Jazz improvisation as an expression of the self: Exploring Coltrane’s identity in the album: A Love Supreme   Introduction -What is improvisation? -What role does it play in music performance? – Generation of new musical ideas and discovery of unique ways to express existing ones   Musical improvisation has been defined in literature on creativity as the process by which a work is realized “in the course of performance” due to compositional decisions made in real-time. [1] Unlike composition, however, improvisation involves the conception and execution of musical ideas within a considerably short period. The activity takes place in the moment and, because it is spontaneous, arguably presents the least edited version of how the performer thinks, encoded in behavior.[2]  It directly reflects the immediate emotions, ideas and sensations of the improviser. Since these are ever-changing, the improvising musician can hardly be confined to a specific way of executing a particular piece of Music.[3]  As documented by ethnomusicologists, improvisation is the norm rather than the exception where musical traditions are transmitted orally. In many cases, this is attributed to the…

Only when I started working on the floor with the advanced practice registered nurses, APRNs, did I realize that I had only had a minor perception of their vast responsibilities because currently, I have a broader and deeper understanding of what their role entails. Before this situation, I had respect for the experience of APRNs and was just familiar with their roles as I needed to see how broad their roles were and their impact on patient care. Nevertheless, through my daily communication and seeing their implementations in my clinical practice, I realized the tremendous difference that APRNs play in healthcare provision. Over the period, I have worked with APRNs, and the meetings have been positive. Their competence in the evaluation and quick management of complicated cases, as well as collaboration with other healthcare providers, has been motivating, especially when I sometimes face difficult moments with patients and their families. It is a great example for me. Through the interaction with them, I realized how their advanced training and clinical experience make it possible to perform life-saving procedures without the…

Unveiling Truth in Plato’s Allegory of the Cave   Student’s Name Institution Professor Course             Unveiling Truth in Plato’s Allegory of the Cave The parable emphasizes how education served as a beacon of guidance and revealed the true nature of the outside world to the enlightened cave dwellers. According to Plato, education is an active search for truth that requires people to work toward enlightenment to escape the limits of the cave. Society is a perfect ally on this path, providing the support people need to pursue intellectual freedom. Plato defined education as the light that leads people out of the cave of ignorance. It encompasses a comprehensive strategy that fosters autonomous thinking and a complex knowledge of reality beyond the simple transmission of factual information. The allegory implies that society has to do more than disseminate knowledge; instead, it should enable a whole educational process that equips people to handle the intricacies of reality on their own. In addition to information, one must be able to critically analyze and recognize the complexity of reality…

US History Significant historical events have enormously impacted African American life in the United States. Systemic racism and inequality are rooted in slavery, which started at the beginning of the 17th century and continued until around the mid-nineteenth century. Also, the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation signaled the official abolishment of slavery, but this period was tainted with continued racial discrimination and violence (Stewart, 2021). During the Jim Crow era, highlighted by segregation and disenfranchisement, racial inequality was further cemented right throughout the 20th century. Furthermore, the 1950s and 60 Civil Rights Movement resulted in significant legal and social changes marked with landmark legislation such as the Civil Rights Act of The years after plentiful pertinent laws were enacted (Stewart, 2021). The fight for racial justice and equity in Black police brutality, mass incarceration, and economic inequities continues. Racial justice progressed after slavery’s abolition, the Emancipation Proclamation, the Harlem Renaissance, military integration, and the first Black president. Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) The 1896 Plessy p. Ferguson was a watershed Supreme Court landmark case, especially for African Americans, and it was an important milestone…

Individual vs Group Video Conferencing Video conferencing is a means of communication that makes communication between individuals in different locations easier. This type of communication can be between two individuals or between a group of people. The number of people in a video conference defines the effectiveness of the communication strategy. First, in individual conversations, the speaker and the listener are more focused and attentive. They utilize nonverbal cues like eye contact, nodding, and sitting posture to express their emotions and feelings concerning the conveyed message. In group video conferencing, focusing on the individuals is difficult since many faces are involved. Participants may be distracted by notifications, messages, multitasking and different faces on the screen. Group video conferencing limits non-verbal communication, unlike individual communication. This is due to limited screen space and obstructed camera lighting. It’s easy to concentrate in an individual conversation since a single face and emotions from one person are displayed. Also, taking turns in individual conversations is easy, maintaining a smooth transition. There may be technical delays in group video conferencing due to interruptions and judge…

These concepts shaped the American identity and mirrored the aspirations of a developing country. Most Americans thought the War of 1812 was boring. War afflicted the…
