The document provides instructions for an assignment asking students to do a 15-minute deep listening exercise outside, then write a reflection on their experience. Students are told to choose a meaningful place to sit quietly, focus on their breathing, then listen without distraction to all the sounds for 15 minutes. Their reflection should introduce the activity, describe the location and why they chose it, give details on the sounds they heard from start to finish, and explain the thoughts, memories, and emotions they experienced during deep listening. They are also asked to reflect on what they liked, found challenging, and whether they interpreted the sounds as musical like composer John Cage.
