I really think that the homework showed what Paul was going to do related to the classroom. He tied his first lesson to the homework assignment that was due indirectly. Since Paul decided to do this, students could have understand or figure out that the next lesson would somehow be connected to how African music has impacted the music throughout different countries.
Paul used video clips for the musical examples so students actually had the chance to see what was going on while the music was made. I believe that this will help the students see what is exactly going on and help them understand the concepts better. To improve his lesson, I think that Paul could have used an alternative to video-clips such as mp3 files to see if the students were able to see where the music was created.
