Student Studio‘s Josh Jordan works Friday with Tyra Newton on her lyrics as she and other teens at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Hall County are learning to mix music. The Student Studio program teaches students mathematics and literacy using the platform of music production. Students recently read an article about teenage domestic violence and bullying are writing and recording a piece of music with a positive message.
Last Friday afternoon after school, 10 students gathered in a computer lab to listen to a beat they’d created a few days earlier. Some of the students bobbed their heads in time with the music while they wrote lyrics for the song. Others tapped their foot while they anxiously waited for their turn at the microphone.
