- Well, as a creative arts teacher, I've always found like the arts to, I would say, open up an individual emotionally, allow them to connect socially with others.
But one thing I found with podcasting, which was kind of slightly different than just learning music, was it really, I would say, activated the student voice or the inner voice in some of our youth.
Some stories that I would hear from parents would be, "My child is now coming home, and all they're thinking about is who they have to research about."
So now they're not just listening to music on YouTube or, I would say, or even learning music, right?
Or doing a piece of artwork, but they're actually using skills that can be applied to other jobs, other paying jobs, right?
And that's a tangible thing.
