Abstract
How does music influence our lives? Music has the capacily to affect social change.
Music has the ability to serve as a vessel for social, economical, political. spiritual, &
religious expression, and can be explored and valued as a medium for historical
exploration. Students are expected to add to the discourse by thinking critically about
how music shapes their own lives. Consider the motional impact music has over our
senses-including visual impact. Consider how music embodies a specific culture (pop
culture, Latin culture, folk movement, Rock-n-Roll), expresses an attitude, and can speak
for our hearts. We will utilize various forms of the media to explore our topic, such as,song lyrics, musicals,film., Internet, magazines, album covers, the radio, Television.
