Barrett, The Honors College Thesis/Creative Project Collection
Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University proudly showcases the work of undergraduate honors students by sharing this collection exclusively with the ASU community.
Barrett accepts high performing, academically engaged undergraduate students and works with them in collaboration with all of the other academic units at Arizona State University. All Barrett students complete a thesis or creative project which is an opportunity to explore an intellectual interest and produce an original piece of scholarly research. The thesis or creative project is supervised and defended in front of a faculty committee. Students are able to engage with professors who are nationally recognized in their fields and committed to working with honors students. Completing a Barrett thesis or creative project is an opportunity for undergraduate honors students to contribute to the ASU academic community in a meaningful way.

For my thesis I chose to complete a creative project. This project was to start my very own vocal studio as a vocal instructor. I began by researching different business components, such as, policies, contracts, pricing, websites, etc. I then used this research to form my own policies, contracts and social pages. I also took a survey of vocal students at ASU, with IRB approval, that covered what they have liked or disliked bout past and urgent vocal lessons, any advice they had fr me, and different singing techniques that they found to be helpful. After completing this I recruited students and began teaching. Half way through teaching I surveyed my sunsets, with IRB approval to find out what they enjoyed or disliked about lessons and then repeated this survey at the end to see if improvement was made. I followed this up with a survey and a summary of everything learned and discussed.
