Senecio: Playing piano - ideas, and doing it too, J.S. Bach piano playing Youtubes at WUaS's Bach page, John Palfrey talking in this inspiring panel and including about Andover Academy (the "Harvard" of high schools), Sal Khan, Khan Academy and digital dashboards, A computer application for feedback at WUaS for flourishing technically and happiness-wise in learning?, A teacher might be a parallel sharer of feedback, Creative time here creating WUaS ... :)


Hi M,

Just getting back to playing the piano again ... currently "First Lessons in Bach."

I've added some of these Youtube videos of someone playing some of these pieces, such as -

"First Lessons in Bach Book 1 No.2 Minuet BWV Anh 115 G Minor (Anna Magdalena Notebook) 小步舞曲"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJLDDZMvQOY - which I can begin to play with, and -

"First Lessons in Bach Book 2 No.7 Gavotte BWV816 French Suite No.5 G Major 嘉禾舞曲"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knzKqLkdfsY - which is a little too fast for me to play with it, but nevertheless I can play one hand more slowly, and both hands quite slowly, after hearing it.

I've added a few of these only to the JS Bach wiki school at WUaS, as well  -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Johann_Sebastian_Bach - and these videos and this page are helpful. (See, too - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Piano).


I also came across John Palfrey talking in this inspiring panel - "Learning in a New Era"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfsQm7wvlnQ (watch this if you get a chance - it's a great conversation) - also touching on Sal Khan and digital dashboards, - https://www.khanacademy.org/about/blog/post/58354379257/introducing-the-learning-dashboard - for learning calculus, for example - and added a reference for this to -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Practicing_-_Playing_a_Musical_Instrument - of all places.

Although I've wondered about designing a kind of computer application for feedback at WUaS for singing in my blog before - e.g. http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2013/10/wilsons-bird-of-paradise-cicinnurus.html  and http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2013/04/bali-tiger-how-to-marry-two-databases.html - how to apply this dashboard idea for flourishing technically and happiness-wise in learning to play a musical instrument at many different levels?

A teacher might be a parallel sharer of feedback.

Back to piano playing here ...

Creative time here creating WUaS ... :)

Happy New Year ... with a happy new year's email!

Love,
Scott
