I've got this huge assignment to do for Music Pedagogy.It's got to do with creativity. It's actually two assignments, connected to each other.I need to find out about creativity, from the psychological aspect. What happens in our brains when we are being put in a creative situation.. is genius really for some people or for all? And what is the creative process that happens when we are doing things related to music. What encourages children to be creative, and is tehre a limit to creatvity? The whole issue just could lead on to another and another.....Then, after figuring all that out, I need to formulate a class that lasts 20 minutes for a bunch of 5-year-olds, a creative music class, that will support the research I've found about the psychological aspect of being creative. I've found this class to be very demanding. But the challenges are worth the suffering I have to go through. That's what college life is all about isn't it?So, if you can contribute any ideas on how to teach 5 year old kids music in the most creative way, let me know? ;-)
