Arts integration is a key way to motivate our students and get them connecting to their world again. Children aren't cogs - it's our job to help them think outside of the box, not stay in it!

I can only hope we make meaningful connections and reflect as much as they were. Thanks for the post. I spent some time last week in a classroom listening to students discuss the poem mentioned here.

I think the coming change is inevitable. Especially as a new generation of learners and teachers demand that material/information be presented in formats that they are accustom. The music education profession is doomed to extinction if it does not recognize this trend and act on it accordingly. great thoughts – I enjoy your posts…. a paradigm shift will never come from within academia (if it does, it will have taken far too long – as you know almost everything changes so slowly in academia…and music may be the worst offender of all disciplines!)
