A piece about the hierarchical classification of educational goals and cognitive skills.

LYRICS:

In the garden of the mind, where knowledge flowers bloom,
Bloom’s taxonomy, in the room, dispels the gloom.
Remember, understand, apply,
Analyze, evaluate, create, under the sky.

Framework of the mind, structured and refined,
In every kind, and bind, and lined, we find.
Climbing the ladder, step by step,
In the prep, and step, and rep, we’re adept.

Cognitive, affective, psychomotor, too,
In the view, and stew, and new, we pursue.
Skills, attitudes, actions, in harmony,
In the symphony, and ceremony, and testimony, we’re free.

Climbing The Ladder

A track about the cognitive theory that processes verbal and visual information through separate channels.

LYRICS:

Words and pictures, side by side,
In the tide, and wide, they reside.
Dual pathways, in the brain,
In the rain, and pain, and gain, we train.

Dual pathways, in the night,
With every sight, and fight, and light, we write.
Verbal, visual, separate streams,
In dreams, and themes, and teams, it seems.

Paivio’s theory, in the mind’s dance,
In the glance, and chance, and stance, we advance.
Coding twice, memory’s key,
In the sea, and free, and tree, we agree.

Dual Pathways

Delves into the idea that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

LYRICS:

Shapes and shadows, in the mind’s eye,
Forming wholes, in the sky, we try.
Gestalt’s puzzle, piece by piece,
In the peace, and lease, we cease, and release.

The prism of perception, in the light,
Breaking sight into colors bright.
Patterns, wholes, in the dance of thought,
In what’s taught, and sought, and caught, we’re wrought.

The figure, the ground, in the mind’s play,
In the day, and fray, and lay, we say.
Closure, similarity, proximity,
In the city, we pity, and ditty, and committee.

Shapes And Shadows

Celebrating the support and structure provided by teachers and mentors.

LYRICS:

In the construction of the mind,
Scaffolds stand, strong and kind.
Guiding hands, holding tight,
In the fight, and night, we ignite the light.

Scaffold sky, high and wide,
With every stride, by our side.
Building dreams, layer by layer,
In the air, we dare, and share, and care.

Vygotsky whispers, in the wind,
With every find, and bind, and grind, we’re pinned.
Zones of development, reaching high,
In the sky, we fly, and apply, and rely.

Scaffold Sky

Delves into the impact of environment and reinforcement on behavior.

LYRICS:

Echoes bounce in a chamber of thought,
Reinforcements sought, in battles fought.
Stimuli, response, in a dance so old,
Behavioral gold, in the mold, we’re told.

Behavioral echoes, in the night,
Shaping us, in the neon light.
Rewards and cues, in a timeless game,
In every frame, we’re never quite the same.

Skinner’s box, or Pavlov’s bell,
In every tell, a story swell.
Conditioned lives, in patterns bold,
In the cold, our actions fold, and unfold.

Behavioral Echoes

Celebrating the active role of learners in constructing their own understanding.

LYRICS:

Walls of thought, built stone by stone,
In the mind’s vast, uncharted zone.
Knowledge not given, but made,
In the light and the shade, it’s home-brewed, home-made.

I’m the architect, the constructivist,
In my world, meanings twist and shift.
Building bridges, tearing walls,
In my mind’s halls, I heed the call.

Experiences, the blueprint base,
Understanding, a crafted space.
Reflection’s tool, in my hand,
On this cognitive land, I take my stand.

Wall Of Thoughts

Exploring the concept of thinking about thinking.

LYRICS:

In the chamber of the mind, where thoughts are intertwined,
Lies a layer, rare and kind, where we find, and bind, and rewind.
Thinking about thinking, a reflective link,
In the blink, we sink, and link, brink to brink.

Metacognitive melody, in the mind’s symphony,
Playing softly, in the key, of self-discovery.
Layers deep, where secrets keep,
In the leap, we peep, and sweep, and steep.

Self-awareness, in the night,
In the flight, and plight, a guiding light.
Strategies, tools, in the cognitive pool,
In the cool, we rule, and fuel, and duel.

Chamber Of The Mind

About the space where learning occurs with the help of a more knowledgeable other.

LYRICS:

In the zone, where minds meet,
Learning’s heat, in the street, we greet.
Just beyond, what we know,
With a show, we grow, and stow, and flow.

The zone of proximal development,
In the ferment, we’re sent, and bent, and meant.
With guidance, we cross the line,
In the shine, we fine, and pine, and align.

Vygotsky’s vision, in the light,
In the fight, and night, we sight, and bite.
Scaffolding, building high,
In the sky, we try, and imply, and fly.

Cross The Line

Celebrating the ongoing journey of learning throughout life.

LYRICS:

On the road, that winds and bends,
With no ends, our minds, it sends.
Learning, a journey, wide and vast,
In the cast, we blast, and last, and fast.

The infinite game, in the sun,
Never done, we run, and stun, and fun.
Lifelong learning, in the heart,
From the start, we part, and dart, and chart.

Curiosity, our guiding star,
Near and far, we mar, and tar, and par.
Knowledge, a river, wide and deep,
In the leap, we keep, and seep, and reap.

Infinite Game

About the application of knowledge and skills from one context to another.

LYRICS:

Waves of thought, from shore to shore,
What we learn, opens more doors.
A ripple effect, in the sea of mind,
From old to new, what we find, we bind.

Ripple effect, in the learning stream,
From one dream to another dream.
Transfer of light, from thought to thought,
In battles fought, and lessons taught.

Crossing bridges, from known to unknown,
In seeds sown, and growth shown.
Applying what’s learned, to new heights,
In the flights, and sights, and lights, ignites.

Ripple Effect

Moroccan-Swedish Musician, physician assistant, and health educator
