    When I entered the education landscape, I was foreign to the ideas and the nature of those that saw themselves as something more than just a student. I never thought that those students that sat behind the deteriorating desks could educate themselves. Ergo, as I transferred from middle school to high school, I began to discover those students that were seen as insignificant if I wanted to succeed within what was previously taught to me as the “real world”. Yet, it was through those encounters with those strange and unique individuals where I was exposed to something pure. I remember the first time I was ever exposed to music as an educational structure for me to discover myself in.…

    In the article “Why Do We “Skip to My Lou,” Anyway”, the author, Nancy L. Glen, educates the audience about things such as how to teach songs in music curriculum, descriptions about the lyrics, and the history behind the songs in America. According to Ms. Glen, many party songs sung by children today have transited throughout generations in America, and originated from immigrant settlers not only as entertainment but as ways to socially interact in rural areas (especially throughout the 19th and 20th centuries). The songs were easy to learn and remember for party goers and children, but became altered over the years as they were learned orally and mostly without any written record. The author listed “Skip to My Lou”, “Pig in the Parlor”, “Weevily Wheat” as three examples of these play party songs and some…

    Every educator has a personal philosophy of music education, but the overarching theme is almost always the same—the students and their personal growth are the most important parts of this subject and the education. Without them, this profession means nothing, because as music educators we should strive to allow music the opportunity to make a positive impact in our students’ lives and hopefully inspire them to continue pursuing it. The overall purpose of music education is to inspire those around us to become better people, to develop confidence, and to encourage growth in and out of the classroom. Music is simply the catalyst of great personal growth that is only possible with a dedicated educator and a love for the art and all it has to…

    Jaws Sound Analysis

    • 6 Pages

    Jaws has been memorable since its release in 1975, but most of its success is due to the magic of editing, which helped hide mechanical defects of production while heightening suspense, and its iconic music, both of which cemented Jaws’ position as a blockbuster. Though the concept of the titular creature becomes obvious shortly after the film beings, the crazily large man eating shark remains mostly unseen throughout the film. Unfortunately, the technology was not available to construct a large realistic shark, so rather than come off looking absurdly unrealistic, the choice was made to leave the image of the shark up to the editors, who were left with horrible raw footage of a floating barge, and transformed it into something the viewers were genuinely afraid of.…
