Learners will explore, analyze, and investigate the psychological impacts of music in this four-week self-paced class! Additionally, throughout this class, learners will gain a further appreciation for music. We do not always take the time to truly appreciate the power of music. Music plays a key role throughout our daily lives. Music can impact our emotions, making us feel motivated, sad, happy, and confident. Learners will have the opportunity to create multiple music playlists for different feelings, analyze their favorite songs, and grow a further appreciation for music. The goal of this class is to not only be educational but also fun! No musical background is required for this course to enroll. This class is not designed to be challenging or time-consuming, but rather a journey dedicated to exploring the power of music and its influence on our emotions, creativity, and well-being. Each lesson is crafted to spark curiosity, encourage self-expression, and deepen our understanding of the profound connection between music and ourselves.
Learning Goals
Throughout this four week self-paced class, learners will learn about how music impacts our emotions, share with the class their favorite songs, create multiple music playlists, and much more! Learners will also gain a further appreciation for music throughout this class.
