I am opinionated, but I do not like to argue. It's a complete waste of energy to me. However, for part of my Concepts of Music Ed grad class, I have to develop a position paper on an Action Ideal set forth by the Mayday Group. My A.I. is 7a.
Action Ideal #7 says
An extensive and intensive consideration of curriculum for music education is needed as a foundation to greater professional unity and must be guided by a sound philosophical process.
a. What philosophical, curricular, psychological, and social principles and criteria should guide curriculum development, evaluation and criticism?
Let me say that I chose one of the easier A.I.'s - I thought.
So I am researching.....trying to find some information that will lead me to a position paper that has an argument and counterargument. Not only do I have to argue it, I have to argue BOTH sides!!?!?!?
I am finding some information - some of it is quite archaic. The argument/counterargument is developing into traditional vs. contemporary perspectives in music education. I guess any topic has the old v. new argument.
