| dc.description | The purpose of this project is to demonstrate how a computer filing system can support an elementary music curriculum. Appropriate listening examples are essential for teaching the elements of music to young children and expanding their music vocabulary. Many music classrooms are supplied with adequate record libraries, but information regarding characteristics of the pieces is based on a teacher's knowledge and experience with a piece as a teaching tool, which often goes unrecorded; otherwise, the teacher must rely on information buried within a teacher's edition or record liner notes in planning listening lessons or tests. Using as a reference point the listening portion of an elementary music curriculum, a typical record library was examined to catalog the material within. A data base file was completed to organize these excellent resources in a manner which allowed for retrieval in a variety of user-selected formats. Such a system enables the teacher to make better use of recorded music and consequently be a more creative teacher. The Stevens Point Area School District Vocal Music Curriculum includes several large divisions, one of which is "listening." Within this portion are fourteen music concepts that are to be taught at the elementary level. Each concept is described in outline form. (See Appendix I). This curriculum served as the foundation for the project. | en_US |
