Assignment 3: Practices

  • Please answer the following questions:
    • What are the national policies regarding arts education?
    • What are the best practices in arts education in the country?
    • What are the best practices in arts education in your local area?
    (You might want to include the contributions of indigenous or community-based cultures or other non-formal structures that may notget the attention they deserve.)
  • Ask an artist in your community to work with you on creating future lessons that integrate national and indigenous arts into yourcurriculum. Share feedback on how your meeting went. What ideas were discussed? What plans have you made together? (3-4 paragraphs)
  • The arts can be a powerful tool for problem-solving and creating new, communal civic structures/forms. Call together a group of people inyour community, perhaps a variety of ages. Come together around the intent to solve an issue or to create something new. Use music,movement, dance, writing, the spoken word, the visual arts as vehicles for gaining new vision and insights. Perhaps you will stage a play orcreate a community sand mandala. (To learn more about sand mandalas, click here ). How might you plan for this first gathering? What resources do you have? What do you need? Tell about the planning and theoutcome of meeting with this group of people. (4-5 paragraphs)

can someone explain to me, an ignorant high school student, why the trend of the graph doesn't follow the fact that the higher frequency a sound wave is, the more power it is, hence, making me think the phons output would follow this general trend?
Joseph Reply
Nevermind i just realied that the graph is the phons output for a person with normal hearing and not just the phons output of the sound waves power, I should read the entire thing next time
Joseph
Follow up question, does anyone know where I can find a graph that accuretly depicts the actual relative "power" output of sound over its frequency instead of just humans hearing
