A Comparison Of Sight-Reading Methods For Instrumental Ensembles With The Consideration Of Engagement, Nicholas A. Luchterhand
A Comparison Of Sight-Reading Methods For Instrumental Ensembles With The Consideration Of Engagement, Nicholas A. Luchterhand
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Despite the fact that nearly all band programs competing in festivals are evaluated on sight-reading ability, minimal research exists regarding specific pedagogical sight-reading methods and their effectiveness. Traditionally, music educators have used scales, rhythm books, method books, and technical exercises as warm-ups in order to improve overall music reading skills. Employing these methods is also known as the Music Fundamentals Approach. However, researchers have challenged this as the best method for development. To evaluate potential advantages among different approaches, a quantitative study will compare success rates of three sight-reading acquisition methods across separate high school band classes: one employing a …

The Opening Of The American Mind: The Christian Educator's Involvement In Public Education, Brett Austin Craddock
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Two kingdoms theology has impacted the church and guided individual believers in various aspects of their personal lives.

The Effects Of Seesaw On "John Kanaka" Singing Assessment Tracking And Teacher-To-Student Feedback In The Third Grade Elementary Music Classroom, Sarah Elizabeth Gonzalez
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Assessments play a vital role for teachers to measure individual student progress and motivate instruction that meets students' needs. Traditional assessments provide a substantive way for teachers to collect data, which they will analyze long after they administer the assessment. Creating substantial evidence for individual performance-based standards poses a challenge. Seesaw serves as an online platform for student engagement, allowing students to share their knowledge while parents can safely monitor it through photos, videos, drawings, text, audio, PDFs, and links. The researchers conducted the study over four weeks in March 2025 in the third-grade music classes at Ray Roberts Elementary. …

A Comparison Of Middle To High School Male Retention Rates In Tenor-Bass Choirs And Mixed Choirs In Georgia, Victor Alexander Ubiera
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Documentation quantitatively measuring the effect of tenor-bass ensembles in the recruitment and retention of male singers is limited within the literature. Without data, choral music educators may lack the evidence to justify adjusting their choral program offerings to include all-male ensembles. This quantitative, causal-comparative study compares eighth to ninth grade male student retention between schools in the state of Georgia that offer the all-male or tenor-bass model and those that do not. This study investigates the correlation between the number of male students who continue choral enrollment between eighth and ninth grades and their prior participation in middle school tenor-bass …

Exploring The Impact Of Combat Trauma And Ptsd On Student Veterans In Postsecondary Education And The Mediating Roles Of Positive Spiritual/Religious Coping And Social Support, Mirjana Jovicic
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Student veterans with combat trauma (CT) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) face significant challenges in postsecondary education, impacting their retention and degree completion. Despite efforts by institutions to accommodate student veterans, gaps remain in understanding the factors that influence their educational success. This study was grounded in constructivist self-development theory, examining the relationship between student veterans with CT/PTSD (X) and postsecondary satisfaction (Y) through two mediators: positive spiritual/religious coping (PSRC; M1) and social support (SS; M2). Using a quantitative, cross-sectional, descriptive correlational design, this study employed Hayes's PROCESS Model 6 to analyze both X's direct and indirect effects on Y. …
