Project Outline

Your name: SarahBeth Stott

Project title: Development on guitar basics and how to play a song on the guitar.

Project description:

I will teach basic notes of the guitar, its chords, and tabs then teach how to put them together creating a song.

Project context:

This learning program will be built for mostly students attending BYU-H, but is open to anyone who has a desire to learn basic guitar chords, and/or how to play a song.

Project rationale:


BYU-H doesn’t offer a guitar class, so students here who don’t already know how to play the guitar have to learn on their own. It will be helpful for them to have a little beginning help to get them started. I know I needed it when I tried to teach myself how to play.

Instructional objectives:


1) The students will be able to tune the guitar before beginning to play so that they can play a well tuned song.

2) The students will know basic guitar chords so they can know how to make tunes.

3) The students will be able to play a tune on the guitar by putting the notes together that they learned to create a song.

Instructional method:

I will teach this by using video clips showing someone playing the guitar and teaching each note. I will also be using pictures, especially of guitar notes to show the students what they look like on paper and then explain how to read them. I will teach guitar basics using music, audio, as well as pictures and video.

Assessment:

I will create an online quiz or questionnaire for the visitors of my website to fill out about how well they learned from my website.

First day of class


Hi I'm SarahBeth. I come from the great state of Utah. I study ICS at BYU-Hawaii and am just starting my new minor in IDD. Each great ideas of my 2 brothers. I'm the youngest of 5 kids, and yes I am very spoiled. I get the best of it. I get 4 incredible heros to watch and learn from as they grow up before me. And my parents.. Well lets just say they are the cause of 4 heros. This is my 3rd semester here and definitely not my last! I can't wait to find out where life takes me next.
