Wk4 Publishing/Leadership ProjectMy plan for presenting my action research project is to make request to present at the 2012 Ohio Music Educators Conference (OMEA) in Columbus, Ohio. I have been a member of OMEA for the past seven or eight years and attend the annual conference each year to listen to clinicians speak on relevant issues in the realm of music education. The entire four day conference that are hundreds of sessions to attend that speak of music technology, music advocacy, vocal techniques, instrumental ensembles, and many more.
By the recommendation Dennis Dill, I chose to select a second conference at which to share my presentation that is unrelated to music professionals. I selected the Ohio Council of the International Reading Association. I decided to select this group becase the project still remains relevant to their particular situation. The National conference will be held in Chicago next April. The Ohio conference, at the present, as no dates or information listed in regards to their conference schedule.
With the current economic situations in Ohio, any advocacy for music education is much appreciated and after assessing the data from my action research project, it seems to provide strength to this very issue. Understanding the relationship between music and reading literacy and how music can be used as an effective intervention will hopefully help the continuation of music education programs in Ohio.
