Art, Music, and the Brain: Arts and Education in American Public Schools
Показать описание
Kenneth Elpus, assistant professor of music education at the University of Maryland, discusses his experience as a music teacher and the fragmentation of art education in public schools.
These programs are as fundamental to building confidence, a sense of teamwork and self discipline as the varsity football team, as the cheerleading squad or JV basketball. The arts represents a different venue, to accomplish the same lauditory goals, for a different demographic in our schools as the latter. The same is true of the science fair, the debate or chess teams. We need to support all of our kids.
