Download The Effects of Music on Basic Mathematics Fact Fluency for Third Grade Students Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Gaps in achievement test scores continue to exist in students depending upon race, gender, income, and ethnicity according to the Center on Education Policy (CEP), an advocate for public schools. School districts and schools are struggling to close the achievement gap that exists. In the 2010-2011 school years, 34.4% of African American students in the third grade failed to pass the Georgia Criterion-Referenced Competency Test (CRCT) in the research school. The participants in this study were enrolled in a Title I elementary school located in south east Georgia. The school system was comprised of one comprehensive high school (grades 9 through 12), one middle school (grades 4 through 8), two elementary schools, and one alternative school. The school district served approximately 1,689 students with 144 employees. Mathematics-related music did not have a significant effect on basic mathematics fact fluency. GRASP Mathematic Computational Fluency pre and posttest results were used to determine if there was academic growth for the treatment group when compared to the control group. According to the results from the study, mathematics-related music was not a valid intervention. The students in Group B who participated in the intervention did not make significant gains when comparing their pre (M = 21.95, SD = 7.62) and posttest (M = 23.89, SD = 8.23) scores to the control groups pre (M = 18.84, SD = 8.96) and posttest (M = 20.53, SD = 8.62) scores. Fourteen students in Group B only slightly improved their achievement scores while three students' scores decreased, and two students' scores stayed the same. In Group A, 15 students increased their achievement scores, while three students' scores decreased, and one student's score remained the same. To determine the effect size of mathematics-related music on students' basic mathematic fluency scores, Cohen's d calculations indicated the intervention had a medium effect (d = 0.41) on Mathematic Computational Fluency scores. An average student in the treatment group would be expected to outscore about 66% of the students in the control group. Mathematics-related music increased scores approximately 16%. The following are appended: (1) GRASP: 3rd Grade Computational Fluency Screener; (2) Third Grade Student Survey; and (3) Student Engagement Walkthrough Checklist.

Download A Study of the Relationship Between Instrumental Music Education and Critical Thinking in 8th- and 11th-Grade Students Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The purpose of this study was to explore the possible relationship between instrumental music education in Grades 8 and 11 and critical thinking as assessed by the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment. The subsets that were examined included Reading (B): Interpretation and Analysis of Fictional and Nonfictional Text, which assesses the academic standards 1.1, Learning to read independently; standard 1.2, Reading critically in all content areas; standard 1.3, Reading, analyzing and interpreting literature, and Mathematics, sections C.1 Geometry- Analyze characteristics of two and three dimensional shapes, D.2 Algebraic concepts- Analyze mathematical situations using numbers, symbols, words, tables and/or graphs, and E.1 Data analysis and probability- Interpret and analyze data by formulating answers or questions (Pennsylvania Department of Education, 2009-2010). The sample consisted of Instrumental students (N = 50) and Noninstrumental music students (N = 50) over 2 graduated high school classes. The results indicated that the Instrumental music sample consistently outscored the Noninstrumental music sample when comparing the Reading B, Mathematics M.C.1, M.D.2, and M.E.1 subsections of the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment with significant increases noted from 8th to 11th grade.

Download The Effect of Music Instruction on Math and Language Arts Scores in Elementary School Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The purpose of this study is to determine if music and academic achievement are connected to form a more cohesive unit of learning. This project attempts to show how participation in a music program in school will not only help children explore new academic experiences but will also help in their academic achievment through improvement in test scores in mathematics and languages.

Download The Effect of Music on the Test Scores of the Students in Limits and Derivatives Subject in the Mathematics Exams Done with Music Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In the exams based on limits and derivatives, in this study, it was tried to determine that if there was any difference in students' test scores according to the type of music listened to and environment without music. For this purpose, the achievement test including limits and derivatives and whose reliability coefficient of Cronbach Alpha is 0.83 was applied with the environments in which different types of music were listened, to 98 students studying at Primary Mathematics Teaching Department in Buca Faculty of Education in Dokuz Eylul University. As a result, it was observed that both male and female students' test scores form the exam based on limits and derivatives compared to the environment without music; besides, the increase in average number of correct answers of female students was higher than the male students'. (Contains 4 tables.).

Download Music Participation and Achievement Scores Among Middle School Students with Disabilities Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This quantitative, causal-comparative study examined the differences in reading and math achievement between students with disabilities who participated in music for two or more years and those who did not. This study’s purpose was to show if participating in music can impact the academic achievement of middle school students as measured by the State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness (STAAR). The covariate in the study was the reading and math STAAR scores from fifth-grade students in the 2015–2016 school year before they participated in middle school music. These students’ eighth-grade 2018–2019 math and reading scores were used to show if a difference exists between the academic achievement of students that took part in music and those who did not. A convenience sample of 155 students from an urban district was analyzed using ANCOVA statistical analysis to discover if there is a difference in the achievement of middle school students with disabilities when participating in music classes for two or more years as measured by their STAAR scores. The research found no statistically significant difference between the two groups. Future recommendations for research include duplication of the study with a larger sample or different population.
