    Leading Without Permission

    No full text
    Author Robin Hummel makes an emphatic, persuasive plea for teachers to seize the reins of instructional leadership and take responsibility - even in the face of recalcitrant administrators and increasingly prescriptive curricula - for their own professional learning and growth. She makes the case for action research as a particularly potent professional development tool, and shows how it serves to liberate teachers from inertia and dependency

    Johann Nepomuk Hummel and his contribution to piano music and the art of playing the piano

    No full text
    Vita.Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), a contemporary of Beethoven, was an international figure as a composer, a pianist, a conductor, and a teacher. He was primarily known as a piano virtuoso, and his compositions were widely performed in his lifetime. There are 127 works which have opus numbers; in addition there are approximately 50 other works without opus number. It seems strange that these works have almost completely disappeared from present-day concert repertoire and that he is merely remembered as a one-time pianist. There is no doubt that Hummel’s music has to be fully investigated in order for him to be recognized in the manner that he deserves. Through his many-sided influence, such piano virtuosi as Czerny and Liszt were assisted in their development. One of his most important contributions is his treatise on playing the piano, which marks the beginning of modern piano technique. This book, Ausfuehrliche theoretisch-practische Anweisung zum Pianofortespiel, will be discussed in some detail in Chapter III of the present dissertation. This study is also concerned with Hummel’s piano music and his influence upon piano literature in general. The author will discuss the relationship between Hummel and such leading composers of the period as Beethoven and Mozart, as well as some minor composers. One aspect of this study is the consideration of characteristic stylistic traits in his piano works (nine sonatas, seven concertos, and 67 miscellaneous small pieces), which reveal Hummel’s position among his contemporaries and in the history of pianoforte literature and performance. The study is preceded by a biographical account, based principally upon Karl Benyovszky’s J. N. Hummel, der Mensch und Kuenstler

    How one helps: personality, theoretical orientation, and helping skill preference

    No full text
    In order to test the interrelationships among personality, preferred theoretical orientation to counseling, and preferences for various response modes (helping skills) in counseling, undergraduates in peer counseling and basic helping skills courses completed measures of these three constructs. Findings include four significant relationships between personality factors and theoretical orientations, and four significant relationships between theoretical orientation and helping skill preference. Three significant relationships between personality factors and helping skill preference were found, including two replications from an earlier study by the author (Hummel & Gelso, 2007). Identification with and belief in the humanistic/client-centered theoretical orientation was found to be a mediator between emotional stability and preference for direct guidance. Overall, there were modest interrelationships between personality, theoretical orientation, and helping skill preference in beginning helping trainees; but it was suggested that these relationships may not yet be solidified at this point in their development as helpers
