Music Quote
Music is a moral law. It gives soul to
the universe, wings to the mind,
flight to the imagination, and
charm and gaiety to life and to
everything.
Plato
Art Quote
An arts education helps build academic
skills and increase academic
performance, while also providing
alternative opportunities to reward the
skills of children who learn differently.
Gavin Newsom

Peppler. 2010
Quote by Peppler
“as educators are struggling to keep up
with changing demands of this new
digital era, new literacy theorists argue
that our very definition of literacy is
expanding to include any type of
communicative interaction involving
speaking, reading, listening, drawing, and
writing with text in print and non-print
forms.”
National Standards for Art Education
When describing issues, the standards insist on
the following:
That the transforming power of technology is
a force not only in the economy but in the arts
as well. The arts teach relationships between
the use of essential technical means and the
achievement of desired ends. The intellectual
methods of the arts are precisely those used to
transform scientific discovery into technology.
Issues/Problems in Music Instruction
Redefining Music Literacy
Students who are discouraged by a
requirement to learn notation-based theory
can now participate in the school music
program as both composers and performers
with little, if any, ability to read music.
Training Teachers to Meet Music Standards
Teacher preparation programs will have a
difficult time making a case for including
required technology courses in their curricula.
Issues/Problems in Music Instruction
Downloading of Music Illegally
Less students are downloading music at all,
now they can listen online for free (Pandora)
The Intersection of Popular Music, Technology,
and Music Instruction
For different lesson, teachers need to have
extensive knowledge of desktop music
productions and live sound reinforcementalso needs to be familiar with culture and
traditions of the type of music.
Issues/Problems in Music Instruction
The Music director as Small Business
Administrator
Music directors are always on the lookout for
continuing or increased funding- to better
improve their program.
Issues/Problems in Art Instruction
Funding for Art Instruction
Funding is at an all-time low, even teachers and
administration are having to limit how much
paper, ink, and copies are made.
Ethical Issues Associated with the use of Images
and Other Materials
With taking images from the Internet, students
need to be educated on citing everything they
use, whether it be text, images, or sounds.
Issues/Problems in Art Instruction
Accessing Images Used in Art Instruction
Schools filter so much online, and with doing so
not only hide the bad pictures, but is also likely to
take away many great unknown works of art.
Issues/Problems in Art Instruction
