(b) Interdisciplinary Model Program in the Arts for Children and Teachers, and the National Standards for Arts Eudcation in the United States.? 2. To what extent can the Chinese Course of Study influences be observed in Chinese music education since? As a result of this study the following conclusions were reached : 1) The Sougouteki Gakusyu has tended to be the interdisciplinary and integrated curriculum in school curricula in Japan. 2) Each Arts Curriculum in the United States is closely related to the National Standards for Arts Eudcation in 1994. 3) It emphasizes not only arts education but also understanding relationship between music, the other arts, and disciplines outside the arts. 4) The purpose of music education is similar to Japan and PRC. However the purpose of music education in the United States is as follows : The arts are vital in this rapidly changing multi-media age. They facilitate and encourage the exchange of diverse views, reflecting and shaping cultures. As technology changes, so do the tools and materials of the arts. Students are prepared through visual arts, music, drama, and dance to interact effectively in a dynamic world, with joy, confidence, and a sense of fulfillment. 4) The relationship between dance and music is weak in Japan, but PRC and the US emphasize dance as a part of arts rogram.
