Hearing is Believing (BG)

This weeks reading was very interesting to me. I like how it made you pay attention to get a better understanding of the material. I agree with a lot of what Phil said. Music and lyrics today are more about the words and message rather than the sounds. Today many people pay more attention to the words or lyrics of a song, rather than the background music. Listening for the message. I love to listen to music and one thing Ive noticed is that every song starts out in the same way. Every song starts out with a catchy tune to keep the listener and then the lyrics come in and the message is given. teachers today use music to teach students, and by using music, something that the students are already interested in, the student has a better chance of learning and remembering the message and the lesson. Pictures are another good way of getting a message across. A powerful picture can stick in your head alot longer than words alone sometimes. i think that today visual and audio learning is playing a bigger part in learning and helps more than just words and presentations alone.
