Teachers are examples of a professional voice users and need to maintain a healthy vocal quality to adequately provide instruction. Vocal hygiene information for current educators and preservice educators is not abundantly available, however, if education is provided, it is typically provided in a seminar. To investigate the efficacy of a vocal health seminar, a pretest/posttest research design was implemented with first-year (N = 30) and fourth-year (N = 24) music education students. Students attended a vocal health seminar and pre- and posttests were administered to examine knowledge gained during the seminar. The results indicated that students were able to provide more robust and accurate responses following the seminar. Fourth-year students who were completing their student teaching placements one semester after the seminar ended, also completed a follow-up survey during their student teaching experience. The follow-up survey revealed that students felt the seminar helped them avoid developing a voice disorder in their student teaching placements. Overall, it appears that the seminar was effective in providing both groups of students with vocal hygiene information as it related to their future careers as professional voice users. 2020-04-30 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1588190950179913 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1588190950179913 restricted--full text unavailable until 2025-04-27 This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
