Write listening journal about Mali music

Make a point, e.g.:

o Offer an original musical, social, or cultural analysis based on the evidence offered in

class and/or in the listening examples themselves. You may be speculative here—that is,

you don’t have to rigorously prove your point: this is a journal entry, not a full paper. o Or, ask a thought-provoking question that responds to what you learned about the

listening example from class. Explain why you are asking this question.

o Or, compare two or more listening examples, optionally comparing the examples you are

discussing to examples from other weeks.

o Or, write in an interesting, creative, and original way about your response to the music:

what feelings it evokes in you, and why you think you might be responding that way.

• Be original. Entries that only repeat or paraphrase what the instructor or another student said will

  receive no better than half credit, and may receive no credit.

• No bibliography is necessary unless you are citing something from a published source or

  website
