Music and Progressive Education.
Zinar, Ruth
Music Educators Journal, v70 n5 p33-34 Jan 1984
John Dewey believed that man can only learn about the world through experience. He included music as part of his "core curriculum," in which children learned by doing. This progressive education emphasized self-expression and individual fulfillment, but did not mean the abandonment of knowledge and techniques in teaching music. (CS)
