The first argument presented in the listening goes against the idea of the reading that violence is increasing due to videogames. The lecturer states that the studies named in the reading are outdated, and could not represent a statistic of the population due to the fact of the small group used in the research.

“Music can change the world because it can change people, (Bono)” The inevitable truth is music has a way of impacting the lives of those who hear it. However, another undeniable fact is that music programs are constantly on the chopping block whenever education budgets are lowered. The question that is constantly asked is, “why”.

Although music has been shown to help improve test scores, improve physical and mental abilities, and help people get involved, it is so much more than just that.

Some have even told their life story through music. The definition of music is loosely defined through people, but the contribution of music plays a definite role in society. Music sometimes defines a whole cultural. The educators of music must not only wrap the concept music into a student’s learning experience, but they must show the relationship between music and life. Will Earhart explains the purpose of music in his article, “What is Music for?”

Ethan Nguyen Ms. Bowen English G-6 27 February 2018 Can playing video games improve people’s academic qualities and school grades? Throughout the history, gamers are generally thought of as a dumb, anti-social person, but recently researchers have discovered that video games could make you smarter than the average person. One person could say that video games distract from the academic goals and ultimately disrupt a person’s grades for school.

Video games education is a method of teaching by using electronic games as the learning material. Teenagers from fifteen to eighteen, who have been called as “K-20 students” [1] or Net Generation since mid-1990s, playing video games as pastime leisure and expose to digital multimedia more often compare to the older generation. The issues of implementing video games education has been the subject of debate within education and sociology communities due to its appeal to contemporary students. Discussion among sociology scholars focus on the aggressive behaviour and hostility of youngsters who are involved in a video game in a great length of time and a specific type of games [2]. However, some academics argue that video game becomes an interactive learning platform of social education, especially with players verses players (PVP) games.
Mariefaye M. Divino II-HC Prof. Gerry Areta “The Use of Pop Culture in Education” Popular culture, unlike how it is usually viewed by many people, is not that easy to define because until now, its definition is still emerging and changing ever since.
