Diana Strakšienė (Šiaulių universitetas)Educational research shows that beauty, goodness, religiousness and other spiritual values, in the eyes of the students, are almost in the last place of the value scales; the research shows that the prestige of these values is not growing, but decreasing (Aramavičiūtė, 2005; Martišauskienė, 2004, 2011). There are a lot of cases of offensiveness, rudeness, mocking and dependencies in schools. This is making the society concerned, thus it is important to look for preventative means to decrease the manifestation of evil in schools. This task may be helped, along by other factors, by developing music education as artistic-spiritual education. A relevant problem arises: What are the philosophical, psychological, musical and educational implications and possibilities in schools? The provision of Education concept (1992) also shows the necessity to reorient education towards a change of persona culture. This means that schools must not submit to the tendency to go with the flow of the degrading mass culture; schools must go above the existing cultural environment (Lukšienė, 1993).[...]Mokytojų rengimo institutasVytauto Didžiojo universiteta
