Since I had the interview with my interviewee, I gained a new perspective on men who were arrested and served their time in prison. They're just as much people as we are and I am now more open minded.

The podcast has been the most meaningful to me because, as a future educator, it's important to learn a bit about how others think differently than yourself, and interacting with another in that way was very rewarding.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that doing your work on time is very valuable, as it avoids the stress of procrastination.

# data[].attributes.body
I had long written off creating through technology because I didn't think I had the skills to do it well and I don't like doing things badly. It's true that I didn't have the skills and I did make some bad things, but creating different things in this class helped me realize that I have some creative tendencies that I didn't realize I had, and and that using technology wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.

# data[].attributes.body
I had no idea there was a difference between a quarter inch and instrument cable.

I really liked reading this article and then being able to ask our questions directly to the author. She was really fun to have in class and I learned a lot from her about adapting the classroom to be more supportive of any kinds of differences.

This Project gave me a closer, more personal interaction with a group of men from the Gemeinshaft house, a half-way house for men who were convicted felons out of jail. This opened my eyes to the reality that these men are just like us, just with a rougher past.

I learned how to accept failure as a bridge to success rather than a roadblock

This experience was really eye opening to me because I was meeting someone with a drastically different perspective on music, and yet still just as impactful on their life as it is in mine.

DAW creation
-I had previously made music before, but it was based on acoustic instruments. I had never experimented with creating through a DAW or editing through a DAW. It was also fun to use a picture as my inspiration, as I had never thought of dong that.

The musicianship project components have really helped me be able to better adapt to new technology. Going in to this class, I had little knowledge of what a DAW was, whereas now I not only know the premise but have the skill to use one. Additionally, the Alice Hammel reading helped me understand a subject matter I had little previous exposure to.

Leadership Project- Makey Makey Instrument

# data[].attributes.body
This project required us to have a different perspective. We had to keep trying different approaches while designing and putting together the instrument in order to make it work and to ensure that it has fulfilled its purpose. It took a lot of patience and determination, but overall, it taught me a lot.

# data[].attributes.body
Learning how to navigate the DAW and cut the audio files down to have one coherent conversation was one of the more meaningful topics for me. I already had experience with the physical hardware that went into getting a recording including the mics, wires, speakers, etc., but I got to experiment with the stations and create something using the knowledge that I already had as well as the information we learned in class.

The Hammel reading and the Leadership project were meaningful to me. I have family members with special needs and family who work in the special education field. Learning more about the policy involved in it was fascinating. As far as the project goes, the skills of learning to code with scratch and develop a plan/design are things that I think I'll find very useful moving forward. I liked that I learned more about how to have a label-free classroom and understanding that each individual may have their own needs that need to be met. To create an environment where every person can grow as they are best fit.

I really enjoyed doing the remix that we produced using splice. It gave me a better understanding of how music technology works and gave me insight in how some types of music are made. Additionally, I also gained knowledge of how to use GarageBand to cut, edit, copy and paste different sections of the song and then later how to add those parts that you copied onto other parts of the song. I also enjoyed the interview project because it allowed me to learn about how someone else began to get into music and let me learn about some of the reasoning behind it.

I thought the interview/podcast project was really interesting. It showed me how other people interact with music in their daily lives and how important it can be in other careers. I learned a lot about editing through this project. I learned how to, that I'm not great at it, and that I don't particularly like it. Even though I'm not crazy about it I can see how it can be a useful skill to have. I was able to understand the many uses of garage band a lot more and I quickly became more accustomed to it which greatly helped in the musicianship project.

I learned about the different resources from departments outside of music. to help develop my skills as a musician. This was specifically involved in my Makey Makey project. I was able to go to the Makery to do this.

It allowed me to be more creative and experiment with different ideas to create music.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned to transfer my musical ideas into reality and borrow some of other people's ideas and piece together my own work. I have gained knowledge about the art of creating popular music and to adapt to new technology. I now understand that I should be comfortable trying new things, failing, and eventually creating something I am proud of.

Making this project has been meaningful to me because we had to think about how to create an instrument that would help a student with physical disabilities participate effectively in a music class without sacrificing the musicality of the instrument.

# data[].attributes.body
The Leadership Project has been the most meaningful to me. Through it, I've had to learn to control my assumptions about what people will easily be able to do and how to account for those differences. I've developed an understanding of what some of the many different limiting physical conditions may be.

This was my favorite project because I learned from my interviewee about different perceptions of music making and music teaching outside of my genre which gave me more ideas on how to approach music, especially in a fun way. Creating the podcast itself also gave me the ability to experimented producing a piece that was super refined and edited which I had never really done before.

# data[].attributes.body
The engagement interview was the most meaningful to me. I enjoyed learning more about someone's background in music, and the way they engage with music.
I have learned how to use coding skills better because of this class.
I've gained more knowledge on how to splice for an interview.

I learned how to pan, add loops, mix, and create soundscapes with MIDIS. I also learned how to record things and add them into my DAW, teaching me that truly anything (such as a chair or sandpaper) can be an instrument.
