A Survey Of Music Education In The Smaller High Schools Of California And A Program Of Music Courses, Carol C. Carter

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

It was the author's privilege to begin teaching in a small secondary school. There, it is his firm belief, is the place for most beginning teachers to commence their life's work.

It is obvious that in such an extensive survey as this, it is necessary that the factors involved be limited to certain particular phases of the problem. For this reason and since the greatest outward appearance of advance in the band movement has been made in the past decade in Western Kansas the present survey will present the situation as found …

An Evaluation Of Tests Of Musical Talent, Herbert Clark Levan

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The problem consists of an evaluation of tests of musical ability to discover which tests are most reliable and useful for elementary school purposes.

For further evidence, four selected batteries of comparatively new tests were given to over one thousand children in grades two to six in the schools of Parsons, Kansas. …
