Project 1: Inspirational Voices of the 40s and 50s
My first project was about 4 inspirational singers from the 40s and 50s, and how they influenced artists and music today, as well as me. These 4 singers are Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, and Johnny Cash.
Project 2: The Evolution of Pop Punk Music
My second project was about the evolution of pop punk music and how historical events reflected onto the lyrics and music. The thinking skill that I used for each aspect was contextualization.
Project 3: The Death of Kurt Cobain
My third project was about the tragic and unfortunate death of Kurt Cobain. This project was about what lead up to his suicide, and the aftermath/affects using the thinking skill, reasoning.
Project 4: The Art Within Photography
My fourth and final project of the year was a collaboration with two fellow students where we went to different historic places in Pennsylvania to take photographs. We tracked our progress through a blog, using the thinking skill synthesis.
