education books
Does anyone know any good books that can talk about the issue of music education affects children’s education?

I need help with a paper that I’m writing about on how music education affects children. Any good books and/or websites I could site would be great.

This is my thesis:
During childhood, children who are more involve in music develop work ethic, explore in depth meaning and establish their academic skills. We need to protect and develop the arts in school for the education of children.

Thanks for helping me.

Here’s a book I picked up recently. What I like most about it is that it has sources from Ancient Greece to today. It’s a collection of writings, and I’m sure there is a chapter or two you can use out of it.

They Might Be Giants are like the handful of best-selling authors who also happen to be doctors or astrophysicists: They do two things so well–in their case kids’ music and grown-up music–that it seems a little unfair, like the talent scale has been tipped too hard in their favor. Like Here Come the 123s, the follow-up to 2005’s Here Come the ABCs, and TMBG’s third kids’ record. Here the Johns–…

The Book of Books


The Book of Books


$11.81


The King James Bible has often been called the Book of Books both in itself and in what it stands for. Since its publication in 1611 it has been the best selling book in the world, and many believe, had the greatest impact.The King James Bible has spread the Protestant faith. It has also been the greatest influence on the enrichment of the English language and its literature. It has been the Bible of wars from the British Civil War in the seventeenth century to the American Civil War two centuries later and it has been carried into battle in innumerable conflicts since then. Its influence on social movements – particularly involving women in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries – and politics was profound. It was crucial to the growth of democracy. It was integral to the abolition of slavery and it defined attitudes to modern science, education and sex.As THE ADVENTURE OF ENGLISH explored the history of our language, so THE BOOK OF BOOKS reveals the extraordinary and still-felt impact of a work created 400 years ago.

Changing Education


Changing Education


$189


This book responds to the growing unease of educators and non-educators alike about the inadequacy of most current educational systems and programs to meet sufficiently the demands of fast changing societies. These systems and programs evolved and were developed in and for societies that have long been transformed, and yet no parallel transformation has taken place in the education systems they spawned. In the last twenty years or so, other sectors of society, such as transportation and communications systems, have radically changed the way they operate, but education has remained essentially the same. There is no doubt: education needs to change. To those ready to accept this challenge, this book represents a welcome guide. Unlike most books on educational policy, this volume does not focus on improving existing educational systems but on changing them altogether. Its focus is not on doing things better, but on doing better things; not on doing things right, but on doing the right things to prepare students for a fast changing interdependent world.
