Education Music

Have you heard about Education music?
Not yet?
Maybe you will say that education music is the music to educate or music that uses in the education such as Kindergarten songs (twinkle-twinkle little stars or ABC, hehehe..)
Well, there are more than that. 
Based on Wikipedia, Music education is a field of study associated with the teaching and learning of music.
See, music education is a field, not a song itself.. :p

Music Education touches on all domains of learning, including the psychomotor domain (the development of skills), the cognitive domain (the acquisition of knowledge), and, in particular and significant ways, the affective domain, including music appreciation and sensitivity. The incorporation of music training from preschool to postsecondary education is common in most nations because involvement in music is considered a fundamental component of human culture and behaviour, like I said before, the example at the kindergarten.
Music, like language, is an accomplishment that distinguishes us as humans.
there are 5 major international music education method, such as :

Dalcroze method
The method is divided into three fundamental concepts - the use of solfege, improvisation, and eurhythmics. Sometimes referred to as "rhythmic gymnastics”
Kodály method
Although not really an educational method, this teachings reside within a fun, educational framework built on a solid grasp of basic music theory and music notation in various verbal and written forms.
Orff Schulwerk
Carl Orff was a prominent German composer. The Orff Schulwerk is considered an "approach" to music education. It begins with a student's innate abilities to engage in rudimentary forms of music, using basic rhythms and melodies.
Suzuki method
The Suzuki method was developed by Shinichi Suzuki in Japan shortly after World War II, and it uses music education to enrich the lives and moral character of its students. The movement rests on the double premise that "all children can be well educated" in music, and that learning to play music at a high level also involves learning certain character traits or virtues which make a person's soul more beautiful.
Simply Music method
Simply Music is a playing-based music education institution. The program is primarily based on creating, developing and presenting playing-based piano and keyboard programs. The Simply Music method was created by Australian music educator, Neil Moore, and first released in January 1998.
What do you think, fellas? Do you interest with this?
Maybe you can applied the music education to your class when you are a teacher, especially when you are the art teacher.. :p
But hey, we are the art and language students right? So, why not. I think it is fun to do those method in our class and see how much it works. 
