Instrumental Music Education: Teaching with the Theoretical and Practical in Harmony, Fourth Edition, is intended for college instrumental music education majors studying to be band and orchestra directors at the elementary, middle school, and high school levels. Its fundamental goal is to prepare music teachers for the real world, looking at the topics vital to running a successful instrumental music program, while balancing musical, theoretical, and practical approaches. A central theme is the compelling parallel between language and music, including "sound-to-symbol" pedagogies. Understanding this connection improves the teaching of melody, rhythm, composition, and improvisation. Unique to this book is its research-based approach; its overview of a variety of educational sites is more extensive than any similar resource. Its accompanying Instructor and Student Resources include over 120 videos filmed with high school, college, and community concert, pedagogy videos for all wind and string instruments, presented by professional players and teachers. New to this edition: A section on social emotional learning (SEL) An introduction to culturally responsive teaching Additional discussion of teaching composition, improvisation, and creativity Expanded discussion of the advantages, challenges, and philosophies surrounding teaching ensembles other than band and orchestra Many updates and additions throughout the text Offering best practices rooted in experience and clear, balanced coverage of pedagogical, philosophical, and administrative issues, this textbook effectively prepares future band and orchestra instructors to teach at all levels.

In the music classroom, instructors who hope to receive aid are required to provide data on their classroom programs. Due to the lack of reliable, valid large-scale assessments of student achievement in music, however, music educators in schools that accept funds face a considerable challenge in finding a way to measure student learning in their classrooms. From Australia to Taiwan to the Netherlands, music teachers experience similar struggles in the quest for a definitive assessment resource that can be used by both music educators and researchers. In this two-volume Handbook, contributors from across the globe come together to provide an authority on the assessment, measurement, and evaluation of student learning in music. The Handbook's first volume emphasizes international and theoretical perspectives on music education assessment in the major world regions. This volume also looks at technical aspects of measurement in music, and outlines situations where theoretical foundations can be applied to the development of tests in music. The Handbook's second volume offers a series of practical and US-focused approaches to music education assessment. Chapters address assessment in different types of US classrooms; how to assess specific skills or requirements; and how assessment can be used in tertiary and music teacher education classrooms. Together, both volumes of The Oxford Handbook of Assessment in Music Education pave the way forward for music educators and researchers in the field.
