Abstract

The article discusses the use of music as dynamic classroom tool in teaching dystopian literature in the U.S. It states that the album of heavy metal band Queensrÿche was used by a high school teacher to connect to the classic novel "Nineteen Eighty-Four." It notes that using music in various forms such as hip-hop, heavy metal and country music in the classroom from elementary school level to college level can be effective.
