Lawrence Scripp explores music as a medium and model for interdisciplinary teaching and learning. Contemporary educators and researchers have been interested in the possible links between the learning students do in music and learning across the curriculum. Using music as a point of departure, Scripp discusses the innovations and controversies with regard to early development of symbol system skills (literacy in music, math, and reading); arts-integrated teaching and learning processes; research in music and learning transfer; and a "design standards" approach for the development of research-based interdisciplinary music curricula and assessment practices in public schools.
