular and out-of-school musical activities is based on a clearly structured scheme of cooperation between schools and partner structures in the field of culture and art at the state (conceptual), academic (coordination) and local (performing) levels. The impetus for the construction of this system of partnerships was the recognition by the pedagogical community and the authorities of France of the priority of musical education as a powerful stimulant for the development of personal, intellectual and creative abilities of students necessary for successful implementation in any field of activity. Discussion and conclusion. The initial impulse to the emergence of the concept of attracting artistic and cultural structures in the musical and educational field was the introduction in the early 80s of the twentieth century of the original system of professional and amateur musical training of students in the framework of general education in college and lyceum. In the future, the experience of partnership interaction in the field under study gradually spread not only to academic, but also to extracurricular and out-of-school activities. As an important "breakthrough" of the French musical and educational project, a significant contribution to the educational activities of musical and cultural centers of global importance should be recognized. The far-sighted policy of the French authorities aimed at substantial support of artistic, especially musical culture as the basis for the development of the whole society can serve as a strategic guideline for the modernization of the music education system in Russia in terms of developing management schemes and educational technologies based on the interaction of educational institutions with cultural and art institutions.

It is thought that music education in general education, especially for individuals of all ages and levels, is important in the musical development of the individual. Besides, it is seen that the “listening-singing” learning area in general music education teaching programs has an important weight in the program. In this context, it is considered necessary that music listening activities carried out for this learning area should be among the main activities that support other musical activities in classroom music education, which form the basis for the students to benefit from music education. For this reason, it is thought that the active participation of the students in music listening activities will contribute to effective and efficient music education. With this study, it is aimed to determine the contribution of instructed music listening activities to music culture learning outcomes in secondary school music education. For this purpose, an instructed music listening activity was held for students in a secondary school. The effect of the activity performed on the level of success was measured with knowledge tests. According to the results it is found that most of the students achieved an above-moderate success from the recorder family knowledge test.

This book is an introduction to quantitative research design and data analysis presented in the context of music education scholarship. The book aims for readers to come away with a familiarity of prototypical research design possibilities as well as a fundamental understanding of data analysis techniques necessary for carrying out scientific inquiry. The book includes examples that demonstrate how the methodological and statistical concepts presented throughout can be applied to pertinent issues in music education. For the majority of Part I, the strategy is to present traditional design categories side by side with explanations of general analytical approaches for dealing with data yielded from each respective design type. Part II consists of chapters devoted to methodological and analytical approaches that have become common in related fields (e.g., psychology, sociology, general education research, educational policy) but are as yet not frequently exploited by music education researchers. Ultimately, this work is motivated by a desire to help scholars acquire the means to actualize their research curiosities and to contribute to the advancement of rigor in music education research throughout the profession at large.

How is it possible to move beyond assessment for the purposes of evaluating teacher proficiency and student performance outcomes and instead to consider assessment for understanding student musical experiences and preferences for the purpose of promoting lifelong musical engagement? This chapter includes and examines three distinct music education approaches that have been taken at the K–12 Sidney Lanier Center School for students with varying exceptionalities in Gainesville, Florida. Megan Sheridan illustrates inclusion and assessment using the Kodály approach. David Edmund and Jian-Jun Chen-Edmund examine creative lessons developed for exceptional learners in a general music setting. Steven Bingham and Donald DeVito illustrate adaptive jazz inclusion and performance for public school and university students with disabilities. This collaborative development in qualitative music assessment has taken place through (1) developing methods of communicating recognition of student engagement and affective responses during inclusive engagement in public school music education settings, specifically in Kodaly-based music instruction, K–12 general music classes, and secondary jazz ensembles; (2) using students’ interest and engagement as a means of curriculum development and assessment in inclusive public school music settings; and (3) building collaborative relationships with parents and the community for post-school lifelong music learning.

Increased availability of tablets at home and in classrooms provides educators access to a powerful tool for music instruction. Music production lessons on tablets offer alternate approaches to developing music literacies while teaching valuable technology skills. These activities are ideal for general music education because they align with contemporary music practices and are adaptable to a variety of learning environments (in person, remote, and hybrid). This article will present a model for tablet-based music production instruction in the general music classroom that aligns with the National Core Arts Standards and accompanying process components grounded in five essential skills: sequencing, recording, editing, effects processing, and mixing.

AbstractThe aspiration of this paper is to develop a novel approach towards investigating the socio-political history of mathematics teaching in educational systems. Traditionally, historical studies are confined to just one country, the author’s country. Broader approaches address international developments by confronting and comparing global and local aspects—revealing general patterns and more specific ‘local’ structures and characteristics. Yet, already in antiquity and medieval times, the specific characteristic of mathematics teaching, namely to operate at the crossroads of general education and vocational training, proved to be intimately tied to the functioning of the particular political system. In pre-modern times, however, a truly international pattern emerged for the first time: European powers conquered, occupied and colonised overseas regions. Given that educational systems were emerging at the same time within these states, they often transmitted elements of these structures to their colonies. This phenomenon included mathematics, and the history of its teaching is analysed here as a part of coloniality. It is shown that this was not a uniform process, and the differences between the various colonial powers are discussed. The involvement of mathematics in the process of decolonisation is addressed, as well as its role in the tension between continued coloniality and movements of decoloniality. Finally, the general framework provided for studying socio-political processes connected with establishing mathematics teaching within public educational systems is applied, in order to analyse recent coloniality practices effected by international achievement studies.

Scott Joplin was an African American composer and pianist of singular merit and influence. This article is the final entry in a three-part series considering the biographical, artistic, and cultural contexts of Joplin’s life and work and their use in K–12 general music education. “Ragtime Spaces” focuses on cultural globalization and the modernist entertainment aesthetic which supported Joplin’s work. Scott Joplin’s creative and entrepreneurial activities embodied humanism, racial uplift, and craftsmanship at a time when society became increasingly racially segregated and dehumanized. The discussion is followed by suggested student activities written in accordance with National Association for Music Education’s 2014 National Music Standards.
