  • Radio-Electronics in Education
    RADIO ELECTRONICS Published by Department of Information RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA 30 ROCKEFELLER PLAZA, NEW YORK, N. Y. FOREWORD 1 1 is booklet presents briefly the various types of aid which radio, both as a science and as a system of communication, renders to the cause of education. DI Education is as old as civilization itself; radio is one of civili- zation's newest products. It is therefore too early to appraise the ultimate extent or influence of their relationship. Enough has already been accomplished, however, both in the field of broadcasting and in the use of new educational techniques made possible by radio research, to prove that the importance of radio in the educational field is profound and far-reaching. New developments in radio and electronics, such as televi- sion and the electron microscope, are of the utmost significance to the future of education. It may be argued that the future of education is of slight interest when civilization is locked in a life-and-death struggle with forces which seek to destroy it. On the contrary, I believe it is a subject of major importance at this time. For the civilization of free men and women will triumph in this war, and the vital need for wise, courageous leadership will be more insistent in the post-war generation than ever before in historv. The education of both adults and children — and of the many, not the few — will stronglv influence the choice of poli- cies and of leaders capable of establishing and maintaining a better world for all humanity.

  • Influência De Jerome Bruner Na Teoria Da Aprendizagem Musical De Edwin Gordon
    INFLUÊNCIA DE JEROME BRUNER NA TEORIA DA APRENDIZAGEM MUSICAL DE EDWIN GORDON Ricardo Dourado Freire [email protected] Departamento de Música da Universidade de Brasília Verônica Gomes Archanjo de Oliveira Silva [email protected] Resumo Neste artigo é realizadas uma análise teórica dos Níveis e Subníveis de Competências musicais estabelecidos por Edwin Gordon (1997) a partir dos fundamentos teóricos para elaboração de teorias de aprendizagem propostos por Jerome Bruner (1965). A compreen- são das idéias de Bruner serve para elucidar aspectos estruturais da Teoria da Aprendiza- gem Musical de Gordon e permite o esclarecimento de procedimentos e propostas de Gor- don dentro da perspectiva da psicologia cognitiva. Palavras-chave : Aprendizagem Musical, Jerome Bruner, Edwin Gordon. O pesquisador estadunidense Edwin Gordon desenvolveu nos últimos 50 anos uma extensa obra nas áreas de psicologia da música e educação musical. Sua trajetória acadê- mica passa pelo doutoramento na University of Iowa (1958), atuação como docente na University of Iowa, 1958-1973, na State University of New York at Buffalo (SUNY- Buf- falo), 1973-1979, até sua permanência na Carl Seashore Chair for Research in Music Edu- cation da Temple University entre 1979 e sua aposentadoria em 1997. Durante sua trajetó- ria acadêmica publicou 94 livros, com traduções em português, italiano e lituano, além de ter orientado aproximadamente 40 dissertações de doutorado. Sua carreira como pesquisa- dor nas áreas de psicologia da música e educação musical influenciaram toda uma corrente de pesquisa na linha de música. Nesta abordagem, os processos cognitivo-musicais são observados a partir de uma estrutura seqüencial de desenvolvimento que aplica à área de música a proposta teórica de Jerome Bruner publicada em Toward a Theory of Instruction (1965) Nos primeiros anos de pesquisas na Univeristy of Iowa, Gordon inicia um profundo estudo sobre a aptidão musical e os processos que influenciam o desenvolvimento musical do indivíduo baseado nos trabalhos de Seashore e Drake.

Devonis, PhD, received his doctorate in the history of psychology from the University of New Hampshire’s erstwhile pro- gram in that subject in 1989 with a thesis on the history of conscious pleasure in modern American psychology. Since then he has taught vir- tually every course in the psychology curriculum in his academic odys- sey from the University of Redlands in Redlands, California, and the now-closed Teikyo Marycrest University (formerly Marycrest College in Davenport, Iowa) to—for the past 17 years—Graceland University in Lamoni, Iowa, alma mater of Bruce Jenner and, more famously for the history of psychology, of Noble H. Kelly (1901–1997), eminent con- tributor to psychology’s infrastructure through his many years of ser- vice to the American Board of Examiners in Professional Psychology. Dr. Devonis has been a member of Cheiron: The International Society for the History of Behavioral and Social Sciences since 1990, a con- tributor to many of its activities, and its treasurer for the past 10 years. Currently he is on the editorial board of the American Psychological Association journal History of Psychology and is, with Wade Pickren, coeditor and compiler of the online bibliography History of Psychology in the Oxford Bibliographies Online series.

  • On Early Applications of Psychology in Music Education
    JRME 1982, VOLUME 30, NUMBER 3, PAGES 141-150 141 GranvilleStanley Hall, founder of the AmericanPsychological Association and president of Clark University,was thefirst Americanpsychologist to speak and write about music's place in the educational curriculum. An examination of his published writings reveals Hall based his theoryof music education on principles of Social Darwinism and Child Study perspectiveson education. Hall's theories are referenced and paraphrased in several song series textbooksand music appreciationtexts published by music educators during his professionalcareer. Thesesources indicate that Hall influencedthe thinkingof certainmusic educatorsand was importantto music education,in general, in developing a receptivitytoward psychological processes in music educationpractice. R. R. Rideout, Universityof Oklahoma On Early Applications of Psychology in Music Education Granville Stanley Hall (1842-1924) received the first doctoral degree in psychology in the United States (from Harvard, in 1878). After a two- year sojourn to Europe, where he studied the educational system of Germany, Hall returned to America where, in 1881, he was hired by Charles Elliott, president of Harvard University, to deliver a series of lectures on the state of education in Germany. He gave these lectures for teachers in the Boston environs (Ross, 1974, p. 133). In 1882, upon a recommendation from his former professor, William James, Hall was appointed professor of psychology at Johns Hopkins University. Among his students were John Dewey and James McKeen Cattel, both of whom became noted leaders in education in the first half of the twentieth century (Wilson, 1914). In 1888, because Jonas Clark was impressed with Hall's personality and work at Johns Hopkins, Hall became the first president of the university Clark was founding on the Johns Hopkins model (Ross, 1974, pp.

  • Psychologists and Physicians in the Borderlands of Science, 1900-1942
    PSYCHOLOGISTS AND PHYSICIANS IN THE BORDERLANDS OF SCIENCE, 1900-1942 By WADE EDWARD PICKREN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1995 For my mother: WILLIE MERLE PICKREN, and in memoriam, BILL PICKREN, You taught me to love and work. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my deepest gratitude to the chairman of my dissertation committee, Donald A. Dewsbury. Dr. Dewsbury has, from the beginning of this long project, been a model of encouragement, kindness, and unfailing generosity. He has shared his time, his great breadth of learning, his editorial ability, and his materials with me. My understanding of the history of psychology has been greatly deepened by our conversations. I also wish to acknowledge that Dr. Dewsbury has helped me to understand that data is a plural! Dr. Wilse B. Webb has also stimulated much thought in me about what I was doing and where I was going with my ideas. Although I did not avail myself of his wisdom as oft as I would have liked, his voice and his sharp eye were always with me. I hope that, in the future, time will allow me a greater opportunity to benefit from his great knowledge and experience. Both near at hand and from afar, Dr. Toby Appel has blessed me with the keenness of her insight . Her acceptance and friendly corrections of my halting efforts to write history have been much appreciated. One of my most pleasant memories of this experience is that of sitting at a table at iii Cafe Gardens talking about the history of biology or psychology, while hoping to hear some Van Morrison on the house music system.
