6
21 st Century Skills Overview
8
Interwoven 21 st Century Skills Inventive Thinking High Order Thinking Skills Creativity Literacy Fundamental to Informed Technological Work Skills Communication Problem-Solving Interpersonal
9
Foundational Skills: Work KEYS Communication – Business Writing; Listening; Reading for Information; Writing. Problem Solving – Applied Technology, Applied Mathematics, Locating information, Workplace Observation Interpersonal – Teamwork
10
Reading for Information Skills to read and use written text in order to do a job. Examples: memos, letters, directions, signs, notices, bulletins, policies, and regulations. Not necessarily well-written or targeted to the appropriate audience Does not include graphics
11
Reading Skills in Music Overall structural elements (global) Textual elements – Sections – Phrases – Vocabulary – Example: Sing Unto God
12
Applied Mathematics This assessment measures the skill people use when they apply mathematical reasoning, critical thinking, and problem-solving techniques to work-related problems. Music applications— – Measurement in music (time, pitch, intensity) – Analysis skills
13
Business Writing Neutral to formal writing: Examples Program notes Critiques “Technical writing”—descriptive writing NOT--- “txtng” Error detection and editing for correctness
14
Writing Audiotaped messages that are: Rewritten exactly (aural dictation) Summarized (form and analysis) Other examples Marking music Rehearsal notes
15
Writing Suggested writing: Critiques Advocacy pieces Historical summaries Biographical material on composers or performers
16
Locating Information Measures skills with workplace graphics – find information in a graphic (rehearsals) – insert information into a graphic (marking scores) Compare, summarize, and analyze information found in related graphics. MUSIC EXAMPLES: Score analysis; marching band charts
17
Locating Information Characteristics of Items Very complicated and detailed Large amounts of information Or challenging formats One or more graphics are used at a time – Connections between graphics may be subtle
18
Locating Information Skills – Draw conclusions based on one complicated graphic or several related graphics – Apply information from one or more complicated graphics to specific situations – Use the information to make decisions – Music examples: Sight reading; ensemble work; improvisation or practice techniques
19
Teamwork Measures skills for choosing behaviors that both: lead toward the accomplishment of work tasks and support the relationships between team members. A team = any workplace group with common goal and ownership of shared responsibility in achieving that goal. MUSIC EXAMPLES: Ensemble work
20
Teamwork Structure and process planning: organizing the various parts of a problem or task, sequencing them, and determining who will be responsible for them Create and revise team goals Shifting from one objective to another, depending on circumstances Integrate or synthesize multiple task components into a coherent whole Be flexible in the roles they play on the team using active listening, questioning, and directive behaviors Resolve conflict among team members and give negative feedback in a constructive manner Build team cohesiveness by helping to create a feeling of unity within the team
21
Examples of Teamwork Sectionals, rehearsals: Marching band Chamber ensembles Jazz groups Pickup and pit bands and orchestras Soloists with Accompanists Virtually everything we do!!!
22
Observation Skills On-the-job training "learn by doing" skills. Visually observe notice details, and remember instructions, procedures, processes, and demonstrations in order to generalize to workplace situations that may be similar or very different from what was observed MUSIC EXAMPLES: Rehearsing, performing for a conductor, ensemble performances
23
Listening Skills Primary information = given and is correct THE SCORE Accurate supporting information ito convey insight regarding tone or attitude Conductor’s interpretation Accurately convey the relationships among the pieces of information in the message MUSIC EXAMPLES: Read score accurately but follow conductor’s direction.
24
TECHNOLOGY
25
Applied Technology Reasoning, not math. Analyze problem and its parts Decide what is important Order of tasks. Apply existing tools, materials, or methods to new situations. Musical Examples: PRACTICE SKILLS and REHEARSAL SKILLS
26
Applied Technology Complex tools or systems with more than ten components (instruments? Scores?) Possible problem sources that are subtle and difficult to diagnose (Error detection) Technical knowledge (Signatures: key/meter) Extraneous information (Multi-line scores) Technical terms (Tempo markings?)
27
TIMESHEET and TECHNOLOGY: Music Applications Personal Practice Techniques Ensemble Rehearsal Techniques Error Detection and Score Analysis Evaluations and Critiques No wonder… – MUSICIANS are SUCCESSFUL!!
28
So let’s review….
29
21 st Century Skills are about…. Communication Problem Solving Teamwork
30
Tattoos, Timesheets and Technology are all about… finding valuable treasure with the BAND!!
31
But both work and life SATISFACTION is really all about meaningful and lifelong CONNECTIONS
