BlEDbbOIBHTMBTS An Abstract of a Dissertation SOME OF OUR CHILDREN MAY LIVE: A Study of Students in Alternative and Innovative Schools Leonard J« Solo, Sr. Directed by: Dr. Glenn Hawkes Submitted to the School of Education University of Massachusetts in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF EDUCATION 1971 ABSTRACT A basic assumption and starting point for this study is the belief that there is a "crisis in the olassroom," that "our children are dying" in most schools,, The purpose of this study is not to again prove this point, but to examine schools where, reportedly, there is no crisis, where children learn joyfully in a humane environment 0 The study was done with a ten-point questionnaire that was sent to 500 private and 150 public schools. One hundred and twenty-five private and 37 public schools responded to the questionnaire. A catagory system was Imposed on each question when patterns were discovered in the responses and information from each question was placed in the established catagories for each school. Then a frequency count was made in each catagory and cross- correlations were done, finally, from analyzing and interpreting the responses and the catagorlzed and correlated data, general types of alternative and Innovative schools were defined. On the basis of these analysis and interpretations, the following types of schools were established* (1) Alternative Public School (2) Modular-Flexible School (3) Integrated Day School (4) Montessorl School (5) Free School (6) School for "Disturbed" Children (7) School for a Minority Group. A profile of each of the above types of schools was made from the nature of their responses to each questions (1) 2 The Alternative Public Schools (a) have small enrollments (b) do not have students Involved in formulating the schools' basic philosophy c) have been in existence only 2 or 3 years d) have heterogeneous populations e) have compulsory classes ! f) have a fairly wide choice of courses or subjects for students to choose from (s) have students rather significantly involved in the decision-making processes (h) evaluate students individually, in terms of the student' 8 own growth (l) realize the need for community and have moved somewhat in that direction by stressing sharing, cooperation, responsibility and* trust* The Modular-Flexible Schools (a) have large enrollments (b) have been in existence about 5 or 6 years (c) do not have students Involved in determining the schools' philosophy (d) serve mostly middle class students (e) have compulsory classes (f) have moved only somewhat away from traditional course offerings (s) do not have students significantly Involved in planning and regulating the schools' activities (h) evaluate students in groups with tests and grades (i) have not Involved themselves in striving for community. The Integrated Day Schools la) have small numbers of students (b) have been in existence only 2 or 3 years (c) do not have students substantially involved in determining the schools' philosophy (d) Involve middle class students (because of their tuitions) (e) do not have "classes" If; are set up with Interest areas wherein the student can pursue his own interests at his own pace (6) have students somewhat involved in the decision- making processes, especially the curricular ones (h) evaluate students Individually (i; are striving for cooperation, sharing and a sense of belonging together. The Montes sori Schools are similar to the Integrated Day — 3 schools except that they tend to be more manipulative and more discipline oriented. They also stress cognitive learning to a greater degree. The Free Schools in this study were found to be the most innovative and most radical: They (a) have very small numbers of students (b) have heterogeneous student bodies, in spite of having tuitions (c) have been in existence only 1 or 2 years (d) have their students somewhat involved in determining the schools' philosophy (e) do not have classes (f) emphasize the needs of individual students and thus have a variety of ways for students to learn interest areas, tutorials, contracts, small and large groups, individuals doing/learning what they want, etc. (g>v allow the student to pursue his own needs/wants at his own rate (h) have students rather significantly (some totally) Involved in the decision-making processes (i) evaluate students individually or do not evaluate them at all (j) have achieved a sense of belonging, togetherness, sharing, trust— community. The Schools for "Disturbed" Children (a) have small enrollments (b) have high tuitions (c) have students only minimally involved in formulating the schools' philosophy (d) have students who are "disturbed" and drop-out, alienated youths (e) do not have classes but deal individually with children (f) have a wide variety of learning situations available for students to choose from (g) have students substantially involved in the decision- making processes (h) evaluate students Individually (l) have achieved a sense of togetherness and belonging The Schools for Minority Groups (a) have small enrollments (b) low tuitions (c) do not have students Involved in formulating the school's philosophy (d) have students from various minority groups—Elack, Mexlcan-Amerioan, Ame r iean Indians, etc.—who are poor and also school drop-outs 4 (e) have compulsory classes (f) do not have a variety of course offerings '8/ do not have students Involved a great deal in the decision-making processes (h) evaluate students individually (i) realize the need for community, but have only achieved it in a limited way#- • The study tended to show that these schools espouse the needs and rights of the individual and that many of the schools are, or are becoming, student-centered. The modular-flexible schools started this trend, but they have moved the least in this direction# Alternative Public Schools have become more student-centered, but far less than the private Montessorl and Integrated Day schools. The Free Schools have moved the most in this direction# The main focus in many free schools is not just on learning subjects but on people learning and growing, alone and together, on personal relationships, on trust and honesty and dignity and sharing# Some of these free schools are evolving into non-schools or communes# The whole trend examined in this paper indicates a movement toward "deschooling” —of having learning naturally and constantly occuring in the entire community with people of all ages involved with the on-going processes of living in that community# This movement has not yet profoundly affected the lives of most children, but it is a just-beginning trend that is already providing several thousand students with a variety of alternative ways to grow up# The movement seems to be toward having a great variety of alternative starting and on-going places for learning (not just "school 1 ’), a world (or parts of it) in which children could naturally learn as they grew in it.

This coercion -had such a deterring effect that, after I had passed the final examination, I found the consideration of any scientific problem distaste- ful to me for an entire year It is, in fact, nothing snort of a miracle that the modern methods of Instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry . ^.or this delicate little plant, aside from stimu- lation, stands mainly in need of freedom: without this it goes lo wract£ and ruin without fail. It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty, lo tne contrary, I believe that it would be possible to rob even a healthy beast of prey of its voraciousness, if it were possible, with the aid of a whip, to force the beast to devour continuously, even when not hungry- especially if the food, handed out under such coercion, were to be selected accordingly.

Juni 2013, 22.00 - 24.00 Uhr (Zweitsendung) Geboren am 9.Juni 1943 in Philadelphia, genoss Barron eine klassische Klavier-Ausbildung und spielte zunächst in der gleichen Band wie sein älterer Bruder, der Saxophonist Bill Baron (1927-1989). Nach seinem Umzug nach New York etablierte sich Kenny Barron Anfang der 1960er Jahre als hochbegehrter Sideman in der Szene. Durch James Moody kam er in Kontakt mit Dizzy Gillespie, in dessen Band er für 3 Jahre spielte. Aus der fast unüberschaubaren Auswahl an Aufnahmen mit Kenny Barron stechen die Duos mit Stan Getz hervor, die kurz vor dem Tod des grossen Tenorsaxophonisten in Kopenhagen entstanden. Mit dem Quartett «Sphere» widmete sich Barron seit 1982 zudem lange Zeit intensiv dem Erbe des Bebop-Komponisten Thelonious Monk. Der Pianist und Barron-Kenner Stewy von Wattenwyl, zu Gast in Jazz Collection, hat Kenny Barron wiederholt getroffen und gesprochen..

  • ARTS615 Instructor: Noah Baerman Thelonious Monk and Charles Mingus: the Cutting Edge of Jazz [email protected]
    ARTS615 Instructor: Noah Baerman Thelonious Monk and Charles Mingus: The Cutting Edge of Jazz [email protected] SYLLABUS Overview Pianist Thelonious Monk (1917-1982) and bassist Charles Mingus (1922-1979) defined the cutting edge in jazz in the aftermath of the bebop movement in the 1940s. Both men had unique styles as players and both eventually became even better known for their composing and, in some circles, their personalities. Both created music that was influential yet controversial, being embraced heartily by some and rejected by others, before eventually being accepted into the jazz mainstream. Ultimately, their music and careers evolved quite differently. In this course we will examine both musicians in depth. We will study their lives, their unusual personalities and, most of all, their music. We will explore the full trajectory of each man’s career and development, learning about the elements that made up their styles as players, composers and bandleaders at different stages along the way. Along the way we will touch on the music of numerous other jazz legends with whom their paths crossed, such as Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach, John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins and Miles Davis. We will also put the contributions of Monk and Mingus into the broader context of jazz history, including an examination of how contemporary jazz has assimilated their innovations. Sound recordings will be the primary source material for this course, with some video footage. At-home studies will revolve most substantially around the study of recording available online through Spotify (more information later in syllabus). As textbooks we will use Mingus: A Critical Biography by Brian Priestley and Thelonious Monk: The Life and Times of an American Original by Robin Kelley.

  • Thelonious Monk Timeline
    Thelonious Monk Timeline 1917. Thelonious Monk was born on October 10, 1917 in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. His badly written birth certificate misspelled his first name as "Thelious" or "Thelius". It also did not list his middle name, taken from his maternal grandfather, Sphere Batts. 1921. When he was just four, his parents, Barbara and Thelonious, Sr., moved to 2 43 West 63rd Street, in Manhattan, New York City, where he would spend the next five decades of his life. 1928. Monk began studying classical piano when he was eleven but had already shown some aptitude for the instrument. "I learned how to read before I took lessons," he later recalled. "You know, watching my sister practice her lessons over her shoulder." 1930. By the time Monk was thirteen, he had won the weekly amateur competition at the Apollo Theater so many times that the management banned him from re­entering the contest. 1934. At age seventeen, Monk dropped out of the esteemed Stuyvesant High School to pursue his music career. He toured with the so­called "Texas Warhorse," an evangelist and faith healer, before assembling a quartet of his own. Although it was typical to play for a big band at this time, Monk preferred a more intimate work dynamic that would allow him to experiment with his sound. 1941. At age twenty four, Monk began working at Minton's Playhouse in Harlem, where he joined the house band and helped develop the school of jazz known as bebop. Alongside Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, he explored the fast, jarring, and often improvised styles that would later become synonymous with modern jazz.
