Guitar Fundamentals Book 4
Restricted Use
Copyright Restricted
Rating
0.0 stars

George Arvola (1948-2016) was a guitarist and music teacher. He created his own series of guitar method books entitled Guitar Fundamentals. Volumes 2-5 of this series are based on approximately 600 pages of music manuscript by Tony Bradan (1913-1999) entitled A Learning Process for Playing the Guitar, which Tony entrusted to George. These books outline a process by which serious, dedicated students can gain:the ability to read standard notation for guitar, skill in applying efficient pick control and left hand fingering, an intimate knowledge of the guitar fretboard and flexibility in finding efficient fingerings for melodies, scales, triads, arpeggios and 3- and 4-part chords in real time, the ability to play accompaniment, the ability to play 4-part harmony, chord resolutions and voice movement, and the basics of improvisation. We are preserving this guitar method online in the hope that present and future generations of guitarists will benefit from the innovative approaches within.

Indigenous Lifeways in Canadian Business
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC
Rating
0.0 stars

Long Description:
Storytelling practices have been used for millennia as an educational tool for passing knowledge from one generation to the next. (Woodhouse, 2011). This collection offers a series of digital storytelling vignettes that briefly explain topics related to the Indigenous business environment in Canada. The video series contains interview content from Indigenous business leaders from across the country and highlights both the obstacles and successes of those professionals. Contributors explore their relationships with governments, corporations, and other non-Indigenous institutions while conducting their business activities.

The efficacy of storytelling can be seen in contemporary education settings where student engagement, achievement, and motivation are all enhanced when digital storytelling technologies are integrated into classroom pedagogy (Smeda, Dakich, & Sharda, 2014). The Indigenous Lifeways in Canadian Business project employs digital storytelling as an Open Educational Resource video series to deliver content about Indigenous business issues in Canada. Instructors can easily integrate any of the digital Indigenous content videos within the curriculum of their courses as needed. This instructor guide contains a listing of all the videos in the series along with descriptions of what each of the videos contains.

It isn’t always easy for instructors to incorporate Indigenous content into their courses as they strive to meet the Calls to Action that emerged from the Truth and Reconciliation’s Report in 2015. Indigenous-centric curricula in mainstream programs is scarce in post-secondary institutions (Brown, Doucette, & Tulk, 2016). This series introduces important business topics impacting Indigenous students, entrepreneurs, and business leaders in Canada by connecting users to their stories. End-users can link to one or more of the videos, embed the material into their course websites, or download a video to use offline. End-users cannot, however, make any derivatives of the video material.”

Rating
0.0 stars

This reformation will present readers a view of interdisciplinarity and the foundational components that have been present throughout human history. You might ask, why is there a problem with interdisciplinarity now? What this book outlines are the questionable and potentially, malevolent ideals that have been pervasive in our society that go against the forms of logic and reason. This will be a catalyst towards a reform for epistemological connections in logic, ethics and emotion that relate to us as autonomous individuals that impact our learning, life, and society.
