The
Midlands
of
S.C.
Virtual
Academy
for
the
Performing
Arts
has
noted
a
need
in
their
curriculum
for
a
tutorial
in
the
area
of
acoustic
percussion
in
the
drum-­‐kit
discipline.
We
did
a
needs
survey
to
determine
how
we
can
best
accomplish
this.
We
answered
the
following
queries.
1. What
do
you
know?
In
the
Mid-­‐S.C.
Academy
Perf.
Arts
music
curriculum
it
was
noted
that
the
students
weren’t
getting
the
concept
down
really
well
about
how
to
develop
flow
and
the
type
of
progressive
independence
(what
it
is
known
by
in
the
drummer’s
trade)
where
a
player
has
developed
the
ability
to
play
different
rudiments
independently
of
the
other
limbs.
(As
defined
in
his
book
Progressive
Independence
by
Ron
Spagnardi,
updated
for
2013
a
primer
For
Rock
Drumming)

2. What
do
you
want
to
know?
The
idea
we
have
evolved
is
“Can
we
take
a
student
who
is
a
novice
(someone
who
is
a
experienced
learner
with
some
knowledge
of
the
instrument-­‐drums
)
or
a
Rank
Amateur-­‐someone
with
no
skills
at
all,
and
teach
them
some
specific
techniques
to
get
them
headed
in
the
way
which
will
get
them
headed
in
the
direction
of
learning

3. What
are
you
trying
to
measure,
determine,
or
define?
We
are
using
this
presentation
via
Powerpoint
to
determine
which
students
will
have
the
necessary
potential
to
be
advanced
into
the
advanced
course
of
Music
Appreciation
where
we
begin
to
start
each
student
into
the
specialization
of
their
instrument
and
for
our
purpose
we
are
going
to
ask
the
students
to
perform
the
rudiments
which
we
show
them
once
they
have
observed
and
practiced
the
techniques
we
describe
and
model
for
them
in
our
clinic
time
together
over
the
summer
at
our
“band
camp”
seminar.
4. How
will
you
collect
and
record
information.
We
will
make
evaluations
of
those
whom
are
showing
promise
to
move
up
into
the
advanced
course
(where
we
go
through
the
primer
and
CD’s
by
Ron
Spagnardi
but
we
still
have
written
our
own
curriculum).
5. How
will
you
report
the
information
you
collect?
We
are
going
to
reveal
our
results
to
the
students
and
their
parents
and
make
recommendations
whether
they
should
continue
as
students
in
this
particular
offering
or
we
will
otherwise
approve
the
students
whom
do
adequately
on
the
“show-­‐and-­‐tell”
part
of
the
clinic
for
our
learners
of
the
instrument
(what
we
call
the
drum-­‐kit
because
we
want
the
students
to
understand
the
history
involved
they
will
also
write
an
essay
about
it
and
to
recognize
that
it
has
evolved
over
a
century
of
evolution
into
what

we
are
privileged
to
utilize
today)
to
move
into
the
advanced
course
or
to
take
up
another
instrument
to
study
or
to
change
to
another
course
curriculum
at
Mid-­‐S.C.
Acad-­‐Perf-­‐Arts.

essay)
6.
Are
all
interested
groups
included
in
planning
and
conducting
the
needs
assessment?
We
at
our
upcoming
clinic
(
our
“band
camp”)
will
have
given
the
learners
a
lot
of
leeway.
We
will
have
had
video-­‐chat
availability
if
some
need
some
tips
for
us
to
model
how
to
do
the
parts
of
the
techniques
which
might
give
the
most
trouble.
By
then
the
ones
whom
can
play
it
well
enough
will
be
ready
for
the
next
evolution
in
their
performing
arts
education
on
the
instrument.
