Topic: Does music really increase brain activity? and does it help with academics?
Purpose: my main purpose is to really find out if learning/listening to music really increase brain activity and what people think about music in schools. Also, I want to convince people that music is important in schools and also it should be in the schools.
Audience: My main audience would be college students (i.e., music majors, education majors, sociology majors, psychology majors, and neurological majors), sociologists, psychologists, musicians, educators, teachers, and neurologists.

This is a really really interesting topic. On my synthesis paper, Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligence touched on this idea, so you might want to check that out.
I really like your topic! I think it will create a very interesting paper. For your audience, you should narrow it down to only a few groups of people instead of numerous different audiences
Look at some statistics (test scores maybe) of students who are involved in music vs. those who aren't. That could really bluntly state why (or why not) music is an important part of schools' curriculum. My own high school's music program was very poorly funded, so maybe if you find information on this topic, you could expand upon it and make a call for more funding for music programs in schools. Just a thought.
