Reflection: I love the idea of learning through all the senses. I really liked how the soundscapes stimulated my thoughts. I think
that by using soundscapes students interest will be immediately piqued. I also think when students are required to create a
soundscape they have to think about the subject differently. I also think that creating soundscapes lend itself easily into research.
Also in order for students to choose a sound they will explore many sounds. Sound can also be an element that is not given much
thought. Just by utilizing them in a classroom will make all participants begin to pay more attention to the sounds around them.
