Through this project and work, Summer Resident Destiny King conducts the research and presents findings through blog posts that highlight each of the music educators interviewed, an art piece to represent the language of what is deemed as success in each educator’s classroom, and a digital framework to synthesize findings from the dialogue sessions.

Through this capstone project, Danny will create and exhibit a profile for each of the artists interviewed, along with an artistic journey mapping of their artistry, and an analysis of the project’s main inquiries.
