Resources for Music Educators: Measuring Achievement in Singing
Marshall, Herbert D.
General Music Today, v17 n2 p52 Win 2004
This article provides some research-based tools to describe and evaluate vocal development of the young singer. It offers resources and literature reviews relating to teachers' understanding of their learners as individuals and measurement of their learners' musical achievement. It focuses on one thing all music teachers strive to do: evaluate young singers' use of their singing voices, ability to maintain a sense of tonal center while singing, and pitch accuracy. This article's analysis aims to provide a resource for teachers to use to craft engaging and active methods to measure music learning that will benefit the children and improve instruction.
