Using Popular Music to Teach Social and Emotional LearningWednesday, April 26, 2023This session engages attendees in methods that integrate social and emotional learning using various genres of popular music, including musical theater, rap, and pop. Attendees are engaged in activities composed of active listening, symbolism, emotional responses to musical elements, higher-order questioning techniques, and how to use information gathered from these activities to create music to elicit emotional responses using loop-based DAWs. This session also highlights ways in which popular music can help us address important topics with our students, such as coping with death, how to process and understand conflicting emotions, dealing with feelings of isolation, suicide, and using the resources in our schools to support our students. Attendees learn about the use of musical and nonmusical sounds and how they are used in the songwriting process. Presented by the Kennedy Center School and Community Programs Department. Presenter: Ryan Gardner Free for members, $10 for non-members. Register here. Closed captioning and ASL interpretation are both available for all webinars.
