OK, 1st give the students a test. I would like the test to be a chapter test or mid-charter review or even a quiz. I have selected various types of instrumental genres to include: classical, pop, classic rock and folk. If you have a preference of the music, let me know by Friday, November 6th. Either call or email me with your choice of music. If you have your own music let me know, as well. My contact information is on the letter sent by my mom through the school system.
On the day of the test, play the music. After the tests are graded, visit the blogspot and take a short survey. The link is posted on the right sidebar of my blog.
Thanks for your participation. Repeat this process as many times as you are willing until December 18, 2009.
Rock on . . . .

Hi Christian:
ReplyDeleteIf your teachers want they can request their music right on the blog. They just would need to have a blogger account.
Keep on rolling . . . Mom
Hey Christian -
ReplyDeleteYou are off to a good start with your project. This is very interesting. I used jazz for one of my classes, and the test scores were much better. The music relaxed them, and they seemed think clearer. I am really excited to see the analysis and outcome of this project, taking into consideration the different types of music that the teachers used. Keep on trucking!!!

ReplyDeletePlease help your teachers input the student data on the online Teacher Survey. Also, survey your friends at school. Suggest that they visit your blog and take the survey on what's stressing them.
Keep the project rolling . . . Mom
