![]() 2009 Response to special issue of ‘Action, criticism and theory for music education’ concerning ‘Music, informal learning and the school: A new classroom pedagogy’. For information about the Musical Futures project, see: To look more closely into examples of this debate, see ‘Beyond Lucy Green’, VRME, special edition, Volume 12, 2008, at, and ‘Action, Criticism, and Theory for Music Education’, Volume 8, Issue 2, 2009 Professor MacPherson authored a number of books for music education between 19, among them The musical education of the child (1915).Ĥ. I use the word ‘dichotomy’ to describe a division or contrast between two things that actually exist or are represented as being in opposition or entirely different ‘two things’ here refer to views, practises, policies, discourse, positions, etc.ģ. ) defines ‘globalization’ as ‘the intensification of worldwide social relations which link distant localities in such a way that local happenings are shaped by events occurring many miles away and vice versa’ (2).Ģ. In Comparative education: The dialectic of the global and the local, Edited by: Alberto, Robert F. “ Introduction: Reframing comparative education”. (This is not to be confused with Quadrature_(astronomy) which is when the Sun-Earth-Moon/superior planet angle is 90°.1. Dichotomy occurs when the Sun-Moon-Earth angle is 90°. For the Moon, this occurs slightly before one quarter Moon orbit and slightly after the third quarter of the Moon's orbit at 89.85° and 270.15°, respectively. In astronomy dichotomy is when the Moon or an inferior planet is exactly half-lit as viewed from Earth.For instance, C++ has a dichotomy in its memory model (heap versus stack), whereas Java has a dichotomy in its type system (references versus primitive data types). In computer science, more specifically in programming-language engineering, dichotomies are fundamental dualities in a language's design.A variable measured dichotomously is called a dummy variable. In statistics, dichotomous data may only exist at first two levels of measurement, namely at the nominal level of measurement (such as "British" vs "American" when measuring nationality) and at the ordinal level of measurement (such as "tall" vs "short", when measuring height). ![]() "not-English"), thus getting four Classes." "not-old"): we may then sub-divide each of these into "English" and "foreign" (i.e. For example, we may divide "books" into "old" and "new" (i.e. As Lewis Carroll explains, "After dividing a Class, by the Process of Dichotomy, into two smaller Classes, we may sub-divide each of these into two still smaller Classes and this Process may be repeated over and over again, the number of Classes being doubled at each repetition. One type of dichotomy is dichotomous classification – classifying objects by recursively splitting them into two groups.In some cases, they may be presented as if they are mutually exclusive although there is a broad middle ground (see also undistributed middle). In its most common form, two entities are presented as if they are exhaustive, when in fact other alternatives are possible. A false dichotomy is an informal fallacy consisting of a supposed dichotomy which fails one or both of the conditions: it is not jointly exhaustive and/or not mutually exclusive. ![]()
