36 Reflections on Learning
I read over my work and evaluated the quality of it; was it well thought out or rushed? I look to see what is fine in the meantime and what can be improved.
What I know now about using AI.
AI should be taken with a grain of salt. AI lacks the human touch to an answer, it tells what it knows. It has been programmed. When using AI, interpret it more for inspiration than word for word. It could spit out complicated sentences, almost like quantity over quality.
Medicine and art connection
Visiting the Bill exhibit, one thing that stood out to me was his harmonica. Bill’s time in the institution was not pleasant. The best thing to come out of it was learning how to play harmonica. It was his escape from the horrors that surrounded him. Bill continued to play harmonica for the rest of his life. Not only did it bring joy to him, but to those around Bill too. They saw how much harmonica meant to him, his special talent. No one could take Bill away from his harmonica.
Music Therapy
Rhonda Miller, a music therapist working with hospice, came to visit our class. It was insightful as to how powerful music is in times when health fails a loved one. I learned that being a music therapist in hospice care is not all about witnessing death. It is bringing life to a bleak time, for patients to get a chance to enjoy a good time before it’s too late.
