The first video watched was Corporate Communication BUS 210, “Introduction to Corporate Communication” and right at the beginning I had to pause the video and make sure I had the paper structured correctly. Once the video began and the individual started speaking “The goal of this course is to teach you how to apply the concepts of effective communication in the business setting.” (Saylor Academy, n.d.) I had to watch that section repeatedly to ensure I had the information noted correctly, as the gentleman was a fast speaker. Using this method took me eight minutes to watch a two-minute video. It was the same with each video I watched. I did not feel as if the method became easier

With the introduction of a tutor, piano quickly became a bigger part of my life. However, while songs like “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” were fun, they meant easy progression and little time enjoying the product of practice. Two stanza songs hastily grew into “Fur

“The Art of Practicing is about art, about creating something fresh and genuine. In this approach, practicing is not so different from performing” (Bruser 11). The author tells the story when years ago, she was practicing for a long time and suddenly she started to focus on listening to the sound that was coming out of the piano rather than imagining what sound she wanted to hear. For the first time, she truly heard what she was playing. Ms. Bruser says that she felt free and spontaneous, just like if she were performing on a stage. We can all practice this sensation every day during our practice sections.

In music there are many different successful ways of teaching music although many have flaws. Such as to much repetition, and not enough excitement. In this paper we will compare orff shulwerk, kodaly method, Suzuki, and eurythmics. All of these have different ways of teaching, and we will analyze these different methods piece by piece.

For this study I expect the participation of at least 30 volunteers within the ages of 45-50 years (men and women) which are on-line students at graduate level at Southern New Hampshire University enrolled in a Research Methods course. Participants must not have any previous training in any musical instrument. This particular characteristic would be required for the reason that it has been found that people with such training could excel in the variable that is expected to be measured (recall). Participants will not receive compensation for their participation.

In the video How to Live to be One Hundred Plus the main goal is trying to find the optimal lifestyle of longevity and come up with a formula for longevity. Dan Buettner starts talking about three blue zones: Sardinia, Okinawa, and Loma Linda, CA. The first blue zone is in Sardinia, only up in the highlands with an area called the Nuoro province. This part of Sardinia has an oldest male society, where 102 year olds ride bikes to work and chop wood. Since the land is so infertile, people in this area are mostly shepherds, which means their exercise is regular low-intensity physical activity. Their diet is mostly plant based and consists of unleavened whole wheat bread called carta musica, cheese made from grass fed animals high in omega 3 fatty acids, and Cannonau, a wine with three times the level of polyphenols. In this society, age and knowledge is thought of very highly, and is celebrated through a centenarian of the month calendar. Keeping family around is also a big part of the culture and can add an extra 6 years of life expectancy, which is also known as the grandmother effect.

Piano can surely be considered one of the most widely-known musical instruments. It is an iconic instrument that has a beautiful sound.
