experimentation and technological advancements provided musicians, and non-musicians,with new ways of creating, exploring, and programming music, as evidenced by the electronicmusic explosion in the 80s [6].A key motivation for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education is to helpstudents make connections between practical applications of various disciplines [7]. The domainof musical acoustics rests squarely at the intersection of music, science, mathematics, andtechnology, and can provide an environment to make these connections interesting andmotivating for students. Prior research on introducing such courses in basic physics, for instance,that discussed musical waves and sound, served to motivate students and give them a
