Individual reflection

1. LSKM 221 turned out to be a very interesting and fruitful subject that I benefitted from so much. I knew very little knowledge in the beginning of the semester but thanks to my energetic and passionate music lecturer and very useful power point presentations and videos I increased my knowledge.

2. * Noted down what I learned from this module is just validation of actually how much I actually enjoyed it.

*The explanations of what is expected in an assignment I found challenging. Sometimes less is more.

*I found the individual reflections meaningful. We all are different in our ways of thinking and explaining or understanding a task but at the end all of us is unique is his or her way. When coming to the group assignment it was like an eye opener.

*I would make contact to the lecturer asap if I do not know or understand something. Even after a zoom meeting when I still do not understand I should reach out. No reason to be ashamed.

3. -The teaching of art and music in the classroom will benefit me as an educator in the Foundation Phase classroom. Music teaching improves concentration levels of learners. Music teaching has also been proven to be effective in classroom management.

-Choosing the correct song for a specific grade to teach.

-I found everything valuable in this module.

Collaborative reflection

*Groups one learn more and you share ideas and get help asap if you do not understand.

*No challenges experienced. Or maybe just to get everyone together and responding in time.

* I think challenged and corrected.

*I had fun with my group. I learned a lot from my fellow teachers.

Thank you
