1. Prouty, Kenneth E. "The History of Jazz Education: A Critical Reassessment." Journal of Historical Research in Music Education 26, no. 2 (2005): 79-100.

This resource was found through google scholar and is published in a respected music journal.  The source talks at length about the history of jazz education.  It contributes to the sections marked formal jazz history, transitional period, and what is jazz.  

2. Chinen, Nate. "Jazz is alive and well. In the classroom, anyway." The New York Times (2007).

Nate Chinen’s article in the New York Times is an excellent addition to our opinions page about jazz education.  Chinen seems to have a nice grasp about jazz, but his credibility can just be linked to the fact he researched the subject well before writing this piece.  The source talks all about what jazz education is doing to the genre and how it has helped the art form to stay alive and well even though the visibility of artists has declined. Like the other sources, this was found through google scholar which I find to be reliable.

3. Humphreys, Michael, and Terry Hyland. "Theory, Practice and Performance in Teaching: professionalism, intuition, and jazz." Educational Studies 28, no. 1 (2002): 5-15.

Hyland and Humphreys article in the Educational Studies journal highlights the importance of teaching in jazz education. They also delve into how crucial improvisation is to both jazz and life in general.  They talk at length about these ideas making us feel the need to add a whole tab dedicated to improvisation in formal jazz education. Like the other sources, this was found through google scholar which I find to be reliable.

4. Barrett, Frank J. "Coda—creativity and improvisation in jazz and organizations: Implications for organizational learning." Organization science, no. 5 (1998): 605-622.

Barrett’s article in Organized Science journal basically talks about how jazz looks in the classroom.  The only time it talks about jazz before the classroom is when Barrett compares the classroom to certain events.  Like the other sources, this was found through google scholar which I find to be reliable.
