1. What is your working EQ?
-What is the most effective way to impact a community positively through music education?
2. What are some possible answers to your working EQ?
Possible Answers:
-Some things to consider when trying to impact a community positively through music education is music does not make someone smarter or more effective , rather people who tend to succeed in extra curricular activities tend to me more involved and strive forward.
This is good to consider because you learn to
-*teach them not just how to be a good musician but good discipline, time management, and social skills.
-Provide more than just music as a service but also a sense of belonging.
-Show benefits of trial and error( so they won't give up).
3. What is the most important source you have used that has helped you come up with an answer to your working EQ?
-The most important sources I have found have been any research articles that contradict the importance and impact of music education. These have been significantly helpful because it gives me different views on my subject and whether or not I have a good working EQ. It also gets me thinking of the bigger picture as far as "positively impacting" a community goes. For instance, the question came up; What MORE could I provide rather than just music education? Are there other contributing factors that play into successfully impacting a community? Things like that.
4.Who is your mentor, or where are you doing mentorship, and how does what you are doing relate to your working EQ?
-My mentor is Janine Riveire, string ensemble director up at Cal Poly Pomona. What I do there relates to my working EQ because the college community is a vital one. These are people that are going to be in the work force soon and college is often times a pinnacle point in their lives. So however you can impact them positively might spark something no one ever knew was there.

Blog 7: Independent Component 1 Approval
1. Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours?
-For my 30 hours/independent component I plan on participating in my mentors class up at Cal Poly. The class I will be participating in is an advanced strings class. In this we will be learning how to perform as a team and being in a team requires building trust and friendships. I will also be helping her teach the class in minor ways such as going around to help students, checking for understanding, and making sure everyone participates. Being in both the class and shadowing my mentor will be good because I think often times one can forget what it is like to be in the students seat.
2. Describe what you will do to meet the expectations of showing 30 hour evidence.
-I will take copies of the sheet music we read and show the notes a player makes on the side. I will also take three videos of the classrooms progress as a whole when performing. I will also provide any tests or quizzes.
3. Explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth.
-This will help me explore my topic, music education, in more depth by providing one of the most accurate experiences as far as teaching goes. I will be gaining a college experience by working with Dr. Janine Riveire. It will also help me to see all the different ways students learn and what to consider when teaching higher difficulty level classes.
