Educational Qualifications And Personality Characteristics Of The Grade Teacher Who Teaches Music, Harriett J. Wright

Graduate Thesis Collection

The purpose of this thesis on the educational qualifications and the personality characteristics of the grade teacher is to ascertain whether or not the teacher is given adequate preparation for teaching music in her classroom.  The research seems to indicate that comparatively little music training is given students preparing to teach in elementary grades.  It is the author's desire that this thesis will bring to the attention of those in charge of teacher training curricula, the need for additional work in the field of music.

Music As A Satisfying Expression To Pupils Slow In Academic Work, Alma P. Bolen

Graduate Thesis Collection

That music is a powerful, contributing agent in the development of a well-integrated, stable personality is a conviction which has been uppermost in my mind.  With keen interest, I have followed the musical activities of my former pupils who are now in Crispus Attucks High School.  It became apparent to me that many pupils whom I expected to enroll in a music class, failed to do so.
