Currently, I am thinking about our Internet2 class and music education. I have several issues about curriculum and professional development for music students. I think students who are majoring in music will need more various kinds classes including technology, science, and humanities; music conservatories should improve their limited curriculum as soon as possible.
Why should music conservatories' curriculum be improved? This is a perplexing question for music educators who have educated and trained themselves in American classical music conservatories, and have remained aloof from outside of debates and discussions on curriculum development. There are many reasons and answers for this question, in that music educators are eager to develop current educational systems no matter what the curricula contain. Also, they want to prevent current curriculum systems from potential problems in the future. Correspondingly, I think there are two main reasons for why the curriculum of music conservatories should be changed; it is important for new curricula of music conservatories to understand cultural dynamics in American society, and to give greater emphasis to the professional development of their students.
