Journal Entry 1 (Group Project)

Go BIG Blue!!!
Today in our group we discussed what can educators and students utilize through technology to enhance the teaching and learning experience. Jung actually said the idea multiculturalism through arts education. We all agreed. So we entitled our project P.A.M (Performing Arts in Multiculturalism). We decided to address the definitions and goals of multiculturalism in the performing arts classroom. We wanted multiculturalism in music and dance education in the United States because we notice that there are parallelisms in general education which creates literacy brought by different events (socially and historically). The purpose of this project is to have different philosophies pertaining to multiculturalism and relevant lesson plans. So we broke the project up. Seung had to search for youtube videos and audio media which entailed multiculturalism. Jung had to research multiculturalism through dance. Finally, I had to research multiculturalism through music and start on the powerpoint presentation.
