  • Cochran,-Diana---Seeing-Inside--The-Sea-Inside-.Pdf
    “Among college-age youth (20–24 years) in the United States, suicide is the third leading cause of death.”1 Our youth today struggle with emotional and mental issues which are sometimes manifested in self-destructive behaviors or even attempts at suicide. Thus, I believe the Spanish film “Mar Adentro” (The Sea Inside) is powerful and relevant to our college-aged students. It relates the true story of Ramón Sampedro who is paralyzed in a diving accident and spends the next twenty-nine years of his life fighting for the legal right to carry out an assisted suicide. He loses the legal battle, but does find someone to help him end his life. He sips potassium cyanide from a straw as this person films his death. This event, which occurs in Galicia, Spain in 1998, sparks a national debate in Spain about the legality and justification of euthanasia, assisted suicide, and suicide in general. In the aftermath of Sampedro’s death, the filming of which was exposed to the public, his suicide assistant (a close female friend) is arrested, then released, and a popular campaign erupts in Spain with many claiming to be “the one” who helped him die. Even politicians show their support for his decision by signing a document stating they helped Sampedro to die.2 I use this film in a 300-level course called “Hispanic Culture through the Media Arts”. One of my objectives in the course is to begin to develop the skill of comprehending a wide variety of topics in films. This movie certainly helps in that regard.

  • 02257 Passage Title: Music: the Ancient Basis of Education
    Passage Information Passage Code: 02257 Passage Title: Music: The Ancient Basis of Education Music: The Ancient Basis of Education 1 Music has been part of education for thousands of years. The history of education overlaps with music and science. Why should this be? We will better understand this relationship when we consider the beliefs of great thinkers from the past. 2 Philosophers believed that students should learn music. They saw patterns in music that appeared in other parts of the natural world. Music reflected the beauty found in nature. The ancient Greeks used a word similar to “harmony” to describe the most perfect beauty. This kind of beauty had form and balance. There was harmony in ethics, mathematics, and art. The notes of a harmonious chord follow a pattern. A painting shows harmony when the colors and lines do not conflict. The ancient Greeks’ idea of harmony could apply to almost any field of study. The ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras was famous for his views on music. He believed that the entire universe follows the same elegant structure as a piece of music. In his opinion, studying music and studying astronomy were equally important. To him, the movement of the planets was as graceful as a symphony. 3 Plato, another Greek philosopher, said that music should be the first form of learning. He compared the educated mind to a tuned instrument. Children who studied music tuned their minds to think beautiful thoughts. In ancient India, thinkers also connected music to learning. These thinkers used a term similar to “song” for music.
