They also introduce some of the details of the blueprint – how to keep teachers in the driver’s seat, how to involve cultural contributors, and their project timelines –and discuss the need for the blueprint to reflect the common repertoire shared between schools, educators, and their partners in the cultural world. http://www.artistshousemusic.org/node/48241#comment Music Education Teaching Advocacy Collaboration Loyola University New Orleans Music Education Nancy Shankman Teaching Thomas Cabaniss Sat, 08 Nov 2008 11:15:33 -0800 stevensstokes 48241 at http://www.artistshousemusic.org/videos/music+education+workshop+part+3+building+a+music+curriculum+for+new+york+city+s+public+schools+introduction Music Education Workshop, Part 3: Building a Music Curriculum for New York City’s Public Schools – IntroductionIn this segment of a music education workshop held in 2008 at Loyola University, New Orleans, presenters Thomas Cabaniss and Nancy Shankman introduce the challenges and educational priorities behind the blueprint they created for overhauling music education in New York City’s public schools. http://www.artistshousemusic.org/videos/music+education+workshop+part+3+building+a+music+curriculum+for+new+york+city+s+public+schools+introduction#comment Loyola University New Orleans Nancy Shankman Thomas Cabaniss Fri, 07 Nov 2008 19:35:43 -0800 stevensstokes 48132 at
