Why should you listen to my presentation? Because virtually everyone listens to music, relatable, accessible, relevant.
music predates agriculture and perhaps even language
No culture has lived without music
Music is connected with certain parts of the brain
Explain what parts of the brain music is connected to and how it can affect learningMostly areas of the right side of the brain, but music affects many areas of the brain that aren’t usually associated with music ie parts of the brain associated with pleasure or stress
Some music can make you happy
Some music can make you sad
Major keys and consonance sounds can cause happiness, reduce stress, as in next slide
Listening to music can affect hormone levels in the body, reducing stress and presenting a peaceful feeling
Minor keys can cause sadness and dissonance can cause negative reactions
Infants respond negatively to dissonance
But infants respond positively to major tones and consonance
People who are less educated in music experience higher states of emotion when listening to musicWhich could be the reasoning for why young children react to music
Music can have meaning and invoke emotions all on their own
Music invokes more emotion when there is significant meaning attached to the song
When life events and music are connected, music can be therapeutic
