Yadavi Jeyakumar says the arts and music were a large part of her life from a young age.
“They are really nice memories because I met a lot of my school friends there. It was like a common interest of ours,” she told SBS News. “They draw from a range of learning styles such as fostering creativity, imagination, and emotional responsivity.”The study, published in the International Journal for Music Education, explores the perceptions, experiences and practices of teachers directly or indirectly involved with the music education program in three Australian schools.
The study follows the federal government's announcement earlier in the year that university costs for some future arts and humanities courses will be raised by 113 per cent. Her music and arts programs provide students from various cultural backgrounds with a safe outlet to explore their identity.
They aren’t - it’s just the grants are given to those from disadvantaged areas or ethnic diverse backgrounds
Really
How many SBS articles start with, a study?
Arts and music....
Yeah but when the PM is racist he doesn’t want to hear that!
And we should care why? If they can’t succeed in our system they can move back and live under their own as they should.
1. Does this study provide support to the idea that STEM courses don't allow students with diverse backgrounds to succeed or unite with classmates? It seems that the study focuses on asking teachers involved in music education so of course this was going to be the finding.
No surprise in that study ...
Indeed!
